LibreOffice Reviews & Product Details - Page 11

What surprised me most about LibreOffice the first time I used it several years ago was that I had been paying an Office license when I could do the same thing for free and save money. Technically the application is very similar and although at a more advanced professional level is not up to the simplest tasks is a more than sufficient solution.

The default interface can be improved but fixing it is very simple since you only need to access the options menu and change the theme of the icons so that the visual aspect of the application improves considerably.

It also has support for many formats of other similar applications such as Microsoft Office, OpenOffice and other similar, in addition to the formats themselves. From LibreOffice we can continue modifying documents created with other applications without compatibility problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the default interface does not quite convince me and it is possible to change it, we find another problem and that LibreOffice options are very chaotic in my opinion, finding the option we are looking for is very complicated because the task of changing the theme It can take several minutes until you find a way to do it.

LibreOffice is an office application suite with a GPL license, free of charge. Being open-source, it is under constant review by its creators. It takes up little space, is easy to install, and consumes few resources. It includes a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation software, and databases. There is a version control system to record changes made by different users. Additional plugins can be installed, such as the converter to PDF format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Among the biggest disadvantages is that it does not allow for the online collaborative work that is so necessary today. It cannot be shared on the internet.

The learning curve is moderate if you have never used it and are accustomed to Microsoft Office.
