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

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

WordPerfect OfficeReasons for Choosing Apache OpenOffice Calc
Every time a new version of Microsoft Excel was released, it seemed the interface actually got worse - and the price would go up - substantially. After doing some research, I was impressed by the features offered by OpenOffice Calc, and quite surprised that it was free. OpenOffice Calc has been great - and I wished I had switch over sooner.Switched From
Microsoft ExcelReasons for Switching to Apache OpenOffice Calc
OpenOffice had similar features to both Microsoft Excel and Corel Wordpect Office spreadsheet software, and I had also read several reviews. It was free, so I decided to try it. Though the user interface took some "getting used to", OpenOffice Calc, overall, has been great. I use it every day, for everything from production schedules to quote sheets. I wish I had switched sooner!- Industry: Information Technology & Services

A fine spreadsheet tool for most, but you may as well use LibreOffice Calc
Reviewed on 2023/06/12
Pros
Works fine for the most part, and does import all the usual web file formats for organised data
Cons
It doesn't open the latest MS Office .*x files, and it's much more out of date then the equivalent LibreOffice Calc

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

Same as Excel but free
Reviewed on 2021/05/03
Great, switched once and still using it. Nice functionality and compatibility.
Great, switched once and still using it. Nice functionality and compatibility.
Pros
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.
Cons
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.
