I use it for geotagging applications (geosetter.de) on a Mac, but unfortunately part of it needs IE which isn't particularly well implemented.

Also, certain Office apps work differently between Mac & Windows (in particular, Excel), and OpenOffice/LibreOffice aren't perfect replacements.

Check out the latest version of LibreOffice (4.2), interoperability with OOXML is way improved, and as always, there are some fixes in Calc/Excel https://www.libreoffice.org/download/4-2-new-features-and-fi...

Maybe LibreOffice isn't perfect yet, but I believe it will get there.

If you find a reproducible import/export fidelity bug, ideally with a minimal test case, file a bug. They jump on those like attack dogs, and you can be reasonably sure it'll be fixed next version.
