openHudson added Apache OpenOffice as alternative to SolidWriting- SV1987 reviewed Apache OpenOffice
One of the smallest office programs. It consumes only 328Mb. For this reason alone I will install it on my system SSD rather than Libre Office or Only Office. I can format a sheet in it or make a table. I need very few functions and will keep it for the sake of my drive space economy.

I liek it. Free and more useful than Microsoft Office IMO. Also, it's Open Source so it's better by default.
If you're searching a Suite, I advise you to use LibreOffice instead. And people who still using OpenOffice : you should really consider using LibreOffice. There is a well know bug (https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126869) on Apache OpenOffice since 2016, it still unresolved (and I wonder if it will be one day), and it can corrompt your files and make them useless.
Here is a video of what can happen because of that bug : https://twitter.com/i/status/1136527439604133890 Knowing that now, continue using it or download it at your own risk.

Not a bad alternative to Microsoft office. Have been using this for about 3 years now
Does not have any real update since 2014. Use LibreOffice instead.
Don't use this garbage! Apache OpenOffice is dead. There hasn't been any serious updates to the project in years. The pseudo-developers of this software should simply close the site and redirect people to
LibreOffice or 
ONLYOFFICE websites. Apache OpenOffice used to be good though, many years ago.
Best light office for pc, and they fix all bugs in May 2022, version
