ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors als Linux-Alternative zu Microsoft Word

Aktualisiert am

Unser Fazit

ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors is a solid replacement for Microsoft Word for most everyday users. It handles rich text, tables, images, styles, footnotes, and basic collaboration via cloud services. It is ideal for students, small businesses, and anyone who needs a free, offline word processor on Linux. Advanced Word‑only features such as complex mail merge, deep VBA scripting, or extensive add‑in support are not fully matched.
