[BBLISA] What does SharePoint break for non windows users?

[Paul Beltrani]

We have an IT vendor that's trying to convince our CFO to move to Office365/
SharePoint. I get why they're proposing it.  They're a Microsoft only
consultant and it's the only tool in their box.  Also, they stand to make
some big bucks in professional services to set it all up.

However, they're steam-rolling over the objections of a large number of
more modern users who have been using Macs, Linux and Google Apps for
Business for years.

Does anyone have recent experience with SharePoint/Office365 using a client
on any OS other than windows?  I would very much like to know what breaks
and/or causes difficulty for Mac and Linux users.   If Exchange is any
example, they'll claim it's cross platform (i.e. OWA) but in practice you
get limited functionality unless you're running Windows.
