OOo 3.0 Reviews¶
- OpenOffice 3.0 a fresh blow for Microsft By Adam Turner November 25, 2008, The Sydney Morning Herald:If you're spending a fortune on MS Office licenses, you should at least beevaluating OpenOffice to see if it meets the needs of your basic users, ifnot your power users. Microsoft Office still has a place in manyorganisations, but OpenOffice 3.0 is a viable alternative for many people.
- OpenOffice.org 3.0 Full Review by Edward Mendelson, PC Magazine:But for the first time, I'm ready to recommend this new version as a viablealternative to Microsoft's offering. It still has rough edges, but it has animpressive feature set, a generally lucid interface, pure open-sourcecredentials, and - in the current economic climate - the decisive advantageof being absolutely free.
- OpenOffice offers end run around Microsoft By René A. Guzman - Express-News Web Posted: 10/17/2008 12:00 CDT, My San Antonio Life:In these tough economic times, it's nice to know you can still get qualityfor free. Take OpenOffice.org 3, the new office suite sure to give Microsoftnothing but further grief.
- Review: OpenOffice.org 3.0 By Dave Bailey, 24 Oct 2008, vnunet.com:Version 3.0 of OpenOffice.org does add significant new features, and sincein these financially turbulent times it costs nothing to install, it couldreduce bottom line expenditure significantly if deployed extensively. Weexperienced few problems with the suite that couldn't be circumvented withworkarounds. We think system administrators should give it a close look,especially if they're rolling out thousands of minimally used copies ofMicrosoft Office with only features like basic formatting, spell checking,and word count really being needed.
- OpenOffice 3: Faster, uninspired interface Posted by Seth Rosenblatt, October 13, 2008 4:59 PM PDT, CNET Download:After using OpenOffice's MS Word analog, Writer, all day, I can confirmthat this update is worth it for the improvement in response and load times,if nothing else. The installation is still enormous, with an installer about130MB for Windows users and 160MB for Mac, but the installation processis smoother. From start to finish, it clocked in at around 5 minutes,significantly faster than installing OpenOffice 2. People who use OpenOfficeas their primary productivity suite should take advantage of the OpenOfficeQuickstarter, which noticeably accelerates program launch times and has beenmade even faster in version 3.
- The LXF Test: OpenOffice.org 3.0 Monday, October 13, 2008 - 11:59 AM - Posted by M-Saunders, Linux Format:Overall, does OpenOffice.org 3.0 provide a step forward? Yes, with extrafeatures and some performance improvements at startup, although in use itstill feels sluggish and clunky in places. Does it justify the jump in majorversion number? We're not convinced, but the 2.x series has been around fora while and this release does present a fresh face, and more scope forextensions with the internal changes. On balance, the new OpenOffice.orgrelease is a step forward, and if they can speed it up a bit for 3.1 we'llbe more than happy.
- Treat yourself to a suite alternative: OpenOffice.org 3.0 October 12, 1:30 PM by Jason Brooks, S.F.

OOo 2 Reviews¶
- PC Pro Magazine delivers its verdict on Version 2:Our pick of the low-cost office suites has had a much-needed overhaul, andnow battles Microsoft in terms of features, not just price.OpenOffice.org 2 earns in Issue 135, Jan 06. The magazine's reviewer concludes:OpenOffice certainly doesn't lack features compared to the market leader,and most of its ease-of-use issues stem from people's familiarity withMicrosoft Office rather than an inherent problem with the program itself.As such, you should certainly try OpenOffice's offering before donatinganother UKP100 or more to Microsoft's coffers. After all, it's free.
