Office is the last good branding Microsoft have and they're just getting rid of it, I can't believe it

Good?

It's godawful, to the point of being barely functional

My company runs on office and I write everything in Google drive, then export it to a word document and import it into office because working on office web is just a joke.

Seriously.

Sometimes it just randomly and quietly deletes some text I just typed

Sometimes it just changes layouts on other pages where I'm not even working

Sometimes it says it saved the work and it saved didly squat

I see Microsoft office as something that only "enterprise" level customers would be stupid enough to use and to pay actual money for.

They didn't say it was a good product

yeah office used to just work (mostly, and ignoring the quirks), but this past year it's been doing weird shit and generally been unreliable because of cloud sync behaviour for me
