The Ribbon now changes based on what feature you're using at the time and you have the ability to add or remove features to any Ribbon if you need certain features for your specific workflow. Just like in Office 2. Ribbon, as well as contextual tabs that appear only when the software detects that you need them.

Say you have sales e- mails from several parties that are sent to you on a regular basis, but need to go to another person within your company. With Quicksteps you could custom create a macro that would automatically send that e- mail on with the click of a button. Like the Conversation View features, Quicksteps is not immediately intuitive, but after some study, it will save you an enormous amount of time processing e- mails in the future. Even with the tweaks for simplifying your e- mail processing, Outlook still seems more in tune with large business clients than with smaller companies that could probably get by with online alternatives.
