Phrases like "the competition" set off my buzzword detector.

I'm not ever thinking about 'the competition' of the products I'm using, I'm thinking of other ways to solve the same problem.

I dunno, just try to stick to more descriptive terms - "It's worked really well for us compared to the other telephony systems we've used", vs "it's far ahead of the competition"? I'm not a writer by trade.

Lol, I personally would have preferred he wrote it in Shakespearian "tith functioning supercedith thus of thyne competitors"
