StarOffice Enterprise Tools flawed but helpful
January 31, 2006 — 7:01pm ET
StarOffice isn't necessarily an unworthy alternative to Microsoft Office, but don't expect much compatibility beyond the basic features. Tools like the Professional Analysis Wizard and Macro Migration Wizard are handy but not perfect, and you still need a copy of Microsoft Office because of some API issue, a reviewer notes. [Ed. note: How does StarOffice compare to OpenOffice and Corel's WordPerfect out in the field? Email me.]
