Microsoft Office is typically cited as the best word processing suite available on the market today. Yet, with the arrival of free substitutes like Kingsoft Office Suite Professional, Microsoft Office may be placed on the back burner in the near future.

Kingsoft Office Suites' word processing technology provides plenty of options for making and customizing documents with the Kingsoft Writer application.

The Kinsoft Spreadsheets feature is the equivalent of Microsoft excel and boasts nearly identical functions and features as the mainstream software. Finally, Kingsoft Presentation is similar to Microsoft Office's Powerpoint program. Like Powerpoint, it allows the user to customize slides to create an interactive slideshow.

Kingsoft Office Suite 2013 is also available in a professional mode which offers more features geared toward businesses.

One decisive feature offered by the suite is compatibility with Microsoft Office files. As Microsoft Office is currently the leading processing software, this is a vital addition. It can also read and open files in other popular formats. And, of course, Kingsoft Office files are compatible with the Microsoft Suites.

Kingsoft Office Suite Professional has a handy internal converter that has the capability to turn Writer, Spreadsheets, and Presentations files into PDF format instantly.

Like most word processor and word processing suites, the Kingsoft Suites come equipped with an advanced version of automatic spell checker. The service will highlight misspelled words and grammatical errors. It also has a basic built-in thesaurus for word choice support.

Kingsoft has been engineered to help users stay productive. That's why developers created an easy tab bar that makes switching between documents a snap. Every open document is displayed on this bar. This helps you keep track of work that needs to be completed.

Unlike other word processing suites, Kingsoft Office Suite Professional takes up much less space. At only 70MB it is not only rapid to download, but it leaves space on your hard drive for other important programs.

With the professional suite, users will even be able to ensure the safety of their documents by utilizing Kingsoft's document encryption. By using a special, encrypted password, users can safeguard the rights to their work.

All in all, for a free software, Kingsoft Office Suite is an incredible tool, particularly for free software.

The extended capabilities of Kingsoft Office Suite Professional rivals even the best office suites around, including Microsoft Office.

With plenty of features and an intuitive, attractive interface, Kingsoft has created a top-notch option to stand up to Microsoft Office.
