I'm in the process of trying to convince my company to switch to Matrix. I've setup a test server and the execs are tepidly giving it a whirl.
The problem is, we use Teams, Microsoft has its proverbial foot in our door, people are used to Teams and don't really want to switch, and the company doesn't care enough about privacy and data sovereignty to overcome the inertia and the learning curve.
They listen politely to my arguments and they agree that it would be better if Microsoft didn't get all our data, but ultimately they really don't care at all.
