    It’s insanely cheap for what you get

    Business wise it’s a no brainer

      It’s honestly pretty expensive compared to the alternatives. If you compare a business setup with windows plus office etc plus the support fee you can get all of that for free plus a much lower support fee from a variety of independent companies with Linux and libreoffice. The typical office worker really doesn’t need the few corner cases where MS office maybe has an advantage. Honestly for a business I would even go with Google tools. Same data privacy issues, but at least the product works great. MS office in the cloud is hot garbage.

        Well you got 15 words or so in before mentioning Linux.

          What else would I mention? Some doesn’t have an office suite and figure is the only other competitor.

        imnate compatibility with other organisations is a huge selling point.

        For companies at a certain scale / within a certain field I don’t think it’s even up for discussion.
