> Why wouldn't most companies try to get employees to use Libre Office instead of MS Office? Shouldn't it be sufficient for most people?

Should be, but when it comes down to it, it just isn't Microsoft Office. Kind of like GIMP isn't Photoshop.

> Btw, are there some features that you feel that you're missing?

As a Mac user - full integration into the desktop experience. We get the same from Microsoft Office, but, of course, it's Microsoft Office and we're used to it there.

Look, I'm not going to claim that it makes sense. However, if you're going to beat Microsoft Office, you have to be far, far better than it. No almost-there, not equal, but demonstrably better.

And not on moral grounds, either. Most users aren't going to give a damn about moral grounds.
