While I would generally agree with this, I've been learning Sibelius
for the past 5 weeks or so, having jumped on their cross-grade sale
back in October. And while I always have worked initially in Finale
using scroll view, I haven't as yet even tried it in Sibelius. And
to be honest, I'm really not missing it. I will say the method of
work in Sib is quite different and that's been my first major
hurdle. The one thing about their page view that I don't like is a
lack of a keyboard command to go from page to page or back to the
top. Maybe I just haven't found it yet.
But all in all, in my quite limited exposure thus far, it's quite
usable and viable alternative to Finale.

Well, I think Sibelius is now very, very close to being an easy
switch for an experienced Finale user. Now that they have a scroll
view was really the last glaring defect in getting stuff done in
Sibelius in my view. I don't know how people worked or work in that
silly pageview mode they have.
