Good product as office suite option

4.0 10 months ago

Comments: My overall experience has actually been quite good, there have been a few updates that were a little buggy, but WPS has generally cleaned that up fairly quickly.

Pros:

I use the product as an alternative to MS Office, the standard Office Tools (documents, spreadsheets, presentations) all work well and I find the UI less cumbersome than the newer versions of MS Office. I also use the PDF editing tool and find it quite handy.

Cons:

Although WPS comes with its own cloud storage service, and from what I can tell it works fine (limited experience) their integration with the bigger players in this space (Dropbox, OneDrive, etc) could be better.

WPS Office: A good alternative to Microsoft Office

3.0 10 months ago

Comments: I tried using WPS Office to see if it fits my needs well. Also, i tried using it to see if users who cannot afford to have MS Office can benefit from this. I found out that almost all features of MS Office can be found in WPS Office. However, the major thing i noticed is when it is being used with screen readers, the reader cannot read what is being written on an opened file. That is something that I think can be improved in future releases of updates.

Pros:

Pros of WPS Office are as follows: -Comes with a complete tool for almost any kind of document or data you need to work on -Files can easily be exported to other file types -It's easy to import files with different file types

Cons:

The cons of WPS Office are as follows: -Not so popular, unlike MS Office -Sometimes, sharing and/or sending files to other people can be challenging -It is not friendly to persons with visual impairment who are using screen readers

WPS Office Is My Most Used Software

5.0 3 months ago

Comments: I have used WPS Office almost every day for several years, and it has worked great for me. I do so much using the Presentation format.

Pros:

The price is cheaper but the program is just as effective as Microsoft office.

Cons:

I had to pay to edit PDF files. That is about the only reason I had to get WPS Pro.

Why WPS Is important

5.0 7 months ago

Comments: WPS office is user-friendly and it's an office in your pocket because you can access and do anything from anywhere.

Pros:

I can view different types of files and convert them from one file to another. It's an easy app to easy app to use. After every 24 hours, the app deletes PDF data, which is useful for privacy. You can do file transfer and access files from the recycle bin in case you delete them by mistake. One more important thing is that it can help you scan documents and convert them to PDFs which it could not do before.

Cons:

It limits some other tools and for you to access them you must pay a fee.

PROS OF WPS

4.0 9 months ago

Comments: WPS office is a nice and very useful app, which is affordable for a lot of people. I honestly recommend

Pros:

WPS office gives the option to open various documents all at once, therefore saving the time and stress of open and closing apps every time you want to look at different documents. It also leaves a green check on your last previously viewed document, saving you the stress of trying to look for your last opened document. Most of the essential features for your basic everyday life usage is free compared to some other similar apps

Cons:

Trying to find a saved document on WPS office might be difficult to find for first time users.

WPS Office if you don't have... Office

4.0 6 months ago

Comments: I use WPS Office on my mobile phone and computer to open and modify my documents. A valid alternative to Office, that runs well: i recommend it above all on mobile phones.

Pros:

On mobile phone it allows me to see and modify documents in a quick way and even the screen is small I can use the program without any problem. On computer you can open a modify word and excel files even if you don't have office, so it is really handy. The program runs smoothly.

Cons:

if you disinstall it, it may happens that icons become blank instead; i found it on some computers as default program for documents, users accidentaly installed it, so I think it tries to install itself on your system when you install other programs

How efficient does WPS Office to us?

Pros:

I like the most in this software is you can use it on your android/ios phone anywhere, anytime. Its less hassle for me because i don't need to carry my laptop everyday. They make sure that you can easily used their specs ;in editing, lay-outing material for presentation and many more. They make it simple to use.

Cons:

The least I like about this is their security features on your documents so it won't leak any sensitive information and unauthorized access to documents.

An essential tool for professional and personal life

5.0 last year

Comments: WPS Office has become my go-to office suite. I highly recommend WPS Office to anyone in need of a reliable and feature-rich office software solution.

Pros:

I like the WPS Office comprehensive suite of office applications that have greatly improved my productivity and efficiency. One of the standout features of WPS Office is its compatibility with Microsoft Office formats. I can seamlessly open, edit, and save documents in formats such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. I particularly appreciate the advanced features offered by WPS Office. The Writer application provides a wide range of formatting options, templates, and styles for easy creation of professional-looking documents. The Spreadsheets application offers powerful data analysis tools and functions to manipulate and visualize data effectively. The Presentation application provides dynamic and visually appealing slideshows.

Cons:

Nothing to complain about so far, I'm making full use of the tool on daily basis
