OpenOffice Suite is an open-source alternative to Microsoft Office that includes applications like Writer, Calc, Impress, and Base that are comparable to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access respectively. OpenOffice is free to download and use, supports older hardware better than current Microsoft Office, and can read and write Microsoft file formats. While OpenOffice applications have improved, Microsoft Office still has more advanced and polished features in some areas like grammar checking and support for macros.
