What are the benefits of its use? Is there any advantages or disadvantages rather the Microsoft Office software uses?
Apache OpenOffice is the leading open-sourceoffice software suite for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics, databases and more. It is available in many languages and works on all common computers. It stores all your data in an international open standard format and can also read and write files from other common office software packages. It can be downloaded and used completely free of charge for any purpose.
Apache OpenOffice is more than a collection of five superb tools.
Unlike some competitors, this suite was not created from a collection of separate pieces of software. From the start, it was designed as one complete office package.
All the packages have a similar "look and feel" making them very easy to use, with common "learn once use everywhere" tools like the Styles and Formatting. Apache OpenOffice takes its "look and feel" from your computer - if you change your desktop, Apache OpenOffice will change to match.
The same tools are used consistently across the suite - for example, the tools you use to work with graphics within Writer are also found in Impress and Draw.
You don"t need to know which application was used to create a particular file - you can "File Open" any Apache OpenOffice file from anywhere and the correct application will be launched.
All the packages share a common spell-checker, etc.; and if you change an "Option" in one package, it"s changed in them all.
Information can be transferred easily between all the packages.
All the components save in OpenDocument format, the new international standard for office documents. This XML based format offers substantial disk savings compared to common competitors' formats. It also means you can access your data from any OpenDocument compliant software.
All the packages are installed in one single operation, using the installation process you are used to on your computer.
All the packages are released under the same open licensing model - there are no hidden charges now or in the future
no doubt Open Office.Org Is a goood Solution for Linux Usersand for a non-profit software Is a very good Choicebut the comparison with Microsoft Office Won't be Fair
If you are a start up, and if you dont want to pay for your software then you can RELY on open source office softwares BUT
If you are an enterprise and you have huge amount of data, Then You Should Purchase propitiatory Office softwares, It is not only the product you are purchasing but also the Services provided by its vendor.I am sure it would worth the money.
Big companies use OPEN Office such as The American Red Cross. The main advantages of OPEN Office are cost effectiveness and flexibility.
The main disadvantage is the lack of reliability and integrity
Apache Open Office, it's free and suitable for small Business
i used it randomely.but not now.I think that MS office is better than open office.
Small businesses and organizations/ firms comprised of 10-15 employees, use this program to handle the small types of work.
