One thing is Outlook 2016 is integrated with the Skype for business package so
you can see if co-workers are currently on-line without going to a separate
application. I do prefer the menus in Outlook for Mac over just using the
ribbon on my Windows side. At the office though, I tend to read via threading
using Apple Mail and general reading / responding using Outlook for Macintosh,
unless I am running a corporate copy of Windows in a VM, in which case I still
use Outlook for Windows.
My current frustrations with Outlook on Macintosh are as follows:
1. When multiple messages are selected, instead of saying 6 messages or 6 rows
selected it will say 36 cells selected.
2. The auto-expand / contraction of threads when reading by thread gets very
confusing. This can be disabled in options though.
The viewing of contact cards in Outlook for the Macintosh is much better than
what happens on the PC side.
Observations above are on a corporate Macintosh connected to an Exchange server
running Office 2016 on the Macintosh and Outlook 2013 on the Windows side.
Best wishes,
Jonathan
