At my work (Fortune 100 company), it is Excel and Outlook. I’m not certain why the powers that be settled on outlook.

I worked at a company that used IBM's Lotus for six months. Outlook was no longer the worst for me.

As did I. Lotus Notes is something that cannot be unseen.

I worked at a place that used Lotus Notes in the late '00s. Used to say that, when Notes launched in 1989, it was 10 years ahead of its time; and even today it's still 10 years ahead of 1989.

Outlook is very good when coupled with exchange.

Microsoft are doing their best to alienate their established userbase however, the next versions are just going to be the garbage webmail version wrapped as an app.
