### Pros

"Great free and open source alternitive to Office 365. Once setup it works incredibly well at home or in the work palce"

"Its easy to have multiple computers in the office use OO because of no licensing, and to be able to open and save in legacy formats to extremely useful."

"It is better than Apples native document apps."

### Cons

"I use OpenOffice Spreadsheet annually to calculate tax expenses, and have lost sooo much data today when it crashed twice."

"For students, i do not believe it has a voice-over function and I have heard some horror stories overall about customer service-related issues."

"Even with saving the files in compatible formats there are still formatting issues when opening MS Office files to Apache OpenOffice and vise-versa like spacing and fonts."
