Word vs. Pages: What exactly makes Word better?
When I first opened Pages, I didn't like that I had to chose between prepared templates. Can't use them for my professional work. So I created a template of my own, with the styles I wanted. I set Pages preferences to open my own template from now on, and never had to deal with this startup screen any more.
But other than that, I haven't seen any disadvantages. To the contrary -- my work results have improved, invested time has decreased and my work flow has become more streamlined, thanks to improved usability over Word. I get the impression that most people favor word just out of comfort, because they got used to it over decades of breaking their fingers in order to make it work the way they work.
So I'm asking everyone here: What is it you think that makes Word better than Pages? Is it just your comfort, that you're used to dig through thousands of windows to find a cumbersome translation of what you were looking for? Is it a super function only hard core Word users know?
I was kidding, but seriously -- what makes Word so much better? I'm interested in all constructive comments. If someone can come up with a comparison list, that would be very useful. Keep in mind, what I ask for is not only features but also an overall experience and improvements or restrictions of your work flow.
