Corel WordPerfect Office 2020 Standard | Word Processor, Spreadsheets, Presentations | Newsletters, Labels, Envelopes, Reports, Fillable PDF Forms, eBooks [PC Disc] [Old Version]

My husband has an older computer without a good word processor or other office tools. The Corel Word Perfect was easy to download. There is a CD and a web site. The disc did not work but the website had easy steps for downloading. There are other office applications with this too such as a slide power point and a spreadsheet application. I found the WP application easy to use. It had all the fonts I would expect although I did not find Helvetica but Times New Roman was there, and that is the font he tends to use. You can easily add tables into documents. Formatting was easy too. The spelling was fine but not the grammar section. MS word is better. All the tools are user friendly. Footnotes and endnotes were simple to insert also. I would state that with the exception of the grammar tool this is a very good office suite.

Ive used WordPerfect since it was a DOS software. It always meets and exceeds expectations. The rest of the package contains solid tools that are as easy, if not easier, to use. Quattro Pro is a solid rival to Excel and WordPerfect Lightning has become my newest favorite tool. Dont let anyone try to tell you that Office is better. WordPerfect provides the tools you need to be in control of your work, not the other way around. The entire suite is easy to use, flexible and hearty enough for any project you might want to throw at it.

What I need is word processor software, and what I dont want to do is to pay a monthly/yearly subscription for it, hence why I went with Wordperfect. It doesnt have all the features that MS Word does, and it is an adjustment format-wise to get used to everything, but it does every bit as well for word processing as MS Word and will save a lot of money over the span of several years. The only thing I really dont like about it is that it doesnt work with Grammarly, which I like to use when writing. Overall though, for the price, I think it is excellent software if you need a solid word processing.

Ive used both Word Perfect and Word. Both have their selling points, but I much prefer Word Perfect . . . especially the reveal codes option.

I would probably love the product but the printed label with the activation code has 1 digit on it that can NOT be read. Would love to find a way to get this corrected.

I got this suite of software mainly for word processing. As such, I can give the WordPerfect word processor top marks. Ive been using it for about a month and everything that my old wp (MS Word) did, this does also, and does equally well. Some items are located in different spots in the drop downs and Im sure theres extra features in both that I probably havent tapped into, but for my needs, they both work equally well. As for spreadsheets, I have always been a fan of MS Excel, and i have several on-going sheets that Ive been updating for years. Opening Quatro, it appears very similar, and i set up some basic formukas and everything appears good. My only problem came when opening a spreadsheet that I originally devised many years ago. Ive been updating and altering it for years... its been through multiple operating systems (going all the way back the Vista) and multiple upgrades of Excel... it still serves me well. When I originally tried opening it with Quatro, it stumbled. It kept trying to open then would shut down. When I finally got it to stay open, I had to resave it in a different format and then it would start opening properly. This may be a result of the age or complexity of this specific spreadsheet, but i expect it may just be settings that its picked up from being translated and retransmitted over the years. After some difficulties, it now works properly on Quatro. ( I should also note that starting a new spreadsheet with Quatto has worked flawlessly.) As for presentation software, I no longer have much of a need, but i did open Presentations and played with it to get a feel for how it works. It seems comparable and very similar to PowerPoint. This suite slso comes with Corels Aftershot - a photo editing package that allows fairly detailed basic editing and correction, cropping, color scales, saturation contrast, etc. It does a nice job and is straightforward and easy to use. (For more fancy photo editing, they offer a pro version for an additional fee. All in all, this is a quality suite of user friendly office type products. Recommended.

This suite cant be beat for word processing and formatting. Set up is quick and easy and it is straightforward to use. I am using it in my office where the emphasis is in document preparation and revision. This functions almost like a desktop publisher. However we do not do much group editing, an area where Word is better. Quatro pro, their spreadsheet program is on a par with Excel. Presentations works but it is not as impressive as Powerpoint. I tend to move between word, wordperfect and libre. For my purposes which emphasizes word processing, this program has the edge.

Works well with older versions of Wordperfect

Great! A very friendly user interface! Does everything I need around the office! Just... Perfect!

This software is an excellent set of programs. They are a great replacement for the MS programs. They work pretty much the same. You can do a whole lot more with WordPerfect than you can with the free options out there. Its very much worth the money.
