LibreOffice vs OpenOffice

LibreOffice is the successor to OpenOffice.org, commonly known as OpenOffice, which had its last major update in 2014. OpenOffice is no longer producing releases and has unfixed security issues over 18 months old – so all users are recommended to upgrade.

LibreOffice adds many extra features and improved Microsoft Office/365 compatibility, and has regular releases with security updates. Learn more about the history of OpenOffice and LibreOffice here, and check out this comparison:
