First job out of college used Notes. Hated it. Since then I've personally declined new work where Notes was the standard.

#12Should’ve just paid Microsoft to transition to Office 365. Leave the technology work to tech companies, stick to core competencies.

The problem is when Microsoft employees are only able to consult, don't have access to any systems, no one internally seems to own the migration process (or at least appears competent at communicating anything) and even worse, the majority of it appears to be outsourced to a third party in India. Hypothetically of course, no large enterprise would ever do such a thing ;)

IBM should just be able to run down the block and talk to them then.

Probably took a lot more effort than what I notice as an end user…but I do get the impression that Microsoft is pretty good in enterprise productivity…
