MS Office costs a lot of money to buy for multiple users. > > **Cons**: If you use Libre Office, you should convert the files to docx / pdf before sharing with someone, else receivers get confused as they are not familiar with the file extensions > > Satisfied with Libre Office - it saves a ton of money and is easy to use. Sufficient if you are just using Word, Spreadsheets and Presentations. ----- ### "Great free office software but not perfect" — 4.0/5 > **Ben** | *21 April 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked that LibreOffice was free to use and helped our clients, of which were non-commercial, to perform their office tasks at ease without paying to higher licensing companies. > > **Cons**: I did not like some conversions of document formats and the layout of some menu items. > > The overall experience with LibreOffice was almost perfect and very minimal complaints. ----- ### "Good program for creating documents" — 3.0/5 > **Agata** | *17 March 2025* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Libre Office is free to use and good alternative to MS > > **Cons**: Limited in options compared to MS and the document does not open on some devices > > A good alternative for creating simple documents ----- ### "A great software. Can't beat the price\!" — 4.0/5 > **Carrie** | *17 November 2025* | Writing & Editing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that I can access are complete office for free and it can export into various formats that are usable in other popular programs. I've never had a problem with creating any documents or with anyone being able to read them upon my sending them. I've been using LibreOffice for years and have yet to have to pay for a word proccessing software. > > **Cons**: The cons I would say are most noticeable in the powerpoint version of the software. Often times the formatting doesn't exactly transfer over, or if I open a powerpoint file in libreoffice sometimes things go wonky and features are lost. > > Overall, I've continued to use it because the benefits way outweigh the costs. I would highly recommend it to anyone who doesn't have the budget to pay for software for documents, sheets and presentations. ----- ### "Open suite for manuscript to clinical journals, with great editing capabilities." — 5.0/5 > **Rodel C** | *5 September 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Changes and comments are easily readable during peer review, and saving in standard file types keeps co-authors in sync under varied editing environments. > > **Cons**: Compatibility with a few editors may shift tracked changes or styling, so testing is prudent before submitting external drafts for review. > > Editorial passes were content‑oriented since changes were readily identifiable and assimilated, and offline work prevented distraction from intensive manuscript revisions. ----- Page: 1 / 91\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/2035027/libreoffice?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/2035027/libreoffice) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
