I used Quark XPress, and it really felt like it had a monopoly on the professional market in the UK at the time. It didn't really innovate, it was slow and clunky. Then InDesign came along and it was a breath of fresh air.
Took many years for the transition to happen, but a lot of people in my circle wanted to see the back of Quark.

Certainly seemed like a more intuitive UI than what little I've seen of Quark, at least. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready,_Set,_Go!_(software) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready,_Set,_Go!_(software)
