The main benefit - is that it's open to improvement by you - the user ! End-users of OpenOffice are actively encouraged to improve the software, and submit those improvements for inclusion in future versions. You can even re-write the source-code if you're competent enough ! Microsoft absolutely refuses to allow the end-user to make any changes to their software - under threat of legal action if you do !

In my oppinnion - OpenOffice could(theoretically) sound the death-kinell for Microsoft office - if Microsoft doesn't change its ways. Why pay hundreds of pounds for Microsoft's office suite, which you're unable to tailor to your own needs - when you can download a free alternative which you can modify !

OpenOffice even has a forum where users can ask (and answer questions) - see related links for the official site, community forum and document templates.

Why would you need to ! The safest place to download any piece of software - is from the official web-site.

Apache is the official website for OpenOffice.


Where can I download Open Office online ?

Apache OpenOffice is the result of over twenty years' software engineering. Designed from the start as a single piece of software, it has a consistency other products cannot match. A completely open development process means that anyone can report bugs, request new features, or enhance the software. The result: Apache OpenOffice does everything you want your office software to do, the way you want it to.
