A very easy tool to use; OpenOffice can easily read files from any other office package. You can download and use this suite without any license fee. You can also use it for educational, official, public administration purpose.
Now comparing the features and advantages of both Microsoft Office vs OpenOffice suitem, you can make your choice that which suite would be useful to you. I hope you can easily make your choice after knowing the difference. Features of Microsoft Office Microsoft Office provides Office store, any user or third party can write plug-ins which allows user to extend the capability of an application.
Components of Microsoft Office: Word — It is used for drafting a documents. Excel — This Application helps in preparing spreadsheets and applying formulas. Outlook — This Application helps the user in sending and receiving emails.
PowerPoint — One can Design presentations using this software. Access — This application is used for storing data into the database.
OpenOffice OpenOffice is a freeware open source office suite that performs various functions such as word processing, creating spreadsheets, managing database, making presentation file, editing formula and drawing. Basic Features It is a complete open development process; anyone can enhance the software, report bugs or request for new features.
Components of OpenOffice: Writer — It helps user to write and edit text contents. Both of which operate as quickly as Outlook. We don't want to cast the aspersion that Open Office is a slacker though. It really is a stable and mature suite of applications, which represent great ideals and value. Just don't expect them to beat the hare, as they're more of a reliable old tortoise.
Winner: Open Office 3. Practices for maximising the business value of digital infrastructure Consumption-as- a-Service subscriptions. Microsoft Exchange servers break thanks to 'Y2K22' bug. Solving cyber security's diversity problem. With MSO, users hoping for help have to drill down deep to find answers, and the arrangement of topics by questions is both limiting and hard to scan.
With OOo, the problems with help are incompleteness and out of date and poorly written entries, but the result is equally unfriendly, even though the help system is more thorough. As for the editing window, one office suite needs only to implement a feature for the other one to copy it. And, although you can point to areas where the interface of one is easier or more efficient, such as the template selector in MSO or OOo's Navigator that allows you to jump from feature to feature, these areas are counterbalanced by other features in which each suite is at a disadvantage.
Verdict: tie. The interfaces vary in strengths and weaknesses, but neither stands out as particularly well done. The main reason for preferring one interface over another is that you are used to it.
For casual users, Microsoft Word is extremely convenient. For every feature, from templates and content pages to tables and bullets, Word offers libraries of standard layouts. These libraries are not particularly sophisticated by typographical standards. Some, like those for tables of contents, are frankly an aesthetic disaster, but for those who choose to ignore document design, they are good enough, especially in documents that will be used once and then discarded.
By contrast, the rumor is that OOo Writer's developers were required to use the word processor for their own documentation. Whether the rumor is true is uncertain, but it is true that Writer has more to offer for those who are concerned with document design.
Writer comes with very few layout libraries, leaving you to download or create them, but in compensation, it allows you a degree of control that makes it as much an intermediate layout program as a word processor.
Kerning, hyphenation, the exact positioning of list bullets, headers, footers and footnotes or endnotes—all these layout features can be set with far greater precision in Writer than in Word. To help you organize this precision, Writer is distinctly oriented toward styles. As you may know, styles is a feature that allows you to adjust formatting once, then apply the settings where needed, instead of applying all the formatting manually each time you use it.
Styles really save time when you are making major changes to layout and when saved into templates for re-use. Writer allows you to set styles for paragraphs, characters, pages, lists and object frames.
Even more important, Writer is so oriented toward styles that even a simple act like adding a page number generally requires them. Some features, like outline numbering, are impossible without them.
In comparison, Word is far more oriented toward manual formatting. Although Word does include paragraph and character styles, you have to seek them out if you want to use them. When you do locate styles, you have to drill down into menus to change them, a process that is decidedly more awkward than Writer's arrangement of tabs in a window. Nor will you find the precision present in Writer's features.
Rather than using styles, most Word users, I suspect, would prefer to stick with its layout libraries. In other words, Writer is more for advanced users, and Word for beginners. Word's orientation in particular, is implicit in the interface, which makes manual formatting tools easy to find and styles just one feature among dozens. The orientation is implicit also in the fact that advanced features like AutoText are so deeply buried, many users still believe that they were dropped when ribbons arrived.
A corollary of the difference in orientation is that although Writer is adequate for documents of hundreds of pages, few experienced users ever would consider Word for documents of more than about 20 pages. Despite the change in the interface, Word is still crash-prone at greater lengths. Word does include a master document feature, just as Writer does, but as one commenter said, files that use Word's master document feature tend to be in one of two states—corrupted or about to be corrupted.
Verdict: Writer. You have to do more initial work with Writer to set up the templates you need, but once you do, the result is more professional, precise and individual than with Word. Calc and Excel have been in an arms race for years. Excel extends the numbers of columns and rows it can support in one release, and in the next, Calc matches it.
