    ONLYOFFICE is less functional than Libre Office, but it is open source and has the following advantage I find useful: It opens all Microsoft Office .doc and .docx files with better fidelity than Libre Office does. Especially those with embedded vector graphics, which Libre sometimes screws up. The functionality is more like Google docs or something (e.g. no plugins, etc.). But it's good to have around.

    Onlyoffice is realy promising and amazing piece of software. However, I find it to work really bad in (poor) machines with less RAM (4gb or less). Optimization is way worse than what a software with maturity as LibreOffice can get. Also, like what other people said here, LibreOffice have more features at all, it's a more mature and reliable project.

    I like ONLY Office for simplicity and compatibility with Microsoft Document but if you need more functionnality Libre Office is a better choice.

    NOT free! Steals all your data/privacy, and sells it to everyone they can! Then uses it to train AI to plagiarize you! Also, Microsoft is literally a multi-convicted felon! You got to have ZERO self-respect to be used by this thing!

    Subscription service, does who-knows-what with your data, especially now that they're trying to put Copilot into EVERYTHING. Compare to LibreOffice which, even if you buy the desktop app through the Microsoft Store, is a one-time purchase, and your words and data stay on your own computer.

    WPS has the following drawbacks: 1) The 'free' version doesn't let you print freely (ie without a watermark, if at all), 2) Unlike Libre Office, it doesn't integrate with many popular plugins, e.g. Zotero or Mendeley. 3) It's not open source and therefore, in contrast to what another comment here claims, you don't know what the code is doing, and you don't know if it's spying on you or not.

    Worst point about WPS is that it 2019 version has a forced Chinese regional standards (decimal and thousand separator). WPS 2016 used to respect regional standards in latter versions, so as 2019 in very early versions. But since few years separators are now hardcoded.

    OpenOffice seems to be end-of-life. It doesn't receive as many code contributions as LibreOffice and has fewer features. LibreOffice is a successor to this project and is probably better for most users.

    Oracle totally squandered this project after they bought Sun. By the time they handed it off to Apache it was too little, too late, and most of the active work had moved over to LibreOffice. Apache's basically kept it on life support for the last decade.
