Taking the table above, many decisions can be made already. To start of the little forecast of what may be the best choice for you, lets start with a comparison of those three major office suites as well as the services provided by Google: Office Suite The bigger the choice, the bigger the torment.

The two aforementioned ones come with basically the same features as Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and company and even Google has put out their own rivaling office applications in the form of Google Docs, Sheets, Slides and more. With it’s no less versatile “cousins” out there, OpenOffice and LibreOffice, it is not mandatory to use the Microsoft native office programs. Otherwise, you will have to buy it like any other operating system in the past.Īlong with the upgrade, I have stumbled about many questions put out into the web of people that consider switching (back) to the Microsoft Office suite. Another valid reason, however, could be that the free upgrade to Windows 10 is only available until July 29, 2016! Until then, your system should have been upgraded to Windows 10. Slowly but surely, the number of people that permanently switch to Windows 10 is rising. We can only speculate about the reasons, which can range from being annoyed by the constant pop up upgrade prompt, the improvement the operating system had gone through since the launch of Windows 10, or the overall trust customers start to put into Microsoft’s newest product. Lets have a look at what the future may bring for the office suite you want to put your trust in. Should you still use OpenOffice as your go-to office program suite? Or is, with the upgrade, Microsoft Word the better alternative again? What about LibreOffice? With the regained trust in Microsoft and Windows 10, there is some debate about which programs should be used for your everyday computer needs.
