My guess is upwards of 90% of users would not use features in MSOffice not available in Open/LibreOffice. Most organizations are "creatively encouraged" (ie. forced) to use MSOffice.

Similar for SQLServer - Windows shops kind of default to it.

VS is the exception.

Open/LibreOffice have better compatibility with old versions of office. Visio is another standout with no real Open Source competitor.
