[Gllug] Office Alternatives

[Andy Millar]

SPLA?

Fasthosts used to offer Office 2007 via SPLA for about £15/month.

That's a lot more manageable than the £300 one off :-)

Or zoho (ducks even lower). Seriously, it's a conversation I've had
repeated through 10 years and 3 SME (<100 people each) and
never seriously resolved. I've always been stuck between users wanting
the MS toys and management not wanting to spend the money
for those toys.

I solved it 5 years ago by using citrix, but MS changed the licensing
model, and when I moved jobs, I made sure I wouldn't
be even slightly responsible for MS product licensing or maintenance.

None of the above helps you much, though. I'll get my coat.
