TechConnectify@mas.to - Oh my gosh I just figured it out.
Okay, all you open source evangelist people: your knee-jerk reaction to come at people who are talking about a problem with whatever commercial software they use and suggest Your Favorite Alternatives™ is exactly like saying “why don’t you just buy a house?” to someone complaining about their landlord.
TechConnectify@mas.to - Actually, to borrow from @DoubleA, it’s worse than that.
It’s like talking to someone who is in a crappy apartment as though they have the agency and skills to stake out a plot of land and build their own home.
You have to be at peace with the fact that some people just want to exist and not worry about so many things. And they still have a right to complain about their situation.

You can’t know until you try it.
Professionals are trained on already available answers, often target marketed, which moves forward the penetration of such answers into broad society.
This does not mean they are good or bad, just popular.
Any alternative solution will always be compared to the more popular, even if better.
No you definitely can know.
Because if your company tells you you should use this software, you do not get a say in what software you use.
So it is either this, or nothing.
Funny how we jumped from an implied personal use to an enterprise use all of a sudden.
To which the same basic rules apply. The added problem on enterprise is that you have legally binding contracts to force the company to stay with a bad software.
