When GG die, nobody cared, but when Dooku died the Galaxy wept 3 days and it was a ceremonial day in the hole universe.
Everybody cared when Grievous died...even the Clones were sad that they now don't have any worthy tacticians to go up against. When Dooku died, nobody noticed except Anakin and Sidious who watched him die, then when the ship landed in Corouscant, people didn't even ask about Dooku.
I didn't mean the droids, the CIS had 1000 of systems of inhabited planets and for them Dooku was a hero, their leader, they loved him and thought he was a honest guy trying to change a corrupt republic, they wore wrong of course, but they didn't know his true nature. And when he died, it was a great blow to the CIS, the ROTS novelization says something like this, that Dooku was for CIS, what Palpatine was for Republic, the gut who holded his organization from failing apart- both Palpatine and Dooku.
In ROTS opening credits, is says they are heroes on both side, obviously the Jedi for Republic and Dooku for CIS.
This is what Republic citizens thought of him, this is from the novel.
The political heart of the Separatist Confederacy, Count Dooku, is known for his integrity, his principled stand against what he sees as corruption in the Senate. Though they believe he's wrong, many respect him for the courage of his mistaken convictions.
Imagine what CIS inhabitants thought of him and the novel says something like these
that Dooku was for CIS, what Palpatine was for Republic, the guy who holded his organization from failing apart- both Palpatine and Dooku.

That Dooku was a bigger blow to the CIS, then GG, you know, what i was fighting with General G.
What did he do then? GG led the CIS to countless victories against the Republic and killed countless more Jedi in the process, we don't hear too much about Dooku except he runs away from Yoda after AOTC and gives Sidious the Death Star plans...
