  • Zoho Office Suite beta

    The Zoho Office Suite beta has strong potential, but it's not yet a final product, and its spreadsheets and presentations apps need more work before you can rely on them.

  • Google Spreadsheets

    The online Google Spreadsheets is free, easy to use, and handy for collaboration, but stick with Excel for complex spreadsheets.

  • Microsoft Office Standard 2007

    If you need to make sleeker-looking documents and presentations, Microsoft Office Standard 2007 is a worthy upgrade. But stick to your current software if you don't feel that it lacks anything.

  • Apple iWork '09

    Intuitive interface design and easy access to useful features make iWork the best office suite choice on the Mac. Though it lacks some of Microsoft Office's advanced options, iWork '09 is an emerging powerhouse in its own right.

  • Google Docs beta

    Google Docs is a fantastic free online application that offers some exciting features. However, by virtue of being an online application, users with a slow connection will experience lag, and Docs still doesn't contain enough functionality to be a replacement for today's mainstay office suites in most businesses.
