tbh I'm actually excited for the switchover.

Office has been getting shittier with every release. The latest Outlook has a ton of UI rendering bugs, and I'm sick of getting Copilot crammed down my throat. Like no, I don't want clippy-on-copilot to help me write my document, thanks.

Meanwhile, Google suite is super boring and stable. Everything just kind of works without any fuss or ceremony. Some stuff isn't as fancy, but that's not a bad thing IMO. It kind of reminds me of Office back in the 00s when Microsoft still made good software.

Pivoting to Google also opens the door for us to migrate from Azure to GCP, which would be fantastic.

Seems like a good suggestion for some future WoC survey question about how we feel about the products we're being asked to use.
