"One of the most complete programs of its kind, a pleasant and useful surprise."
5/5
What do you like best about Polaris Office?

One of the things that have me freaking out is the number of compatible formats that you can work with, recently a colleague sent me a document in a format that I thought was not compatible and to my surprise, I opened it without any problem. Another very interesting aspect, is the ability that Polaris Office offers its users to be able to install it from computers with Windows operating systems, even on those mobile computers that have Android or iOS operating systems, it is a wonder. Also, I like the stylized aspect offered by its interface, it shows that its work team cares and deals in offering one of the best graphic experiences in the market. In addition, I like the competitiveness that it demonstrates after each improvement in its capabilities, it is one of the most complete tools, it is what amazes me most of its evolution and is the main reason why I have installed it on all my devices without hesitation.

I have been using the potential of Polaris Office for several years and I have not found anything that makes me give a negative opinion, I am sure that over time they will include improvements and revolutionary elements that will make many users decide to migrate to their platform.

"Convenient Alternative Across Platforms"
5/5
What do you like best about Polaris Office?

Polaris office is revolutionary in enabling users share documents across platforms that are based on different operating systems for example Microsoft and IOS. Further, it enables one to work on a document on a device and access it on another device in real time and thus as regards this particular aspect it comes in handy in that even with multiple users working on a project, it could be a policy paper, it could be memorial or school project and thus polaris office will be helpful in such situations for real time hands on by all participants. Besides there is a whole array of programs ranging from word, slide, sheet, PDF among others and indeed it is a must have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Polaris Office?

The user features of the components of the Polaris Office are limited in scope and indeed that is so far its greatest shortcoming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very useful at all times. And when you least expect it"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Polaris Office?

When taking advantage of the possibilities are multiple. We can, for example, manage the receipt of attached documents sent to us by email. The processing of texts and documents is complete, including a high selection of compatible formats, with extensions such as PPT, TXT, DOC and XLS for viewing and editing. On the other hand, both PDF and HWP are only available in connection with their visualization.

The application has interconnection with the main cloud storage services, something that is essential in these times, essential. Since the application has been created to satisfy professionals and people who use their terminal at work, cloud compatibility is very juicy, with Dropbox, Google Docs and Box.net being present.

What do you dislike about Polaris Office?

Although it has interesting possibilities such as the opportunity to insert photographs inserted directly into the documents we are editing, sometimes this feature fails or slows down the device. However, its use in general is very inclusive This allows users to create their own documents at any time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good as an app for your smartphone"
3/5
What do you like best about Polaris Office?

It's an easy all in one solution. I used it on my phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Polaris Office?

I only tried the free version. I can understand it's trying to sell the paid version. But the ads to do so are a bit of an overkill. I would suggest to only distribute the paid version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A very portable desk."
4/5
What do you like best about Polaris Office?

This is one of those tools that makes life easier when you are away from your desk. It is very useful to open documents on portable devices, it is quite complete in terms of the files with which it works, since it is compatible with many cloud storage sites such as Box, DropBox. Google Drive, etc. It is also easy to use, it is free, it is practical and I can take it to my phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Polaris Office?

It is a very complete tool, but it has certain limitations in terms of storage space in the cloud, although it has access to other sites of similar characteristics and, although it is free, there are functions that require a monetary investment. For me it is a very good resource at specific moments, when I do not have direct access to my computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best free alternative to a very powerful but expensive competitor."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Polaris Office?

I've been using Polaris Office for years, and have watched it grow from a very unstable unfamiliar suite of programs to a very well-known formidable alternative/competitor to Microsoft Office. Polaris reads and edits EVERY Microsoft Office file type, as well as PDFs. And best of all - it's 100% free! Anyone who understandably doesn't want to shell out the $100+ for Microsoft Office definitely needs to give Polaris Office a try. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Polaris Office?

The Android mobile app leaves a bit to be desired, but I imagine that in due time it will improve just like the desktop version has over the years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

" Documents at your fingertips with only one clip"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Polaris Office?

What I like most about polaris is that it allows me to be able to see the documents from my phone, in different formats, such as Word or Excel spreadsheets, or PowerPoint presentations as well as in PDF, I use it personally to read books in my spare time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Polaris Office?

Maybe it is not so much as disgust, but it does not allow important editions in some documents so it is only informative. It is also required to open the document in a PC if you want to edit significantly and that is a limiting factor. However, to be an application that I use in the cell, it's fine Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
