Office 2016 in the office

Anyone have any experience with this in the work environment? We are migrating to Office 365 and have delayed the implementation of Office 2016 for now. We have a couple of test users that have run into a few problems. MS will probably force the update by February.

What version are yall running right now? I'm on Office 2013. From what I've read the interface in 2016 is not much different. What kind of problems have the test users run into?

2016 is pretty much the same except it arbitrarily doesn't work with any of the 2013 standalone office products... like visio or project. PITA designed to make you repurchase those more expensive products.

We've had some users have issues with outlook 2016.
The google apps sync program doesn't work with it. We've had to roll back to 2013 for office 365 subscribers.
We have also had some users with exchange 2007 that won't work with outlook 2016 but that's the way Microsoft supports the number of previous versions of exchange with the current outlook. Haven't had much feedback or issues with the other programs in the suite.

Just went from office 2013 to google apps at the office. No regrets, plus it saves money. We have a customer that is trying 2016 and they haven't had any issues thus far. Of course we are trying to sell them on Google. :)

Only for docs, or did you go from exchange to gmail as well?

Yes, of course. The cost savings and ease of management are significant. Moving to gmail has been a tough sell or clients because people are scared of change so we're still recommending O365 to everyone we provide MSP/consulting services to.

I could never replace Excel with Google Sheets.

If your spreadsheets are that complex and you are a business, then you shouldn't be using excel. Find applications that use databases to suit your needs.

Excel is terrifically nimble at allowing my team to do ad hoc analysis. If reporting was our main job, then other tools could be viable.
