Overall, while it is powerful for document work, it can feel less user-friendly and less widely supported in today’s work environments. > > In terms of SECURITY, it provides a stable environment for handling important documents, making it suitable for professional and legal work. The VALUE FOR MONEY is good because it offers powerful office features at a lower cost compared to some major competitors. CUSTOMER SUPPORT is helpful but not always as fast or widely available as larger cloud-based platforms. The DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT features are strong, allowing users to create, edit, and organize complex files with precision. However, there can be some BUGS AND ISSUES, especially with compatibility or occasional performance glitches on newer systems. The FEATURES are solid for word processing and office tasks, though less modern than some alternatives. For TEAM COLLABORATION, it is somewhat limited compared to cloud-based tools, making real-time collaboration more difficult. Overall, it remains a reliable and cost-effective office suite for individual and professional document work. ----- ### "A Decent Word Processor" — 2.0/5 > **Joel** | *18 November 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: Word Perfect is a classic program and is rather simple to use > > **Cons**: It is not as robust as other word processing programs and lacks compatibility > > It was a fine word processor until other programs came out and were more effectivee. ----- ### "WordPerfect Office is a good choice for an Office suite at less cost than MS Office." — 5.0/5 > **John** | *14 July 2025* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: WordPerfect is a full featured word processing program that has been around for decades. It has excellent features for creating legal documents. It's Reveal Codes feature makes it much easier to find obscure code errors than doing so in MS Word. The Oxford Dictionary included with the suite is very helpful. It also includes hundreds of quality fonts. > > **Cons**: Unfortunately, Microsoft Office vastly outsells WordPerfect Office, which means that exchanging document files with others can be problematic. Conversions are good on letters and other simple documents, less so with complex formatted documents such as legal pleadings. > > I have used Word for about 30 years since the law firm I was then working for switched to Word from WordPerfect because so many of its clients were using Word. At the time, I preferred WordPerfect, but WordPerfect has stagnated over the years, whereas Word has continued to evolve. ----- ### "The disappearing word - WordPerfect." — 5.0/5 > **Dale** | *8 July 2025* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease of use. It was a beautiful, usable, working product. It looked good and worked smoothly. In fact, at the time, I though WordPerfect was better performing, looked better than Word. > > **Cons**: It was early in my computing career, so it is hard to remember. I honestly don't recall anything that didn't work well. I suppose the only thing is that it wasn't in the Microsoft Office Suite. > > I loved WordPerfect. I understood the symbols, the ability to take things offline to see the code and edit that way. It even showed the number of spaces between words or letters. I was sad to see it disappear. ----- ### "Give it a fair opportunity, you might be surprised." — 5.0/5 > **Nick** | *16 October 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how simple to use it is. It makes drafting documents an absolute breeze. > > **Cons**: It lacks some of the features that Microsoft word has to offer. > > Overall word perfect is an outstanding software. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/160719/wordperfect-office?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/160719/wordperfect-office) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
