My org uses Google Docs as office suite and I find it quite good and prefer it over any flavour of Microsoft Office. Nevertheless, there's a _huge_ and vocal push against Google Docs suite in favour of Microsoft Office from some internal stakeholders. None of the complaints from this group go beyond something to the tune of "I know Excel better".

As good as LibreOffice may be (I personally think it is _not_ better than Google docs) and as much as I like the romantic idea of open source office suite, I don't believe this will be successful/sustainable in the long run. The bulk of office suite users are not interested on using alternatives. These users want office running on their machine, period. I'd even venture to say that most users would rather have apps installed instead of Microsoft Office Online.

If someone's a power user of Excel, I can understand them wanting to stay on Excel even if personally I pretty much just use Google Sheets as an easy to use and format table.

I dunno. Maybe if they rarely share documents? But, for me, online sharing and collaborative editing of documents has been a game changer.
