Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Office 2016 (discontinued)

We upgraded from [Microsoft] Office2013 to Office2016 as part of our natural software upgrade process. [Microsoft] Office2016 is a better product, has some new features, and a better, more polished look overall. We use it for our corporate email, spreadsheets, text documents, creating presentations, etc. Office2016 suite contains all the different software programs we require for our business.
  • Outlook is the de-facto accepted corporate email program, for a reason.
  • Excel is a mature, robust application that has seen years of improvement.
  • Office2016 has implemented newer cloud collaboration features.
  • Sometimes updates cause issues with the program that have to be rolled back.
  • Certain high-res monitors can cause image rendering issues in Outlook.
  • Some functions are not user-friendly or easily understood, such as archiving, so that can be improved.
  • Defacto leader of email software
  • Good vendor and community support
  • Complete suite of software for different purposes
  • [Microsoft] Office2016 has helped us with all our company activites.
  • It's not the cheapest option, but for the features it provides it's a good value.
  • The hosted option with Microsoft is a good ROI since it provides an affordable monthly option.
We have always used Microsoft Office products, beginning with the older versions, but we did try a brief evaluation of OpenOffice from Apache. Even though that open source software is free, it's got certain limitations and a different functionality that was missing from Office2016, so we decided not to pursue that path.

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.
