Hi. I'm wondering if there's an alternative to Microsoft Office/Excel/Word? I've read that there's OpenOffice and NeoOffice. I'm always leery of third-party software, but when it comes to Mac, MS is third-party. I'm looking for a reliable and secure alternative. Thanks for you input.
MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2014), OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
I use and like LibreOffice http://www.libreoffice.org
It is very similar to Open Office and the two split apart 3 or 4 years ago.
Apple Pages, Keynote and Numbers could be alternative to MicroSoft stuffs.
Thanks, FoxFifth. I'll read up on Libreooffice.
kaz-k, Thank you. I don't care for the format on Pages, Keynote, or Numbers.
The free LibreOffice. It is what I use. Google "wiki LibreOffice" for more information.
kaz-k, FoxFifth, VikingOSX,
I downloaded the free NeoOffice and worked with the app. I then revisited Mac Pages and spent a little more time with that application. I realize that Pages will work perfectly for my work. I just need to spend more time using the app and familiarizing myself with the features and layout, etc.
Thank nonetheless for your help.
Open Office is the ONLY real choice, same as word, FREE
Libreoffice is buggy and its build is nasty / unreliable.
Thank you. I've decided to use the Pages.
Any Alternative to Microsoft Word/Excel/Office?
