Good All-In-One Package
Pros: Much More Powerful than MS Office!
Cons: It's not MS Office!
Review: A very good "out of the box" suite for small businesses (that's 1-5 people using a computer). Has a very simple interface with some straight forward templates. If you want to invest some time, you could set-up your own standard set to run your business. If you want the cheapest and most powerful set of tools, get this suite. If you want "standard" and "most widely used", get MS Office and pay the extra fee for being with the in crowd.
