Why does MS Outlook attract Thunderbird users?

Mozilla Thunderbird's free-for-all has been a boon to the public since its inception but with the modern age, email service has been replaced by many advanced features that are offered in Outlook.

MS Outlook is an application of the Microsoft Office package suite that can be used in more than 30 languages.

It includes many advanced features like Time Zone, Meeting Arrangement, Sticky Notes, Appointment, etc.
