2.0 out of 5 stars Open Office Not a Beginners Program, February 19, 2009

By	E. Frank (North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Frankly I got Open Office b/c I didn't want to spend the money for MS Office. Over the years I've used MS Office, MS Works and Corel products but I found it difficult to even get moving on Open Office. The outstanding thing is that as soon as I emailed for support I got a half dozen responses w/workable solutions to getting Works or Office things I'd saved to run in Open Office. A great community of users!! If you're flexible, got the brains and experience I'm certain you could easily use Open Office but it's not for a beginner or even a middle experience type such as me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Alternative, March 25, 2009

By	Freeman "Free Would Be Better" (Texas) - See all my reviews

Open Office 3 is a good alternative to using high priced Microsoft Software. There are some compatibility issues, but they are few and far between. For the most part any document you have that you saved in Microsoft Office will open using Open Office 3. What's more is you can download it for free or if you don't have that kind of internet speed or just want a physical copy buy it here on Amazon. There's even a version with support included. If you are tired of shelling out $100-$400 every time Microsoft decides they want to make a lot more money. Get Open Office. Open Office Works.
