SoftMaker Office for Windows

User Reviews

• Now for Free

  BearPuppyFebruary 6, 2013

  Pros

  SoftMaker has released a free version of their TextMaker office suite. Its a full featured version of their paid suite, equal to the previous version, i.e., you get TextMaker Office Suite 2010 for free - which also means no ribbon bar! And no account required, though you do need to register it, also free.

  Cons

  None that I've found.

  Summary

  For those of us who need large icons for the tool bars, its a real boon to productivity. Its the only suite that offers large icons, a must have for visually impaired users.

• Exceptional MS Office compatiblity

  rbsjrxDecember 22, 2007

  Pros

  Inexpensive, small, and fast, it's the first MS Office clone I've found that can handle complex word processing and spreadsheet documents correctly. I use it on my dual boot notebook under both WinXP and Kubuntu as well as my dedicated Linux (Ubuntu, Mandriva, RedHat, and PCLinuxOS) boxes. Thanks to SoftMaker Office, I only need one licensed copy of M$ Office.

  Cons

  Doesn't offer the breadth of MS Office, Open Office, StarOffice, or KOffice. Can't handle password locked Excel spreadsheets. Despite the addition of its BasicMaker VBA clone, MS Office documents with VBA are still problematic.
