ONLYOFFICE

Onlyoffice offers a unique concept to users who wish to possess full control over their written correspondence within one secure cloud-based platform. Be it the basic word processing package, the email client, editing tools, or other pertinent features, this houses everything, literally under one roof. Being a newbie in the industry, onlyoffice has a lot to offer, so let’s take a look at some of their offerings:

• Run your independent virtual office in a private server, not needing to concern yourself with security, sharing, or privacy protocol any further
• Choose from an array of distinct facilities, including document management, CRM & projects (to name but a few)
• A huge variety of installation options to suit your needs, combining customisability & security, all in one
• Integration options with other apps, as well as developer modules for those who are tech-savvy. They also offer partnerships for those who are interested!

Considering that onlyoffice is still in its infancy stages (as aforesaid), much user testing still needs to be undertaken. Nevertheless, let’s see what others have encountered with their primary experience thus far:

• The application is somewhat slow to load. In this modern era when time is everything, it appears a little counterintuitive that a recently developed software dealing with basic text protocol should suffer from such lags
• Currently, there’s no option to save directly to other cloud-based platforms, such as Dropbox. One must save to onlyoffice’s direct server first, prior to then manually transferring to their opted choice.

Apart from these concerns, it seems that onlyoffice is still developing (and rightly so). It does offer a balanced mix of features, usability, data integrity, as well as versatility in its application.
