I have been using Writer for at least 2 years now after almost a decade of using Word. I work in a networked environment where documents are shared and can be edited by users.
Two things in MS Word that keeps all my other colleagues to shifting to Writer are:
(a) Document locking, where one document becomes "locked" and is opened read-only when it is priorly opened by another user.
(b) As pointed out in one remark above, clear comment indicators and a better interface for entering comments.
I'd also like Writer to handle large "recorded" changes more efficiently. Not "shown" recorded changes, as Writer warns, will slow down the program.
