Apache OpenOffice Calc Erfahrungen

Free Spreadsheets with a lot of potential

Kommentare: Used in Linux operating systems (such as Ubuntu) and in the most recent versions of Windows. Very good alternative to the Microsoft Office suite,

Vorteile:

It meets our current needs in the company in terms of writing documents and creating and presenting reports in spreadsheets and because it is open source you can use it without restriction allowing you to save money on the purchase of licenses; its key point is that it is multiplatform and besides being lightweight you can use it without consuming many resources.

Nachteile:

When saving you have to use the MS Office format to be able to share a document, the user interface needs a good update as it is not as striking, it does not have the option to save to the cloud as MS Office does, it lacks integration with the MS Office suite so that when you migrate a document it does not lose any functionality.

OpenOffice Calc - The Best Features of Excel - Without the Cost!

Kommentare: Using OpenOffice Calc has been a very good experience overall. Though the interface is a bit different than Microsoft Excel, it is easy to learn, and the price is right.

Vorteile:

File type compatibility, cost (free), advanced features comparable to Excel, ability to save files to Microsoft native formats such as PPT and PPTX.

Nachteile:

Lack of templates compared to Excel, and the interface is bit less "polished" than what you would fine in Microsoft Excel; lack of export cross-support from accounting software

Was the go-to spreadsheet app, but ceased being developed and become unstable

Kommentare: OpenOffice Calc helped us avoid spending on purchasing commercial software for which this was a suitable replacement for quite some time.

Vorteile:

Calc has been great for importing various file formats and can also handle importing CSVs in a very flexible manner. It was easy to use and the forums often got me out of trouble when seeking support or a how-to guide.

Nachteile:

Instability of the desktop app cost us a lot of time and eventually forced us to move away from it. All the while, it wasn't able to export .xslx files, even if it could open them, which was a handicap and concerned me that our reputation would be affected because it appeared we were using outdated software if only able to export as .xls.

Same as Excel but free

Kommentare: Great, switched once and still using it. Nice functionality and compatibility.

Vorteile:

I am using Open Office spreadsheets daily. I like that it has almost exactly the same functionality as Microsoft Excel, but is a free product. I started using it back in 2009 when switching from Windows to Linux and continue using to this day, now on Mac. It is really nice that the content can be exported in XLS format for those using more traditional products.

Nachteile:

It is a little frustrating that I cannot copy-paste the spreadsheet content into Google Spreadsheets without losing formulas. Also the formatting is usually lost. I use Google Spreadsheets to share the numbers with my colleagues and prospective clients.

Does everything Excel does

Kommentare: I use this daily in my business by creating spreadsheets and other forms like timesheets, invoices, purchase orders...

Vorteile:

It's free. I use it to replace Microsoft Excel and I have not run into anything yet that I can't do. However I only use it for time sheets, invoices, purchase orders and estimates with auto calculations.

Nachteile:

Sometimes it can be hard to find out how to do something I want, but with a little perseverance I can usually find the answer.

Best alternative for Microsoft excel

Kommentare: Best and cheapest alternative for microsoft excel.

Vorteile:

It has all that a person needs for his/her personal use when he/she cannot afford Microsoft excel's subscription. You can choose what you want to delete.

Nachteile:

Sometimes formulas working in excel which is provided by someone doesn't work in open office calc. Calc has less chart options as compared to excel.

It is the best option, in terms of spreadsheets, that I have used as an alternative to excel.

Kommentare: The biggest benefit that OpenOffice has brought me is associated with its wide compatibility with different operating systems (Linux, Windows, Mac, etc.), unlike other similar programs (like Microsoft), designed only to operate with only one type of operating system.
That, added to the fact that it is free, makes its handling and installation in a good number of PC, very versatile.

Vorteile:

Both in the case of OpenOffice and excel, I have notified the developers very specific problems with which I have found. In the case of OpenOffice the developers once they verified with the information that I sent, that the problem really existed, not only made the necessary adjustments to the program, but they contacted me back thanks for my contribution. In the case of Microsoft, that has never happened and when I have seen new versions I have verified that the problem I reported is still valid. It consumes far less machine resources than Microsoft software. (approximately half according to my estimates).

Nachteile:

Accepting the reality that most of the users (including my person) use mostly Microsoft software, it is necessary a period of adaptation to use the program, since the buttons, functions and general structure are presented with menus sometimes quite different from the excel, although we are fair: whenever you change the program, or version thereof, you need a period of adaptation to use it again efficiently. For me it is more important the fact that it "hangs up" from time to time, especially when you import and modify a document from Office. I have not asked why it happens, because it could be that it was even done on purpose, simply so that each time you use less the program of the competition, a strategy that is otherwise valid.

It is the best free spreadsheet software! It has everything I need for my job. It's free!

Kommentare: It is the best free alternative that can be found, with OpenOffice Calc you will not have problems when making your works in spreadsheets and do not worry about the compatibility with other software, it can be highly compatible. And the best thing about this is that it's free!

Vorteile:

It works on different Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems. It's assistant functions is quite friendly and similar to other softwares, you can also pivot table with a friendly assistant. It has advanced functions such as VLOOKUP and conditional formatting. Read different types of files including xls, xlsx and csv.

Nachteile:

The visual interface I do not like, it is not updated to new trends. It has been installed with the OpenOffice suite. The graphics that are generated are of low quality. There is not much documentation of the problems, when one appears it is hard.

A better open source spreadsheet software...

Kommentare: Apache OpenOffice Calc is a good free spreadsheet software. We used it for more than 8 months. And we switch for Microsoft Excel. We used Apache OpenOffice Calc, create for financial statements, salary statements and etc. A good free software.

Vorteile:

We used Apache OpenOffice Calc for more than 8 months. Excellent open source spreadsheet software. Easy to use and small in size. Apache OpenOffice Calc is an absolutely free software. And this software does work on Linux systems too. A free good software.

Nachteile:

The UI doesn't look so pretty. Sometimes hard to find what we want. Must need to become familiar with the design. But a good spreadsheet software for free.

free alternative to Microsoft Excel

Kommentare: My computer sometimes has issues where Microsoft Office fails to load (especially Excel) or be recognized by my computer, and I can easily keep working by using OpenOffice. Sure, the issue with Office clears up later, but I'd rather not have to wait to keep working.

Vorteile:

The fact that it's free is huge, and can read files that you'd normally need paid software (whether Microsoft of Apple) to view.

Nachteile:

It lacks as many features as the paid softwares, which is to be expected. Some of the features it shares with Excel aren't in the same place, so there's a bit of a learning curve if you switch, or if you use both.

Ottima alternativa a Excel, completo e di semplice utilizzo

Userei tranquillamente tutti i giorni calc

Kommentare: L'ho usato per diverso tempo ma quando ho visto che alcune funzioni avanzate o formattazioni saltavano (tra diversi PC) ho preferito altro

Solo alcuni problemi di compatibilità con PC che non hanno calc

Easy to use and easy to find answers

Calc can do everything that Excel does. Sometimes it takes a little research to figure out how to do things but the community that supports it is awesome!

Nachteile:

It took me a while to get used to the way of doing things that are different than Excel.

Un software di calcolo per PC leggero, ma con tante funzionalità

Vorteile:

Occupa molto meno spazio nel mio PC rispetto agli altri software che ho installato in passato, ma ha tutte le funzionalità che posso desiderare nell'ambito dei calcoli, come il bottone Somma automatica. Inoltre, mi basta un solo clic per esportare il documento su cui sto lavorando in .pdf, anche se è possibile fare lo stesso con molti altri formati, incluso il xls.

Nachteile:

Se il mio documento consiste in più fogli e lo salvo in .pdf invece che in .xls, non riesco a salvare che un solo foglio, ovvero quello che ho davanti in quel momento.

Best and free alternative for Microsoft Excel

Kommentare: Openoffice calc is free and open-source making it more technically efficient for automation scripts. But for regular usage, it needs to cope up with Excel features and functionality. Overall its a great app for handling all our spreadsheets works.

Vorteile:

Openoffice calc is an efficient tool to open or edit spreadsheets. We use this tool especially for writing automation scripts in robot framework. It is free, open-source and loads files with lot of data instantly. It rarely crashed unlike excel or other such tools. We get the option to choose formatting of the file while launching the app every time. It easily integrates with Zephyr to export the scripts into JIRA.

Nachteile:

It doesn't have all the features like excel. Copy, paste isn't as smooth as compared to MS excel. It works great on open-source OS such as Linux or Ubuntu, but doesn't work good on MacOS. It hangs a lot on MacOS.

There are additional features that maybe Microsoft Excel does not have, but this is to do better than Microsoft, the software is already very good

One of the best tools

Hojas de cálculo para todos !

Kommentare: Probé a dejar de utilizar de un software de pago muy conocído por las hojas de cálculo Calc y he de decir que si te acostumbras no te acuerdas de Excel para nada .... Una maravilla y gratis

Vorteile:

Me parece que ser software libre es su mayor ventaja. Teniendo muchas funcionalidades idénticas a otros software de pago.

Nachteile:

Es posible que la adaptación de otro software a este no sea la más sencilla por qué te acostumbras a funciones que son algo diferente y puede costar el cambio pero después es genial.

A fine spreadsheet tool for most, but you may as well use LibreOffice Calc

Works fine for the most part, and does import all the usual web file formats for organised data
