Outlook is a long list unto itself of random crap that's probably going to go wrong.
To be fair, it's not like word or Excel are any less complex, but people tend to know those apps way better for some reason.
The Web version is taking over. Just like they did with teams, they're starting a webview version of Outlook. They're very creative this time, calling it "new Outlook" 🤦♂️
It's all very dumb.
I completely agree on the view settings too. It's like a world unto itself just to sort and organize a single view of Outlook. I helped one user the other day, who simply wanted to see everything as conversations. It's an easy fix, and it wasn't the reason they logged a ticket, but it took about 8 seconds and I was already connected to their system.
Do office workers not have a requirement to learn basic MS office skills anymore?
In my experience it's often simply expected by companys that the worker just knows this stuff because many GenX/Millenials just know their ways around that, but GenZ/Alpha are in general more knowledgeable about the functions of their smartphones than any desktop applications. It will take some time until HR departments start screening their applicants for stuff like Office knowledge (again - they used to 2 generations ago)
I'm pretty sure the user I was speaking to was gen x.
Soooooooo....
