Everybody uses Microsoft, because they have to. Not because they love it or even like it.
That's the root cause of why the stores failed.
Think about it: how many people openly say that they love to use Apple products vs people who openly say they love Microsoft products?
I have never ever heard anybody say/write about a great Microsoft product.
I write all of this as someone who uses Windows, Teams and other Microsoft crap every day all day.
- dan-robertson 1y agoExcel is one example of a product that is well liked and considered extremely valuable by some people. Azure (if that’s still the name for their aws competitor) is also reasonably well liked from what I can tell. Certainly it seemed they were beating gcp by having a product people liked more.
- _pob 1y agoAs someone that works with large AWS, GCP, AliCloud, and Azure footprints I can assure you that Azure is god awful in every single aspect. Especially, but not limited to, support.
- kjkjadksj 1y agoExcel was feature complete in the 90s. Everything added since has made it worse. I have 12 cores and it takes as long as it did to merely startup as in 1995.
- IIsi50MHz 1y agoLaunching Excel 2010 is bliss compared to all newer versions. But lambda and let can be magical. And Alt-Q to find Excel features is kinda good. There's usually a short annoying delay while Excel activates the feature. And once it returns results, it never places the keyboard focus on the first result, so you always have to down-arrow instead of just pressing enter to accept the first result.
- dan-robertson 1y agoThe improved table naming and array functions seem pretty important. The flash full feature also seems quite useful.
- NuclearPM 1y agoYou never learned to use the features added since 1995. That’s the problem.
