1.0 out of 5 stars Overpriced at 99 cents June 13, 2012

By Marcus Adams

Costs extra for fonts and charges for updates. Be wary of apps that don't have clear costs. Developer needs to be more clear about prices.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not happy April 4, 2012

By V. Goldberg

Amazon Verified Purchase

Buyer beware: I purchased Office Suite Pro for my tablet so I could work off-line -- novel concept for the software because it will not let me do anything IF it cannot find the nearest WiFi Internet connection. What a complete waste of money and time. It would have been nice to know this before I purchased the app. Now I am hoping to find something else that is more user friendly and will enable me to work off-line because where I live WiFi is few and far between.

2.0 out of 5 stars Underhanded sales tactic June 11, 2012

By Eddie Mooney

Amazon Verified Purchase

Recommendation: Expect to pay an extra $5 if you plan to use most common fonts. Otherwise, the software seems functional.

Pros:
-Functioning Office Software

Cons:
-Tries to charge for common fonts such as Calibri, Arial, Times New Roman, Helvetica
-It is always running

At first glance, getting this app for $1 seemed like an incredible deal (1/15th of the usual price) considering it was a 4 star office suite. Without looking into it too much, I purchased it (my fault, I know). The company opted to leave out some of the most common fonts and charge $5 for them. They let you know that you're not getting all of the pie you paid for the first time you open the app. When you click to download the update they request to charge you $4.99. To me this screams, bait and switch.

UPDATE: 4/16/13

-Removed critique of permissions after seeing the reasons permissions are used. See link here for explanation (scroll to bottom): [...]
-added a star to rating to reflect the fact that I believe there is one less major issue with this software.
