"Free but not easy"
4/5
What do you like best about OpenOffice?

What is a free program that is easy to install and easy to use if you don't want to pay for the Office license, in Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenOffice?

The one corresponding to Excel is difficult to use because if you want to use it professionally, it's complicated to find things. The part corresponding to Word (Writer) is not very intuitive if you want to use more complex functionalities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review for OpenOffice"
3/5
What do you like best about OpenOffice?

It's a good software bundle for spreadsheets, doc, and presentation-related tasks. It has a lot of features to customize your test like different fonts, colors, designs, etc. The spreadsheet/excel has various fuctions/plot features available for calculation and report generation. So it possesses most of the features of MS Excel, Word, Powerpoint and the best part is it's free !!! I recommend it, especially for students who generally can't afford costly software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenOffice?

Though Upenoffice possesses most of the features of MS office software, I feel MS software is better. The latter are more convenient to use.MS Office has some more features like in MS Powerpoint, there is an option to automatically design your slides which is fantastic. There is a huge scope of improvement for OpenOffice if it is considered at par with MS Office, Google suite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenOffice?

Some of the functions aren't as intuitive as MS Office and the OpenOffice Spreadsheet functions are a little clunky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"an alternate for ms office"
3/5
What do you like best about OpenOffice?

It's almost similar to ms word, so easy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenOffice?

The formatting is not the same, so an ms word file, when opened with open office, gets a different format. The same happens in PowerPoint presentation files and excel files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
