Free alternative for Office productivity tools: Apache OpenOffice - formerly known as OpenOffice.org - is an open-source office productivity software suite containing word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, graphics, formula editor, and database management applications. OpenOffice is available in many languages, works on all common computers, stores data in ODF - the international open standard format - and is able to read and write files in other formats, included the format used by the most common office suite packages. OpenOffice is also able to export files in PDF format. OpenOffice has supported extensions, in a similar manner to Mozilla Firefox, making easy to add new functionality to an existing OpenOffice installation.

I think it is better than MO. The main reason is this being free of charge. But it has plethora of features and it is an open source. It does everything I want it to do and it is user friendly. Go guys!

Je l'utilise en remplacement du très vieil « Office 2003 de Microsoft » ! (il ne fonctionne plus sur Windows 10) Microsoft sait bien faire ça, rendre obsolète un logiciel, pour nous obliger à utiliser leurs nouveaux programmes hyper nuls, avec une sorte de palette qu'ils appellent un « Ruban » alors qu'avec mes anciens Word + Excel 2003 : j'avais des barres d'outils hyper efficaces et personnalisées, dessins perso des boutons qui n'ont pas d'icônes d'origine, etc. Des menus personnalisés également, raccourcis, claviers, macros, polices, etc. Bref, j'avais tout, et ils m'enlèvent ça sans aucune raison. NON je n'utiliserai pas les « Offices » qui sont sortis après 2003 chez Microsoft, car les rubans je m'en fiche totalement, je ne suis pas là pour jouer avec une tablette tactile (c'est ce qui est en train de remplacer Windows, on va avoir d'ici 5 ans un système d'exploitation qui transforme un gros PC Gamer ou autre en tablette !). Revenons à nos moutons, « Apache OpenOffice » a déjà ça de bien : des barres d'outils et des barres de menus. Puis la personnalisation. Bien sûr il n'est pas aussi facile quand on débute dessus, mais peu à peu on est bien content de l'avoir ! Ne pas hésiter à le personnaliser et ajouter des extensions, des modèles... Merci aux concepteurs !
