When did office suites peak?
>>106483055before that ribbon ui
The ribbon was retarded, but I recall a huge dive with 2013 snowballing into 365.
>>106483055Office 2007
>>1064830552003 ms 2011 libreoffice
>>1064831202nd this, they just updated visio in the past couple years to make visio 2007 incompatible. office 2019 is clunky and unstable
>>106483055Office 2016ribbon is great, stop being a baby duck for 1-D toolbars
>>106483120This everything after was just shit.
>>106483055Office 2010 was the comfiest for me. The ribbon isn't great but whatever.
>>106483055Never. Stop idolising shit.
>>106483055Works better than 2000 for me which sometimes crashes for some reason.Second best was 2003. The 2007 has shitty ribbon and I always hated it.
Which are the best office versions of Visio, Access, and Project?
>>1064830552024 LTSC
2019
>>106483055Overall I like the 2001 bundle better, but I'd be perfectly ok with 2003 as it's the last Office with the good GUI. Anything newer than thar is slop and fad.
>>106483120This, it was the most easy to install and activate without paying, stable and best interface. I still have it.
>>106483055Definitely 2003. I still install it for my folks since none of them can use ribbons well and the 365 shit is absolute cancer that even I can't figure out how to use without wanting to die.
>>106483055ClarisWorks had everything you actually needed, yet it was lean and clean. Everything now feels bloated in comparison.
>>106483073fpbpThe ribbon is still the most braindead ui change I've ever witnessed. Maybe Hero images in web are worse.
>>106483055all things MS peaked around year 2000.
2007 was peak
>>106484493Ribbon is an ass tulip.
>>106483120Agreed. It's still installed on my Windows drive.
All these M$ shills ITT.
>>106483055Everything older than Office 2016 was good. 2010 was the peak Office experience, in my opinion. Since Office 2019, the whole Office suite has become a bunch of bloated web apps.
>>106483120ribbon trash. it was already going downhill.
>>106483055Word 6.0
>>106484647>ribbon trash. it was already going downhill.Ribbon made working with office a lot easier you fucking Luddite.
>>106484662Brain damage talking.
>>106483055They keep improving.
Everything after 2007 feels similar enough. Genuinely doesn't affect me anymore, who is actually using Office on a daily basis?
>>1064830552016, in ma 'pinion
>>106487179Countless companies, my dear NEET.
>>106484617SOFTWARE>(there is no software inside this packaging)

Eventually they had to switch as our IT security policies became more important and formalized, but the ribbon was universally hated by just about everyone in business.
>>106487813>MS Word 2002 nigger edition
>>106487813>execsshould have made a powerpoint presentation showing a few ways ribbon being more efficient than toolbars (with mandatory made up percentages), then they would escalate the deployment of newer office
>>1064831202010 is basically 2007 with some minor UI tweaks.
>>106490383I would sit with them at their desks for hours...they never got itthey would fumble through thingsdouble click the ribbon minimizing it and not knowing how to get it backHell, I had to google a lot of the issues because its just not apparent what happened or how to undo it.were it not for the increasing need for 'groupware' (outlook/exchange) and that one of our core business tools required ms office, they all liked openoffice (current at that time) better.

>>106492713>not using the WYSIWYG mode of WP5shiggy
>>106483055Office 2019. And yes the ribbon is good.
This is who put the Ribbon into MS Office. Say something nice about him.
>>106483055Lotus 1-2-3
>>106494055I kinda miss the ribbon, it was pretty useful.
>>106494084That thing was shit, I am glad Microsoft Office post-2007 exists.
>>106483055google docs :^)
>>106484653why would you need to see more than 7 lines at a time?
