Review by Jerry Palmerino

As a standalone product, this is a good office suite of tools. It may take some getting used to if you are switching from Microsoft Office, but one of the nice features is the option to turn on Microsoft-style menus.

Again, this is a nice product at a good price.

The problem is that it has difficulty importing Microsoft Office documents. The imported documents just do not make it through the conversion in-tact. I tried with both Word and Powerpoint. Tables were mangled in the converted Word document and half of my graphics and color scheme (theme) did not survive the conversion. The Powerpoint was particularly bad and was unusable. Mind you, these were not complex documents. They were simply a syllabus and lecture notes for my students.

I know this is sounding pretty negative. There’s just no way around it though. We live in a Microsoft Office world.
