I avoid spending time on document conversion from Linux to Windows compatible files. I continue using the Windows operating system to cater to my colleagues’ convenience and to save time.
Fityk free software software#
Many of my co-workers stick with windows software applications as they find Linux challenging to learn. That includes me, although I still keep my windows laptop for compatibility reasons. But given the subscription-based offering of Microsoft in its line of products as any profit-oriented company would do, many windows users have gradually shifted their eyes towards open-source alternatives. Generally, computer users avoid using free spreadsheet software in Linux because they lack features found in purchased products that they are familiar with while using windows applications. Not just a cheap software application but a free one at that.Ī reader in that forum who happened to be a professor himself recommended Gnumeric. He was in a quandary because his professor uses MS Excel’s Data Analysis add-in to solve statistical problems. In that forum, a student lamented that he can’t afford to buy MS Excel. I landed on a forum talking about alternatives for MS Excel’s data analysis add-in. My purpose was to gather the best software applications for my exclusive collection of Linux office productivity tools. I encountered Gnumeric while looking for an open-source statistical software that works like the Data Analysis add-in of MS Excel. Gnumeric thrived through the years, unlike other free software applications developed for Linux that die a natural death when there are no more volunteers or passionate Linux users who work on it.
The spreadsheet software still works as it used to even up to this time. I discovered Gnumeric in 2014 while searching for statistical software application that will work in my Ubuntu Linux distribution, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, which I enjoyed using for almost two years.
