I have chosen the software as an alternative to more expensive Microsoft variant and free Open Office software. The installation went smoothly (Internet required!) Program has the typical WORD surface. About compatibility issues I would possibly again to submit an addendum later. In Open Office, this came to me often ... I've used Word 2000 ... so OO could not cope. PowerPoint creates in OO could PowerPoint 2010 again not read properly. Let's see how the SOFTMAKER software behaves. Definitely a very good price for the three programs included! Buy recommendation!
