7 months ago	ali20	5	I use libre its so goodbut microsoft (r) office is too powerfull .libre should be more powerfull
7 months ago	Koljan	5	A good program
8 months ago	aliendave	4	Libre doesn't seem to import layouts as well as AbiWord does. Also AbiWord picks out more uk spelling errors i.e. both 'organized' and 'organised' are both correct but the one with the 's' is more common. Similarly both 'customized' and 'customised' are both correct but the one with the 's' is again more common. Sorry to nit-pick a perfectly laid out, stable and free program that'll still save the day when a machines down and you're broke! :)
9 months ago	Danko8321	5	Top Linux Office suite in the market. Probably one of the best word processors out there too.
9 months ago	Ghermain	3	Ahora con la versión 3.6.0.2 puedo trabajar mejor todo lo que había elaborado con M$ y se me dificultaba, sobre todo con los PPS pero Impress funciona bien, algunas cosas no las muestra de acuerdo al original hecho con M$Off pero es un gran avance.

11 months ago	leo__sg1	5	Potente (pero sin ser excesivamente pesado). Lo mejor en ofismatica.
1 year ago	jppelt	5	So much leaner than bloated Open. M$ is far behind.

1 year ago	Simondererste	5	Just nice!
1 year ago	jesus581819	5	Works well enough!
1 year ago	newpaul	4	Don't get me wrong, I have 3 pcs with Mint and would have 4 if one of my cats hadn't pissed on a nice & warm open laptop. But there is no practical use for everyone to keep saying that LibreOffice Writer is “better” than MS Word. Maybe better than Word 2003, and capable of matching Word 2007/2010 in many aspects, but not yet there. On a very immediate level, the customization paths are a tedious & redundant labyrinth. Backward stuff. The Review tools are still in a rudimentary state, and remain strangely hidden in the interface, even though I'm now able to move docx documents to and fro between MS-Word and LO-Writer keeping all the review info with no glitch whatsoever, in a professional environment. This is serious praise. Anyway, the MS Word Review layout is way ahead in features and productivity solutions. LO-Writer's proofing tools, as a whole, remain poor in comparison. I use LO-Writer in what I call the “Bauhaus Mode”, with no rule, no useless text boundaries, and no ugly toolbars. Just the basic menu. Nice. I was able to ditch Wine & an embedded Word 2007 to use LO-Writer exclusively in my Mint. That's how good it became. A simple request: if LO-Writer could create new empty documents locally, with a right click menu, that would make life easier to all those accustomed to other similar tools... and would be more intuitive.

1 year ago	frankhjung	4	Oracle did us a favour!
1 year ago	Mintification	5	LibreOffice Writer does an excellent job at word processing. It has great compatability options, and is much cleaner than MS Word.
1 year ago	librelegal	5	LibreOffice is very reliable and updated regularly - I use Writer and Calc everyday for business purposes and am very impressed. Beste Office-Suite, regelmäßige Updates, nutzerorientiert, Kompatibilität auch mit MS-Office und Openoffice.org und obendrein eine neuartige Stiftung, die jedem Aktiven die Mitwirkung/Mitbestimmung erlaubt und garantiert
1 year ago	Philpinch	5	Great word Processor indeed!
1 year ago	-Marina-	4	Great word processor. Much nicer to use than MS Word. It would be perfect if it only had synonyms in the right click menu. Pressing Ctrl+F7 and searching for the alternative affects my productivity rates. It's much more complicated than I used to with MS Word. Otherwise perfect app! :)
1 year ago	EricVictor	4	best alternative
1 year ago	rangnar	4	Undisputable standard as Office Suite.
1 year ago	jose_manuel	5	LibreOffice Writer - the best word processor !!!!!!!!!!!
1 year ago	psyckers	5	Works very well and boots up in a second. Much nicer to use than MS Word and Open Office.
1 year ago	lol23	5	works perfect. much better than openoffice
1 year ago	Statik	5	Love this program. Use it and the other parts of the suite almost daily. Very capable. Especially happy with how it works with Microsoft files from the office.
1 year ago	ldiego008	5	Muy bueno
1 year ago	omecoatl	5	Works great for me. I use it for my college essays all the time. I've been getting A's so the footnotes and endnotes work fine.
1 year ago	ahalin	4	FOSS office applications have come so far. LO 3.4 is a significant step up from earlier versions and OOo. The compatibility with MS Office is good; but still some formatting issues to resolve.
1 year ago	kiesaw	5	Using LibreOffice on Linux Mint 12!!!
1 year ago	PV250X	5	The best alternative to Word
1 year ago	guv999	5	Excellent and straight forward
