Looking for an alternative to Microsoft Office for the Linux.

I’ve already tried:

  • LibreOffice (It doesn’t have the same experience as Microsoft’s apps.)
  • OnlyOffice Desktop Editors (I like it)

What else would you recommend?

    Not quite. OnlyOffice has an offline/local suite too. When most people talk about OnlyOffice, they are usually referring to the local suite.

    OnlyOffice has better compatibility with MS Office file formats (and a similar UI), so some people prefer it over LO.

    The downside is that because the UI is written in HTML5, it’s slow and sometimes clunky compared to LO, which is (mostly) a native app. This is especially visible with large spreadsheets - OO takes a long time to render them, whereas in LO they open in a reasonable time.
