You don't use all it's feature, but if you need part of the 10% of features that Calc doesn't support, then your in a world of hurt. When Calc gets the other 90% of the features Excel has, you also need to contend with word, Outlook, Visio and all the rest that Libre Office has a 0% solution for. I support FLOSS... But pretending that anything else does enough for many orgs is delusional. There is work and pain to get through to even have a workable solution... And it won't be as good for a long while. Massive cost savings are one of the bigger motivators... But that will be offset by the need for more internal staff. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I don't see why you would automatically be in "a world of hurt". Yes, you might be if you were to suddenly roll it out organisation wide without any testing, but no sane IT department would do that. This is why you have internal test groups and pilot groups. Once you identify the limitations, you scope out the missing features/issues, engage developers if need be, or look for alternate solutions. No one needs to get hurt. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
