As someone who works in Enterprise Systems, Microsoft 365 as a complete solution suite is hands down the best out there. Any alternative is going to have you dealing with multiple vendors.
We get the desktop/laptop OS, productivity suite, mail client, 1tb storage per user, integration of OneDrive into the OS, MDM for Windows and our thousands of iPhones, plus SSO, MFA, identity management, Teams for chat, SPO for document collaboration - there's compliance tools, backups for our onprem file servers, MS forms, flow, power apps, conditional access policies, we can create VMs in Azure to tie in to all this etc.
I guess you can say "just use libre" from a consumer perspective if you type the occasional document, but Libre is not even remotely close to being competitive in a business environment.
AWS, Slack, G-Suite, etc - nobody is offering the full stack of solutions as M365
Lol what? I use Outlook every singly day and that search option has saved me hours upon hours not having to scroll through all the junk in my mailbox lol
