The new go-to Office suite!
LibreOffice is a perfect alternative for other Office suites. It's opensource, it handles multiplatform collaboration very well, and it's a breeze to switch from any other office suite.
Pros
LibreOffice is unbelievably easy to hop in for a newcomer - no matter what you've been using previously. Because most of us, its users, are probably "switchers", either from MS Office or OpenOffice, LibreOffice not only makes up for the software we've been using before - it also does a lot more, and does it in very intuitive, effective manner.
Cons
I hate the fact that I've hesitated so long to actually try LibreOffice. But after installing it and giving it a chance to shine - it was love from the first sight.
Reasons for Switching to LibreOffice
We've felt that OpenOffice was abandoned. Also, it did not handle MS Office document import very well.

Free but packed with feature
I mostly are using this software for documentation controlling for our technical operation documentation. Creating various type of document like text and spreadsheet file is doable with this document.
Pros
I really like all the tools for creating a text document that are offered by LibreOffice. No registration needed to start using the software, and the file size is not too big preventing from using much RAM resource from my old computer. Not only compatible with Linux, its also work well with my windows operating computer.
Cons
There are some of the feature that is quite hard to use and totally unnecessary to be included, like the Vlookup tools that i still can configure what exactly the function of this tools.
Reasons for Switching to LibreOffice
WPS is not feature rich for some of the tools.

Great for small group or individual use but not across platforms
As a student, I liked using LibreOffice as an alternative to Microsoft Office, especially if a professor insisted on uploading .docx files to Blackboard or Banner with no alternative file type. However, now that Microsoft is becoming more proprietary, LibreOffice is not keeping up with the features and integration, and much of the formatting that my coworkers prize are lost when uploaded elsewhere, making LibreOffice outdated in our workplace.
Pros
It's free and looks a lot like Microsoft Office. It carries out the major functions: writing a document, creating a spreadsheet, even adding formulas and embedding images. Because it is less bulky than Office, it moves faster and its documents are faster to email. Files can be saved in many formats including .doc. You can open .docx files without paying for a Microsoft license.
Cons
Many features do not open correctly when importing from Microsoft. Formatting, special conditioning, and even many formulas will not import to LibreOffice, so cross-platforming is not possible.
Reasons for Choosing LibreOffice
Google Docs did not yet import .docx files.
Reasons for Switching to LibreOffice
LibreOfffice was free and less clunky

Open Source version of Microsoft Word
It's Microsoft Office with it's older user interface that we are all used to. And it's free. There is no need to pay hundreds for Microsoft Office when LibreOffice does the same thing but free.
Pros
It's basically the free, open-source version of Microsoft Word. I have been using it for over a decade now (back when it was called Open Office), before Google Docs even came out. If you need to open a Word document that Google Docs can't open but you don't have Word, LibreOffice is great for that.
Cons
It doesn't open word doc format perfectly all the time. There are still some marginal differences some times. Which is okay, it is not expected to. But it can be great if that could be done.
Reasons for Choosing LibreOffice
We still use Google Docs for the collaboration and most of our documents are stored on Docs. But sometimes you need something to be done in Word, and that's when we use LibreOffice.
Reasons for Switching to LibreOffice
Enterprise software at enterprise rate is a little too expensive when there are better free options avaliable.

Meilleur éditeur de feuille Excel
Pros
La fiabilité et la compatibilité dans l'interprétation des caractères est le point décisif qui m'a fait basculer définitivement vers Calc de Libre Office.
Cons
Les mises à jour sont manuelles, mais peu fréquentes (quelques-unes dans l'année).
Reasons for Choosing LibreOffice
Pour sa gestion impeccable de toutes sortes d'encodages.
