- isbvhodnvemrwvn 4y agoI am yet to find another piece of garbage which tries to (poorly) reconfigure my headphones without being asked. The only reason teams exist is because nobody was ever fired for buying Microsoft.
- throwmeup123 4y agoSAP
- client4 4y agoSeconded
- dieselgate 4y agoDon't use SAP/concur myself anymore but it's certainly the enterprise software people complain about most every day - not meant to be a personal jab, I literally see it come up multiple times a week on HN and with peers
- matthewwolfe 4y agoThe janky enterprise “security” software that runs at 100% cpu constantly and is the number 1 reason the laptop fan spins up. AKA spyware. I’ve got the keys to production databases but for some reason can’t be trusted to update my computer or not download viruses. “Use” is very loose definition, “forced to run” is more accurate.
- andrewjf 4y agoEndpoint protection is a racket.
- Raed667 4y agoI remember one of these processes making a brand new 2018 Macbook-Pro unusable. It got so bad that I had to record the screen, showing my manager the absurd CPU usage, and input lag using VS-Code (type a letter see it appear 3 seconds later). After a week of that, I basically had to send an email saying "either the security stuff you installed works, or I can work, but both will not work at the same time"
- dragonsky 4y agoSo much this.... Crappy so called security software that only makes things more secure by slowing down the computer. I get it we need to protect the network, but you don't do that by making sure that everybody is out looking for a way to do an end run around your virus scan and audit software. I would love to know how much power is used just to run so called security software.
- Mave83 4y agoJira
- hulitu 4y ago1. Teams 2. Windows 10 3. Windows Explorer
- gfd 4y agoCitrix
- j7ake 4y agoAdobe, Microsoft teams, Citrix
- l3uwin 4y agoTeams and gsuite by a mile.
- fvilers 4y ago- Teams - Jira - HP Smart
- polartx 4y agoSalesforce
- nilubkal 4y agoDefinitely Teams ! Windows or Linux, both !
- lostlogin 4y agoRadiology software. The information system (RIS) the picture archiving and communication system (PACS) and Teams. Everything about teams.
- busboy 4y agoAutocad... Oracle document manager....
- john_the_writer 4y agoOutlook. It is clunky, and the rules seem to be hit and miss.
- rurban 4y agoWindows 10. Everything is just 10x slower than on Linux
- thorin 4y agoService Now Teams - slow, memory hungry Defendpoint for local admin - when you end up having to put your password in 20 times to install something from Microsoft, for example Jira - maybe it's just the way ours is configured but TFS/AZdevops seemed so much better Microsoft Dynamics...
- ElfinTrousers 4y agoSlack. I realize that I'm quite lucky in this regard. Slack isn't great, but it's far from the Enterprise (TM) dumpster fire that other examples here are.
