Apache OpenOffice Calc

We used open office to analyze general ledger files. Find the outage between the balance for every day. The files were huge and would have around 100K records and hence open office was our go to software. The software helped with formula, vlookup, pivot and other mathematical formulas that were required for making our life easy. Our boss was happy because the software is free of cost and didn't need approval from higher level for reimbursement.

My company doesn't have the signature for a paid Office Software, because of this I work with this platform opensource. Is good to know that the Apache OpenOffice Calc is much better that the others available to download, the reason behind it is the multiples formulas, charts, dinamic table and graphics available to use. I think that only problem to reported is when you need use the macro, I think that it dont work much better like the Microsoft Excel.

• Significant return with saving of signatures
• All team work with the same app
• Improvement process and get the routine workflow

Microsoft 365

I was looking for a lightweight software for

making calculations and creating lists, and Apache OpenOffice Calc turned out to be the best choice. Not only it requires less storage space, but it has the same commands I could find in Microsoft Excel. In addition, I can export a spreadsheet as a .pdf file, which is great for me, since I use this software mostly for creating and modifying lists. Finally, Apache OpenOffice Calc allows me to open various file types, including .xls. The only defect is the fact that I can export only one spreadsheet as a .pdf file, in case my document consists of two or more spreadsheets.

• The software is free to download and use, but if I invested anything, I think it would be worth its price, and I don't plan to change it anytime soon.
