Not Quite There in Document Exchangeability - Version: 3.0 Patch 3, 6/27/2009 07:24AM PST

Finally decided to remove from my system for now. The last simple document I prepared for my team, all Windows users, was rife with format issues in tables that hid data from view. I had to continually open the document in MS Word just to ensure fonts and formats. Finally finished the edit in Word. If that's what you have to do, what's the point?

BTW, I found that Pages was much better at exporting to Word providing consistent results.

Spreadsheet is another area. My company uses scripting extensively. Keep getting runtime errors when loading company spreadsheets.

Neo is not a bad effort, just not ready yet in my view to use as an outright replacement for Office where everybody (almost) is using it.

I applaud the development of this OO.o variant. It's the only one still under active development for the PPC users (and thanks to the high cost and high quality of Apple gear, there's still plenty of them) so we/they are not left in the lurch as other developers leave a good chunk of the Mac crowd behind.

A great product - Version: 3.0 Patch 3, 6/7/2009 04:53AM PST

I needed a solution to replace my older Office Suite and decided to give NeoOffice a try: This product is just excellent, with a nice concept, is fully compatible with all MS.Office files and is stable and ... cheap! Highly recommended.
