hey what is up guys welcome to ram overload today i'm going to be talking about what are the five best microsoft office alternates okay so now most people know that microsoft office is going to is a page subscription now and you know most people don't like that the one-time fee was fine but they don't like paying an ongoing fee for this um luckily there
are many different alternates out there and you know some are just as good in my opinion um so definitely check them out if you are not into paying for the monthly or yearly fee for the new microsoft office okay so the first one i would like to mention is free office okay it's by soft maker right and it is compatible with
office it works on all platforms so windows mac and linux and it has a very similar look to office right so you guys can see over here these are the ribbons right so you can try the classic way or the one that was similar to office in the first place so
so they have the three options as well um you know microsoft office which the main reason people use that for is microsoft word excel and powerpoint their three versions of that is text maker plan maker and presentations okay so it's completely free and it's really good in my opinion all right moving on
the next one is called only office so only office is the free is open source so they do have a paid version for it an enterprise edition but if you want the regular edition it is completely free and that version is open source right um there is a very strong compatibility with our regular microsoft office documents though there might be some issue with images so you know if
your document does have images it might not be able to properly convert it to their version of only office okay maybe you won't be able to read it as good all right um that being said it is pretty cool they do have a lot more features in it right for example the collab feature right uh where you can work alongside
with someone else right um which you can't do in microsoft office aside from that you know it's on all platforms right and it's completely free for the free version i guess so they have their three versions as well the um spreadsheets documents presentations and they're all they also have their own
forms but aside from that it's the spreadsheets documents and presentations so let's just click into it and see i don't want to start playing that but you guys can see very similar look and feel in terms of how it works right here right um you got the ribbon on top and very
similar look in my opinion i think it's a pretty good um i wouldn't say copy but it's a good uh alternate to that so now this one is the document right so let's let it load this is using the dark theme right which you know my opinion looks pretty nice you can see the documents really well really nice in
my opinion and definitely would be worth trying out okay and last but not least this is the presentation the presentation is pretty nice as well right uh this is this would be their powerpoint very similar look and feel to it and the layout is very similar as well so
those three in my opinion are really good uh presentations of the original microsoft document or microsoft office i should say so that comes in number two number three is wps office so this in my opinion is probably the best clone you could say or you know this is what is compared to as the clone of microsoft office all right
it's really good um but there are some downsides you know this would be probably in the number one spot but um the downside is it's ad supported so you probably will see ads from time to time right um aside from that um it is a closed off software so you know it's not open source and it is developed by a chinese company so you know that definitely brings in privacy concerns
um to you you know and you know if you don't care about the ads you know the ads aren't really intrusive for anything but if you don't care about the ads or the privacy concerns then you know i would highly recommend uh doing going for this one so it's available on all platforms the windows mac linux everything so you can
see right here this is their presentations very similar look to uh the original powerpoint this is well this is just a pdf reader all right this is the word very nice and this is their spreadsheet you know really simple can't go wrong with that so that's pretty much straightforward uh the other thing about wps is they do
have over a thousand templates i believe which i believe they did advertise that somewhere over a hundred thousand my badge a hundred thousand templates you know some are paid but they are a lot for free so that's definitely a plus uh in my opinion so and like the other one i mentioned they
do have collaboration as well all right so this comes in at number three i believe all right number two would be google docs or google and they have their docs they have their uh sheets and slides you know and you know in my opinion those work really well um you know they just work
seamlessly and they're online you can do collabs completely 100 free and you know it would be nice if they had a desktop application for it you know but they don't which is perfectly fine but it's just you know i'm sure you've used it already and it works great so that's number two but number one is libreoffice so if you've definitely
searched for microsoft office alternates you've probably heard of libreoffice this is the number one replacement for microsoft office okay it has the best compile compatibility it's a hundred percent free no ads it's a hundred percent open source and it's just it it works great you know um it's a work it's available on all platforms
so you guys can see over here and this is the one that i currently use on my machine you guys can see here this is a libre writer which is their alternate for microsoft docs and you know it doesn't look similar you know they're not trying to clone it they're not trying to make it look exactly like microsoft office they have their own
unique look it's it is very minimalistic you know which some people won't like but i really don't mind if i'm doing something it i really don't care about the look i just need it to work as good um and it it really does and you know you can open up doc files um on their excel platform which is the calc right you can open up the excel sheets or csv files and they're
the what is it the impress is their powerpoint one okay and they have a few other ones i believe they have six different applications um that you can use but you know the main three that microsoft office is known for are the uh microsoft docs um or word i should say um excel and powerpoint
so that's pretty much it for today's episode you know these in my opinion are the best alternates to microsoft office um you know the top five i should say um you know if you have any questions or comments please leave them down below if there is another application that you do recommend or that's something that you use you know i know there are a lot more out there but these are the top five in
my opinion let me know what you guys thoughts are in the comments you know if you like this video make sure to give it a thumbs up don't forget to subscribe definitely helps the channel hit that notification bell other than that peace out
