It’s a well-known fact that Microsoft 365 is the default productivity solution for many companies and its range of features is truly impressive. It includes such functionalities as document editing, real-time collaboration, file sharing, project management, email, calendaring, and video conferencing. In other words, Microsoft 365 provides both personal and corporate users with all the essential applications that allow them to get their work done effortlessly and quickly.
However, the subscription model and cost of this software as well as its security standards and policies are not appropriate for everyone, and some companies start looking for more affordable solutions.
Personally I used Zimbra for a number of years in a corporate environment and must say it had a few features on the e-mail side that I did not see on Outlook mail (popups over dates to show appointments, click to make Skype calls, etc), and it’s search through my 9 GB mailbox was way faster than Outlook. So don’t think that open source is necessarily worse at everything.
