I have been using OO for many years. Currently it seems to do better on things like xlsx than others. I tried LibreOffice on Ubuntu and it seemed like every document became corrupt and it kept freezing up. Unacceptable for my use. Office is good if you have a AAA membership. ;^) (to get a trip tick to find things)

At least in my usage, Instructor at University told me not to submit from
  OO anymore.  That was a year ago.  UofMemphis has a great deal for me to
  get M$ Office via my student email so I did.

Formulas in Excel don't always cross over to OO either but those are on
the esoteric statistics side of weird so you may not be under any duress
with that.  Macros did poorly as well two years ago.

I heard similar on OO and Excel formulas and definitely macros.  Wonder if
LibreOffice handles them better?  I recall some folks saying they
preferred LibreOffice to OpenOffice.
