   I've recommended @libreoffice as an alternative to Microsoft Office to at least two people over the phone today.

     @matthew @libreoffice @EvilSandmich From my experience, it's only a big issue if the documents in question are "heavily decorated". It's mostly noticeable when opening PowerPoint files in LibreOffice Impress. For basic text documents and spreadsheets, it should be fine.

     That sometimes happens!
     
     I fully let them know that there are some Microsoft specific features that LibreOffice doesn't have and that they can always buy Microsoft Office later if they need it.
     
     I have so many frustrations with Microsoft products that I am actively promoting alternatives.
