Microsoft Office. I write a lot of documents that require contant citation and updates of sources, comments, etc. I have to review documents, create tables of content etc etc. Even though MS Office is far from perfect in many of these, free alternatives such as Libre or Open Office are just terrible.
Yeah, I was going to say Excel. I'm an accountant and I regularly use Excel to its limits. Honestly nothing else comes close, though I dearly wish it did. I run Linux on my desktop and I have both libreoffice and wps installed and will use them occasionally depending on what I'm doing, but if it's anything serious I go to a Windows machine with Excel.
