Deploying OpenOffice

a low or no cost office suite will surely save on licensing costs. The next important question is whether it will actually reduce overall office productivity costs. Based on customer data, this white paper shows the significant cost savings of deploying StarOffice and OpenOffice.org instead of Microsoft Office.

The costs covered are not just licensing costs but also include migration, training and system administration costs among others. The white paper provides a framework for any customer so they can perform their own StarOffice or OpenOffice.org cost-benefit analysis. StarOffice not only delivers costs savings but also provides compatibility with Microsoft Office, runs on Windows, Mac, Solaris and Linux and supports many industry standards like OpenDocument Format (ODF), PDF, HTML and FLASH.
