Editor's review of OxygenOffice Professional 2.3

- "Breath even more life into OpenOffice"
- Version reviewed: OxygenOffice Professional 2.3
Spun off from OpenOffice.org, OxygenOffice Pro is virtually the same program, but with a few more features. Fortunately, it's much like its parent, and you can opt out of whatever features you dislike during the installation.
Originally called OpenOffice Premium, a misnomer like the current "pro" designation, the interface and basic functions remain unchanged from the source. OxygenOffice is all about the add-ons. Most notably it comes with a huge clip-art and photo gallery, 3,400 images strong and easy to drop into any Oxygen document. There are also extra fonts, templates, and sample docs included, useful for those who have forgotten or need a refresher for business letter formats and such, but they're not for every user.
One function that should have wide appeal is OooWikipedia, which lets you search Wikipedia without having to jump to your browser. Support for Visual Basic in Excel, and smoother WordPerfect document and graphics importation are small but useful improvements. There are also enhanced help menus and user's manuals, nice touches that reflect the extras that Oxygen gives. Despite these extras, we'd like to see more OpenOffice plug-ins included before making this a must-have.

Version: OxygenOffice Professional 2.3
"Great tools for users with some experience with a fully featured Office suite"
Pros: A lot of the functionality is similar to MS Office Professional. Of course there are enough nuances that performing more advanced functions requires experimenting. I've used MS Office products for several years, but am convinced that there isn't any longer a need to purchase those products or upgrades.
Cons: The documentation is available via the internet only. It would be nice if it could be downloaded as a .pdf file.

Version: OxygenOffice Professional 2.3
Pros: The ability to integrate with Windows office software is great and a much needed additions. The clip gallery is also nice but the quality is lacking. Much better clips could have been avail;able from public domain sources.
Cons: Nothing, its all up hill from here because it's free and it works well. If you aren't interested in buying office productivity software this is the program for you.

Version: OxygenOffice Professional 2.3
Pros: How could U possibly want 2 pay 4 a program like Microsoft Office when U can have a program as robust as this 4 free
Nothing but Accolades
Cons: If having 2 many features could qualify as a con, then that would B my only complaint. The learning curve is very high, but if U want an awesome array of control over documents and the like, thats the price U have 2 pay
