Similar Products

Clearly there are the two big ones, Microsoft Office for Windows and Apple Works or iWork (as they're calling themselves now) for Apple. Those programs are great which is why Open Office is so similar to those programs. Those programs let the general public create professional papers and presentations.


Here are the websites for the respective pay programs:

The official website for Microsoft Office. The site provides product information, pricing, tutorials and online help communities. The Microsoft Office software must be purchased, but there is a 60-day free trial of the software.
http://office.microsoft.com/

The other giant in the comptuer world has a version of office software. iWorks, as it is called now to match their other products, offers the document, spreadsheet, and presentation software. iWorks software does cost, but Mac offers a 30-day free trial.
http://www.apple.com/iwork/

This site is for IBM's Lotus software. The site gives information about products, pricing (including discounts on multi-year agreements), case studies and blogs about their software.

The Think Free site is a twist on the two big office software packages. It is a site an individual, library or business can download and use as a server. It enables a library for example, to download Microsoft Office on one computer and users on other computers will be able to download, edit, create, and save documents. There is a free version and a paid version. There is also seperate software for desktops, netbooks and mobile devices.
