Calendar vs. Microsoft Office 2016 (discontinued)

I believe Calendar is the de-facto standard for scheduling and meeting these days. If you want to use it in an enterprise environment, it has a cost per user so I consider it to be a professional tool. If you have a very small business or personal matters, Calendar outside of Workspace is a better option, although it's almost the same tool.

I'd recommend [Microsoft] Office2016 for any business that has more than a couple of users, as the software is very scalable from just a small business to a large enterprise corporation. I don't know of any case where it might not be appropriate, as even home users and students use the software suite as well.

• Makes Scheduling Easy and Better
• Keeps Calendars organized in one place
• Analytics of how much time we have spent on it

Incentivized

• Data manipulation. Excel takes the raw data we receive and allows us to digest it in ways that are useful to our business processes.
• Communication. Outlook serves as our primary means of communication and setting up appointments.
• Documentation. Word is the default standard when it comes to using a word processor and we are no different in this regard. Nearly every user has to use the application on a regular basis in order to accomplish their work.

Incentivized

• The user interface may be made better.
• Integration with other services might be improved.
• Occasionally puzzling, but nothing a quick internet search can't sort out.

Incentivized

• Office 2016 professional edition can be priced for a single user license, it would be nice to see a drop in the pricing.
• Office 2016 home edition is a better price but does not include outlook 2016, so it is not a good fit for the workplace environments.
• Office 2016 can run slowly on older systems, so you need to make sure you have a machine that is 4 years old or less for it to run smoothly.

We believe that office 2016 offers the best value when it comes to features included out of the box. The software is used in its entirety by our organization and is easily supported by our staff of IT technicians. Users find this software to be easy to learn and easy to use with minimal learning curve.

It's fairly easy to use, but the automatic formatting or capturing of formatting when pasting is wonky - especially when there are outlines or other bullets/numbered lists. Fixing and sizing up tables can be annoying, and there are sometimes formatting issues that we just absolutely cannot fix for some reason

I am an MS feedback hub participant and they certainly don't pay enough attention to several bugs several people raise it in the portal. For the enterprise, it seems to me based on my prior experience that yes, they have a dedicated team to support operations. For mid to small companies or single users, it has been a struggle. So, you are pretty much with MS Blogs and others.

Better User interface. Everything you need to manage your appointments is here, on a site with modern design and full support for collaboration. You can also connect Calendar to your other favorite apps. For both personal as well as professional

We use Microsoft Office 2016 because at the time it was the best tool for us, but now with full attention to cloud products, we may be thinking of migrating our solution to a cloud service.

Incentivized

• Seamless scheduling and data sharing between teams.
• Low cost integration and compatibility.
• Quick response time and professional management for meetings with customers and other outside collaborators.

Incentivized

• Microsoft Office 2016 saves me a lot of time daily. I have functions and macros set up that calculate and show me a lot of things just from a couple of my inputs. This would take full days sometimes if not for that.
• Apart from time, it saves me money, I manage data in Excel, I don't have to buy software specifically for that.
• Sooner or later my company will have to switch to new edition, which will hurt revenues because of a subscription model.
