    Should I subscribe to Office 365 for my office? It's P3,499.00 per year for 5 PCs.

    The cheapest Office 2013, the Home & Student costs around 11K, good for 1 PC, but it's yours forever.

    Sir,
    sa business use hindi pwede gamitin ang home and student... Dapat at least professional edition.

    if ever less than 50 units kuhanin mo na lang yung subscription para iwas hassle sa audit.

    meron din naman na free alternatives like open office if ok sa iyo...

    I tried those free Office clones before, but there were some incompatibilities. Mahirap pag gumagawa ng report yung staff tapos mali mali ang lalabas na results.

    All our office computers are using OPENOFFICE and we do not have compatibility issues. The only problem was the initial move from MS Office to OpenOffice. After that, it was smooth sailing.

    Only compatibility issues I ever had were with a .doc file written on WPS, a Chinese clone/development copy of an obsolete Microsoft product. But those same files actually cause a looping dictionary error MSOffice on our office iMacs... which necessitates some fast and furious key-tapping to close the dialogue box and kill MSOffice at the same time.

    After getting used to OpenOffice, I don't even open Word, anymore.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    that's not a bad subscription: P700pa per PC costing you P58.3 per month for each computer.

    but according to your comments, you're only using office apps in those 5 computers. so how can you have incompabilities?

    if you make the leap to free software meron talaga incompatibilities at first until you can move all your documents to f/OSS standard files.

    OPENOFFICE opens MS Office documents with no issues. No need to migrate formats. It will read both DOC and DOCX formats which is better than if you are using Microsoft's own older Office products which is unable to read DOCX format.

    The only thing you might want to change in OpenOffice's default settings is the default save format, especially if you send files out to other people. Set it to save in DOC/XLS/PPT instead of the OpenOffice's own document formats.

    The same thing happens when you are sharing the same file between different versions of MS OFFICE.... so that issue is not really a problem of OPENOFFICE.
