My experience has been that Libreoffice tools are significantly easier to use than MSFT Office products, and also easier than Google Docs and related Google enterprise products. It has usually just been the case that a company has many employees already standardized on Windows machines, and wants enterprise support contracts. I'd argue that Libreoffice being harder to administer and provide as a common tool is due to mistakes made earlier in the decision-making process, when originally standardizing on Windows or expecting browser-based solutions for these workflows. But I agree that conditional on someone already having sunk money into those mistakes, the marginal extra cost of a turn-key solution for their environment is what makes the enterprise products attractive.
