To date, to work on the computer you need an Office suite that includes the program for writing, the one for calculating and creating data tables and the one for creating presentations.Notoriously, to do these three activities, the leading programs are: Word, Excel and Powerpoint which are part of the Microsoft Office suite.
The free alternatives for Microsoft Office there is no shortage and you can work using alternative programs such as OpenOffice, the most updated and powerful LibreOffice or you can work online, with your computer connected to the internet, via Google Docs or other online Office suites.
Another Microsoft Office alternative to download for free and try è WPS Office, available for PC, smartphone and tablet
WPS Office you can download it for free today per PC Windows, Linux, iPhone e Android as a free suite with no time or functionality limitations.
It includes Writer as an alternative to Word for creating and editing documents, Presentation as an alternative to Powerpoint e Spreadsheet alternative to Excel to create data tables and make calculations.
With these three programs you can open create and edit Microsoft Office files (doc, docx, xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx).
The main reason why you may prefer WPS Office over the others is its lightness and the fact that it works well even on older computers and low-powered and resource-limited netbooks.
The free installer download is just 68MB (one-tenth that of Microsoft Office).
The program is only in English so, if it doesn't bother you, you must still disable the automatic correction in the options (Spelling) and use another program to make spelling corrections.
The graphical interface of the Writer and of the other WPS Office programs it can be customized, with the choice between the classic one of Office 2003, with the traditional menu, or with a modern menu.
Paragraphs can be adjusted by moving them with the mouse and dragging them.
All major tools are available, you can save each document in the standard format of Word, Excel or Powerpoint and you can too create a PDF file.
Among the other special features of WPS Office we find the management of tabbed documents as web browsers do, the password protection of private documents, the night mode to work at night without straining the eyes, effects to insert 3D writings (with the Clipart), ready-made templates for documents.
Finally, do not forget the maximum level of file compatibility with Microsoft Office 2007/20013/2016.

Not only because it is a free program but above all because it is very light and functional, I would recommend WPS Office for all those who do not want to pay for Microsoft Office and are dissatisfied with the performance of LibreOffice or OpenOffice.
