## Reviews

### "Why WPS Is important" — 5.0/5

> **Oreneile** | *10 May 2024* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **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.
> 
> WPS office is user-friendly and it's an office in your pocket because you can access and do anything from anywhere.

### "More money deducted than what it stated in the ad" — 1.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *28 November 2024* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing. Terrible experience. I regret using the service as now I have lost school transport money for my kids. I m stressed and depressed
> 
> Please refund some of the money they deducted. I wanted they to deduct R38 and not R1499

### "WSP Office Best App ever for Documents" — 5.0/5

> **Yenziwe** | *06 June 2024* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Best thing about WSP Office is that you can open all documents in one app. For example you can open a PDF document , words document and spreadsheet. You can also import and export data files in WSP Office. Search and filter are the best
> 
> **Cons**: The cloud storage is limited and the free version contains ads. Sometimes apps crash.
> 
> 5 out of 5. you do everything in one app , you don't need to have many apps. You can edit your document easily, even the PDF document.

### "Best Alternate For Microsoft Office" — 5.0/5

> **Ravindra** | *21 December 2024* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The best thing i like is its user interface and affordability. When it comes to editing features, it surpasses its competitors. I seamlessly open and edit files in it.
> 
> **Cons**: There are limited free features available in it, but its more than enough for a person like me.
> 
> My overall experience is great. I like everything in it. I have nothing to complain in it.

### "WPS Office review on 2025 by me." — 5.0/5

> **Fred** | *14 November 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's almost the same as the somewhat "traditional" office software, I know that Google also has its own office tools and a lot more companies also have their own, but WPS is a great option, it does not require many resources to run.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes ads can be annoying, I just want the free version, it already offers a lot and in my case it's more than enough, 1gb of cloud storage it's a good decent amount.
> 
> The transition from Libre Office or the one from Microsoft was smooth and unnoticeable at first. I have not used any office product from Microsoft, i think that Edge has a way to use Word Excel, power Point , will check it out.
