Is anyone using Evolution in Linux instead of Outlook?

As Im trying to get away from Windows I need an Outlook substitute. I had read great things about Evolution so I have been trying it. Sitting in IND this afternoon after a tasty $300 bump voucher and an upgrade on the next flight I was using it in an offline mode since there was no WiFi there. I made a lot of changes in the offline mode and when I got home and connected all of my changes were overwritten by what was previously on the server. In other words, a complete waste of time to work in the offline mode. Is this normal behavior or is something wrong with my setup or how it accesses my Exchange account (which seems to be through the Outlook Web access. (Im also struggling with the calendar but not ready to cry help with that yet. ) Thanks for any help.
