minus-squaretal@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up15·2 months agoMaybe they don’t want to move to a cloud-based system. I don’t want a cloud-based office package, and I can imagine that the same might apply to them.

minus-squaremintiefresh@piefed.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·2 months agoYeah, OnlyOffice is a lot closer to the MS experience which would make it easier for people to transition. I use both and usually prefer OnlyOffice.

It’s open source….

Libre is the GOAT
