Last updated: 25 March 2007

N.B. This page compares NeoOffice 2.1 (a legacy version of NeoOffice) to OpenOffice.org 2.1 and Microsoft Office 2004. For a comparison between the current versions of NeoOffice, OpenOffice.org/X11, and Microsoft Office, see NeoOffice Feature Comparison.

The advantages of NeoOffice over other office suites, particularly Microsoft's, are legion. Most importantly, NeoOffice is free and open source software relieving you of costly licensing fees.

There is a strong community support forum that is also frequented by the developers at http://trinity.neooffice.org/

NeoOffice vs. Microsoft Office

Apart from these benefits, NeoOffice 2.1 has features that outshine Microsoft Office:

Feature	NeoOffice	MS Office 2004 for Mac
General:
Price (standard edition)	$0.00	$399.95
Runs on Intel-based Macs	Natively	Using Rosetta
Document contents searchable by Spotlight
Type ahead word-completion (optional), similar to features found in mobile phones
A logical, safe and suite-wide system for templates, so these are never accidentally updated
Clean HTML code export (compliant with international web standards)
Support for international standard ISO 26300 OpenDocument file formats
Support for Microsoft Office 2007 (OpenXML) file formats	*	*
Support for voice-dictation and similar software		(?)
Unified User Interface, reducing learning time and costs
Localized user interface and help files (number of languages)	58**	7**
International spelling checkers	88***	12***
Support for text entry in non-Roman scripts including South Asian, East Asian, right-to-left and complex text layout scripts		Some [1]
Supported scripts or languages:
Arabic
Armenian
Cyrillic
Cherokee
Chinese (Simplified)
Chinese (Traditional)
Devanagari & Gujarati (Indic languages)
Greek
Hebrew
Inuktitut
Japanese
Korean
Roman (Western and Eastern European languages)
Roman (Hawaiian, Northern Sami)
Roman (Vietnamese)
Thai
Other	Likely****	Unknown
Writer (word processor):
A logical style system that does not invent styles based on your layout choices
Functional bullet/list numbering
The ability to import WordPerfect documents (thanks to the libwpd project)
The ability to import Microsoft Works word processing documents (thanks to the libwps and ooo-build projects)	*****
Calc (spreadsheet):
More conditional layout options for cells
Style-enabled layout system for text and cells
Support for linear programming extensions for spreadsheets (thanks to the ooo-build project)
Support for Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macros (thanks to the ooo-build project)	*****
Impress (presentation):
The ability to export to Flash animation
Superior (3D) font art possibilities.
Notes:
* NeoOffice 2.1 includes support for Word 2007 (`.docx`) files using code from the odf-converter project; support for Excel 2007 and PowerPoint 2007 files is planned [2]. Microsoft has announced it will ship converters for Office 2004 sometime in 2007 [3] and that Office 2008 will fully support the new formats.
** NeoOffice 2.1 only ships with a UI for English; UIs for the other 57 languages are freely available in language packs. Office 2004 is available in English (all versions of Office 2004), and in French, German, Italian, Japanese, Spanish and Swedish (for some versions of Office 2004; must be ordered separately) [4].
* An ever-growing number of writing (proofing) tools for many languages are available from the OpenOffice.org project [5] using the Dictionary wizard (in the File menu, choose Wizards**, then "Install new dictionaries..."). Microsoft Office 2004 ships with proofing tools for English, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, German, Danish, Swedish, Portuguese, Finnish, and Dutch [6].
**** Because OpenOffice.org includes support for languages and scripts which do not have keyboard layouts in Mac OS X, and because Mac OS X includes system-level Unicode support for many of these languages even though Apple does not ship fonts or keyboards, it is very likely that NeoOffice will support text entry (and perhaps sorting) in the language/script if one installs third-party Unicode fonts and keyboard layouts. See Tom Gewecke's Your Multilingual Mac for more resources. For instance, there is a report that NeoOffice handles Khmer very well, and there has even been a report of using NeoOffice with characters in Unicode Planes 1 and 2.
***** Experimental support; VBA : all macros may not work perfectly; Microsoft Works documents : not all versions of the format are supported, and some formatting may be lost.

NeoOffice vs. OpenOffice.org for Macintosh (X11)

NeoOffice is far more integrated with OS X than the Mac releases of OpenOffice.org. Rather than relying on X11, NeoOffice uses Java and Cocoa to bridge the gap between the OpenOffice.org interface code and Apple's OS X.

Feature	NeoOffice	OpenOffice.org for Mac (X11)
Uses your normal Mac fonts (no conversion required)
Smooth font display (Quartz anti-aliasing)
Allows international keyboards and input methods		Partial
Switches keyboards and input methods along with your Mac
Optimized PDF generation
Native Aqua menus
Native Aqua open & save dialogues
Aqua buttons, checkboxes, and scrollbars
Aqua-style icon set
Native Mac OS X printing
Native (styled) copy and paste support
Drag-and-drop between other applications
Normal Mac keyboard shortcuts (command key)		*
Mouse wheel scrolling
Integrated with Finder and major mail clients		Partial**
Spotlight support		***
Usable with accessibility tools such as iListen, Proloquo, ViaVoice, and others
Reads and writes files on AFP and SMB volumes and iDisks		Partial*****
Support for Microsoft Office 2007 (OpenXML) file formats
Support for linear programming extensions for spreadsheets
Support for Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macros
Support for Microsoft Works word processing documents
OpenOffice.org codebase (version)	2.1	2.1****
Runs on Mac OS X 10.3.x and 10.4.x
Runs on Intel-based Macs	Natively	Natively****
Notes:
* Available only with certain settings in Apple X11, and the control key may not work as expected.
** Finder integration provided by a small AppleScript wrapper; more extensive Finder integration is available using the separate Start OpenOffice.org application.
*** NeoOffice includes the NeoLight Spotlight Importer; users of OpenOffice.org must build and install the importer themselves.
**** The official Mac OS X version of OpenOffice.org is available as separate binary downloads for several languages; builds of OpenOffice.org 2.1 are available in English and 10 other languages for PowerPC, and English and 5 other languages for Intel-based Macs, and run on Mac OS X 10.3.x and higher. To see which version is available for your language and platform, check here. Builds for other languages may or may not be available.
***** OpenOffice.org is missing support for iDisk and webdav volumes and also is missing support for using Base .odb files on any remote volume.

Still To Do

In all fairness, NeoOffice is not perfect. No software is. Along with relatively large RAM requirements (minimum 384 MB, 512 MB or more recommended), there is always room for improvement. NeoOffice can (and will) get better. Take a look at the following comparison:

Feature	NeoOffice	MS Office 2004 for Mac	OpenOffice.org for Mac (X11)
Bitmap printing at >300 dpi
Media (plugin) support
Non-Mac keyboard shortcuts	Some	Some	Some
Table drawing options	Good	Very good	Good
Aqua look-and-feel	Good	Full	None

Supported File Formats

NeoOffice can read and write a large variety of file formats, both current and legacy. Current and recent Microsoft Office file formats are just some of the import and export possibilities; for a more complete listing, see the NeoOffice File Formats matrix.
