Version: Ashampoo Office 2006 1.2
"Here is a great alternative to "MS Office"."
Pros: If you don't own or aren't willing so spend big money on "Microsoft Office", this is the best alternative. It runs great on "Vista" and can be purchased for $4.95. How can you beat that? I do like it better then "Open Office', especially for the price. whats five bucks in todays world? Nothing at all! It looks good and opens fast. All my "MS Word" and "Excel" documents open fine and it's easy to past in a photo.
Cons: Only one. It doesn't come with the fonts I like. But hey, for five bucks, you can't beat this "Ashampoo" application!

Version: Ashampoo Office 2006 1.2
"A cheap & viable alternative to Microsoft Office."
Pros: Not quite as good as Microsoft Office but much better than the FREE & very useful Open Office suite, if you can afford it. Very quick to install, quick and easy to use, taking up very little hard drive space (it can also be installed on a USB Memory Stick, thus making it very "portable"). Compatability with 'Office is generally very good. The basic languages are German, UK & US English with free add-ons for Swiss-German, French, French-Canadian, Italian, Spanish, Latin America Spanish , Portuguese, Brazilian-Portuguese, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian.
Cons: Unfortunately, at present, there is no "PowerPoint" equivalent available. The only problems I've had are very minor, and arose when swapping files about with Excel, whilst producing my beer & wine calculators for the "YoBrew" site. This should not be a problem to the majority of users.

Version: Ashampoo Office 2006 1.2
Pros: --FAST
--Portable Version for use on USB drives or similar
--Small footprint
--did I mention fast?
--if you must have power point scripting, and access type programs, they are in development (the power point like program is in beta)
I have MS office,Open Office, Word Perfect, and a couple of others. This "suite" (if you can really call it that) meets my needs better than all the others. I only use Word Processors and Spreadsheets from office suites anyway.(oh, and outlook.....) Ashampoo Office is blazingly fast compared to all the other programs. I am still, to this day, suprised at how fast it loads up. I have never had any major compatability issues - and if I ever do, I guess I have MS Office.
Cons: I really can't think of any other than brand recognition or a cleaner design but thats stretching it.

Version: Ashampoo Office 2006 1.2
Pros: I payed only $5,- :-)). When i bought some software at ashampoo i got an amazing promotional offer at the exit: i could get this office for only $5,- together with my other purchase. I of course couldn't say no allthough i wasn't realy looking for an office suite. I tested it for a bit and found it small, fast and complete, maybe only lacking advanced database functions. But who cares? I was however curious if the office would also support my native language (dutch). That didn't seem to be the case, and got me a trifle annoyed because spell-checking is a must. After looking for support i found however a very wel hidden lannguage add-on, so now i have a fully fledged office that supports dutch for only 5 bucks. amazing.

Version: Ashampoo Office 2006 1.2
Pros: I bought this product for the Word Feature, and it's solved the problem of not having the MicoSoft Suite license. The word is great, and has the features I need for my self-employed business.
The Excel is good too,same as above. All in all I find that the people who put this out are highly innovative, thinking of the customer more than some other companies.
