Bradley Carpenter Business Owner Chose Microsoft 365 Zoho does a decent job but is lacking in the refinement of its product.

User Testimonials
	Microsoft 365	WordPerfect Office
Likelihood to Recommend	I usually recommend Microsoft 365 to my clients to keep them away from the Exchange server (sorry!) Our business has a lot of issues with exchange email functions and copy machines. I always recommend they download the desktop version and use the online version as needed. You never know when you will be without an internet connection, but you can usually trust your laptop will have a decent charge, and you can still be productive! Let it sync when the powers are back on - or your connection is alive. TN Tracy Novack Administration Read full review	If you are negotiating a document, using WordPerfect can be a problem since so few people still use it and while it is easy to save a .wpd document as a .doc, the reverse creates all sorts of formatting mayhem. However, WordPerfect has great page numbering options and easy macro/template creation. Incentivized DW Donald Wall Principal Read full review
Pros	keeps me extremely organized. It is so easy to link calendars, emails, and documents. keeps me well connected. It is so easy to send a quick message on teams or send an email to a group (for example, my particular team within the company). easy to use. Everything is straightforward, making it easy to find an answer to a question. There is even a search option to figure out how to do something within Microsoft. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	WordPerfect Office makes merging documents very simple and I can do more elaborate merges easily. WordPerfect Office's reveal codes is a major plus! I have used it so many times to find extra coding in a document that is creating problems. Incentivized Linda Behrman Director of Membership Read full review
Cons	I wish it was a little simpler to integrate things from one Microsoft Feature into another one. Perhaps I just don't know the tricks for that yet...after all these years of using it. I didn't like how it defaulted to saving the document automatically with changes, like Google Docs, but it seems that has now changed, and is better now. Generally, I really like how the suite works as is. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Quattro Pro, wholly adequate, but beginning to lag Excel No integrated eMail program. Database (does anyone use these anymore) hasn't been updated in years. Incentivized Herm Harrison Vice President Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	I am completely satisfied with the product, and helps me on a daily basis. I do not the exact cost (it is not a cheap suite) but on the medium and long term the return on investment is guaranteed. Incentivized Lisandro Fernigrini Sr Data Engineer Read full review	We are married to it for life. Incentivized Riva Schwartz Office Manager Read full review
Usability	It being the default office suite means it's user experience and idioms are things that everyone is generally very used to and fluent with. The sharing is relatively simple, being directly hooked into Entra AD, and expiry being a first class concern. It's usability decreases at scale, with multiple people simultaneously making edits can make documents unusable. JA Josh Armitage Modern Engineering Practice Lead Read full review	It works fine, few crashes. Incentivized Riva Schwartz Office Manager Read full review
Support Rating	Over the past 8 years of using Microsoft 365, I have noticed that they change vendors often. This always leads to a poor experience in the beginning, then levels out after some time for the company to get things worked out. As a customer, it is really frustrating because I don't have time when something isn't working to have them "look into my issue" and get back with me. They have even closed a ticket I specifically told them to keep open. Your applications are only as good as the support. Incentivized Sam Livermore, MCP, iTIL Lead Systems Administrator Read full review	Corel Support is pretty solid providing timely reactions due to issues as well as the forums page where users can deposit questions or ideas for others to help out.

Alternatives Considered	BTE, this search bar is not the best; I couldn't find Google Suite. In any case, it's challenging to find a suite with advanced tools that serves as an office. Google comes close, no one uses OpenOffice (hyperbole), and there isn't much else to use. If you add to that the recent collaborative functionalities, nothing really stacks up or compares; this has everything a person in an office (oversimplifying) needs to get work done. Incentivized Giovanni Jurado Business Analyst Team Lead Read full review	OpenOffice is great because it is free. For people on a budget you can't beat it. No question that WordPerfect is the superior and more powerful product, but not an option for everyone. Oddly, OpenOffice seems more capable at working with Microsoft Office format than WordPerfect. Incentivized Terry Ingoldsby President Read full review
Return on Investment	Microsoft 365 has really been effective and cost saving option for our organization in terms of managing the mailboxes, collaboration and messaging. There is multiple must have features which comes all together in one package and therefore is cost effective. The only negative impact according to me is its inability to protect the environment or domain from external attacks effectively.
