    I am finding that is takes enormous amounts of time to open Office files. Also, the UI is less intuitive than Office 2007. I have had a harder time finding items in Symphony than I did in 2007 moving from 2003.

    Really I have high hopes for the product - but much like other non-ms "office suites" (except for perhaps iWork) I'm left wanting to return to the old faithful of Word, Excel and PowerPoint.

    I am sometimes able to open files which are corrupted in recent versions of MSO and they still displays good in LS.
