   ONLYOFFICE vs LibreOffice Comments

   Top Positive Comment by John Fastman · Mar 6, 2017

   ONLYOFFICE is less functional than Libre Office, but it is open source and has the following advantage I find useful: It opens all Microsoft Office .doc and .docx files with better fidelity than Libre Office does. Especially those with embedded vector graphics, which Libre sometimes screws up. The functionality is more like Google docs or something (e.g. no plugins, etc.). But it's good to have around.

   Top Negative Comment by Daltro Auguso Campanher de Souza · Sep 27, 2022

   Onlyoffice is realy promising and amazing piece of software. However, I find it to work really bad in (poor) machines with less RAM (4gb or less). Optimization is way worse than what a software with maturity as LibreOffice can get. Also, like what other people said here, LibreOffice have more features at all, it's a more mature and reliable project.

   Positive comment by snimichi · Jun 20, 2026

   Closer to Microsoft Office than LibreOffice. That's what most folks need.

   Microsoft 365 Copilot vs LibreOffice Comments

   Top Positive Comment by Oktay Mercan · Sep 25, 2022

   Industry standart and works ok.

   Top Negative Comment by Guest · Nov 19, 2024

   NOT free! Steals all your data/privacy, and sells it to everyone they can! Then uses it to train AI to plagiarize you! Also, Microsoft is literally a multi-convicted felon! You got to have ZERO self-respect to be used by this thing!

   Negative comment by Kelson V · Jan 16, 2026

   Subscription service, does who-knows-what with your data, especially now that they're trying to put Copilot into EVERYTHING. Compare to LibreOffice which, even if you buy the desktop app through the Microsoft Store, is a one-time purchase, and your words and data stay on your own computer.

   Apache OpenOffice vs LibreOffice Comments

   Lightweight and stability.

   Top Negative Comment by 78jmb6dk · Apr 9, 2022

   OpenOffice seems to be end-of-life. It doesn't receive as many code contributions as LibreOffice and has fewer features. LibreOffice is a successor to this project and is probably better for most users.

   Negative comment by Kelson V · Jan 16, 2026

   Oracle totally squandered this project after they bought Sun. By the time they handed it off to Apache it was too little, too late, and most of the active work had moved over to LibreOffice. Apache's basically kept it on life support for the last decade.

    WPS Office vs LibreOffice Comments

    Top Positive Comment by Kat .H · Apr 18, 2020

    good ms office alternative but free version has limits.

    Top Negative Comment by John Fastman · Jan 24, 2017

    WPS has the following drawbacks: 1) The 'free' version doesn't let you print freely (ie without a watermark, if at all), 2) Unlike Libre Office, it doesn't integrate with many popular plugins, e.g. Zotero or Mendeley. 3) It's not open source and therefore, in contrast to what another comment here claims, you don't know what the code is doing, and you don't know if it's spying on you or not.

    Comment by coth · Aug 11, 2023

    Worst point about WPS is that it 2019 version has a forced Chinese regional standards (decimal and thousand separator). WPS 2016 used to respect regional standards in latter versions, so as 2019 in very early versions. But since few years separators are now hardcoded.

    High compatibility, small files, platform compatibility, stability, speed, low demand on resources.

    Positive comment by ndlinn · Sep 24, 2020

    Easily the easist, fastest & best designed Office alternative, though it may lack some advanced functionality (I wouldn't know, as I primarily use it for standard, basic office suite use)

    Positive comment by Guest · Jul 12, 2019

    Pretty similar to MS Office (uses the ribbon interface), very complete and powerful suite.
