Our verdict

Still maintained, with occasional 4.1.x updates, and it runs on very old PCs with little memory. Development is much slower than LibreOffice, which shares its roots, so Microsoft Office compatibility and new features lag behind. Choose it if you already rely on it; new users are usually better served by LibreOffice or ONLYOFFICE.
