If I didn’t have Ink Pad with Mac I’d use this program **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Leilani H. | Cashier, Hospitality, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 21, 2019 **What do you like best about ThinkFree?** I usually use Ink Pad for Mac however, this program is the best substitute if it isn’t available. I’m able to organize documents quickly and save them safely. This program has an awesome spell check by the way and it best comes in handy especially if I am at an unfamiliar office space. For example, if the office doesn’t use Mac computers and uses another brand I would assume that Think Free is available because it was readily available at my old office space when I usually used Mac computers. I would recommend to anyone. **What do you dislike about ThinkFree?** I dislike that it didn’t come installed on the current Mac I own. I would love to also see more advertisements online at least if the company wants to keep their services a little more on the “secure” side. **What problems is ThinkFree solving and how is that benefiting you?** I need to always have professional communication at work or maybe even if I am in class and Think Free provides a rich space of vocabulary and lots of support behind it. ### 2. Decent...might be better off with Open Office. **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2019 **What do you like best about ThinkFree?** I like that the feel is so similar to Microsoft Office. As a long time Microsoft user, I am already comfortable with the overall feel of it, and menu placement. It also accomplishes the task of being a workable Microsoft Office replacement. **What do you dislike about ThinkFree?** It costs money. Plane and simple. Since Open Office is a free alternative and Think "Free" is not, it's an easy decision for me. There is also no menu customization. This is a small detail, but an important one nonetheless. **Recommendations to others considering ThinkFree:** Give it a try if you don't like the Open Office (the free option). It may very well be if you don't like Open Office, Think Free will meet your needs. However, the reason most don't go with Microsoft is because of cost. If you're cost conscious, go with something else. **What problems is ThinkFree solving and how is that benefiting you?** Benefits are simply that we don't have to pay as much for a full Microsoft office subscription, but we still have access to all of the main features. ### 3. Cheap, Professional and Light **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Peggy T. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 05, 2018 **What do you like best about ThinkFree?** The software seems much lighter than MS office for me, it loads fairly quickly and doesn't consume lots of resources. the pricing is a must mention here, when you snub the world famous MS office for something else the pricing is a factor to consider. in comparison ThinkFree is dirt cheap and everyone can afford it. it loads all the office files smoothly and never had a compatibility issue so far. the software is available for windows, Mac, on web as well as on mobile devices so you can work on the go. they got some great tools such as the formatting tools, icons, the charts as well as the editing is fairly easy. you dont have to pay for ThinkFree as a recurring payment but as one time payment for life which is really awesome. **What do you dislike about ThinkFree?** They fail miserably in case of designing and templates, I found that you can't even compare them with MS office, such is the difference. I find it hard to work with macros in ThinkFree than other office suites. they lack in case of add-ons, of course, ThinkFree isn't popular as OpenOffice or MS office and so the add-ons available are very less, also there isn't much templates or designs available for download for ThinkFree, which makes it look like you have to do a lot more work when you're on ThinkFree. **Recommendations to others considering ThinkFree:** This is one of the best MS office alternatives available in the market, they do offer a 2 month trial so try it and find for yourself. **What problems is ThinkFree solving and how is that benefiting you?** Thinkfree is an office Suite like the MS office with similar functionalities. its cheap, light weight and do support all the office files. ### 4. A bare-bones, reliable office package. **Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nathaniel W. | Squad Leader, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2019 **What do you like best about ThinkFree?** Very good cross compatibility and accessibility, fast loading times. I also liked the installer, it was fast and simple and did not try to add extra fluff. **What do you dislike about ThinkFree?** The UI is very difficult to get used to, collaboration tools are weak. Google drive does everything much better. **Recommendations to others considering ThinkFree:** Please consider using the G suite, or MS office, or Openoffice. But thinkFree is frankly terrible. **What problems is ThinkFree solving and how is that benefiting you?** Word processing from my phone at the time was very difficult- this was one of the few android apps I could use. Today, I don't know what problems ThinkFree would solve. ### 5. Good Alternative to Office Suite **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Madison C. | Software Developer, Consumer Goods, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 14, 2018 **What do you like best about ThinkFree?** As one of the best alternatives to the Microsoft Office suite you should expect almost the same features as Microsoft Office. The price is also lower than its competitor which is a very good thing. They support multiplatform such pc and mobile phones. A good feature its that they support a lot of laguanges **What do you dislike about ThinkFree?** The support of the software is not very good and you need to make separate payments for mobile and pc.
