In the office I will always use Word in case I have to email the file to someone. Pages and Word are more evenly matched and while Word has a richer feature set, I find Pages easier to use. I prefer Keynote over Powerpoint and even in a business environment I tend to use Keynote, unless I need to collaborate or share with other Windows Users - feature wise it is similar to Powerpoint and I find it more intuitive and has better graphics handling tools - for example Magic Move.
In terms of features and functionality you need to look App by App. So if you are sending professional business documents to other people, unless you know that they are a Mac user I don't recommend using the Apple Apps, always use Microsoft Office for Mac. Complex Numbers spreadsheets in particular do not export well to Excel and visa versa. However from a business professional point of view you can quickly run into compatibility issues, even if the document just formats differently.
However first in general terms as others have said, a lot depends if you need to share documents with other windows users, who generally use Microsoft Office for windows.Īll of the Mac Apps have the ability to export into an equivalent MS office format, so for simple documents you may be able to get away with converting and sharing with MS Office users.
