The corp I'm working at moved to Outlook Web.

It's so hostile about downloading attachments through anything but OneDrive it's comical.

Every fucking version displays our HTML email signatures differently.

So, we can expect more security breaches?

Microsoft: Move along .. Nothing to see here.

All of Microsoft office products haven't changed for the good in more than a decade. I still use office 2007 on my personal desktop and 90% of the features and buttons are in the same spot as the current office 365 offering.

Only thing that is an improvement is live collaboration, but that's getting constantly screwed up by one drive sucking ass.

Why are Microsoft employees so fucking stupid?

8 thousand executives making product decisions from the top down and trying to cram every facet of the business into every other product.

I'm pretty happy with Thunderbird on all my devices. It's not quite perfect, but it's hard to make an argument that Outlook is better. It'd have to be a very specific use case I think.

The good news is that Outlook doesn't confuse anybody who hasn't used it in years (or never). Last time I did was when I worked at MS. Hasn't been a problem since.

Bullshit, new outlook is total garbage. I dragged a folder inside a folder in the left column and it fucking disappeared. Had to revert back to classic, otherwise folder was in a black hole. Plus other issues like plugins.

I install classic on every computer I setup now.

how shielded are enterprise accounts from the data harvest?

[–] mholiv@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

Very much so.

They are paying for the service and expect appropriate treatment.

Companies generally frown upon their data being taken. It’s only consumers who use “free” services that really suffer from this. After all, if you’re not paying you are the product.
