Comment French Military Police are enjoying the success (Score 1) 407
Are they enjoying the switch?
I'd like to see some comments from the police employees who have been made to switch. I regularly use Firefox and Thunderbird (although I primarily use Konqueror and KMail for business) but I have friends and clients who refuse to switch or have made the switch on a trial basis, only to go back to Outlook+IE later. The main reason being "they don't like it" / "they're not used to it" / "doesn't display this [in]correctly", etc, etc.
I've no doubt this switch to open source will be a good thing in the long run for the French police and many other organisations, but it interests me how the employees deal with it, do they find it frustrating and so on? If so, does it end up having a negative effect on work flow, etc?
