Softmaker FreeOffice 2018 offers seamless Microsoft compatibility

SOFTMAKER HAS revealed a new version of FreeOffice – the freebie version of its alternative Office suite for Windows, Mac and Linux.

As Microsoft prepares to launch Office 2019, one of the best free packages on the market has been revamped to include, amongst other things, a ribbon dock.

Softmaker is proud to boast that even enterprises can use FreeOffice, although the paid-for tier is still available. It contains Textmaker 2018 (Word), Planmaker 2018 (Excel) and Presentations 2018 (Powerpoint).

It’s compatible with open source document types and for the first time, it can manage Office formats “without compromise”, plus if you’re an old-school type, you can turn the ribbon off and go back to old school radio buttons.
