I have been using OO/LO for several years now in production and I have 
found it to be no more buggy than the various Windows Office alternatives.

The only time I have come to grief is when trying to share data between 
users not using OO/LO, otherwise I have been able to make extremely 
complex spreadsheets and reports that none of my clients are aware were 
made using LO/OO.

Note, I serve out all my products as PDF documents, or supply my users 
with files in older formats (e.g. Office 2000 documents).
