Tired of paying a monthly bill to use Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF? Download an all-in-one office suite that's compatible with Microsoft Office programs for free instead!
WPS Office is your money-saving alternative for creating documents, spreadsheets, presentations and PDFs. This office software is available on every platform, including Windows, Mac, Android, iOS and Linux. Plus, everything is saved in WPS Cloud, so you can access and edit your work anytime, anywhere.
When you download WPS Office, you'll notice it has very similar apps to Microsoft. 'Writer' is the equivalent to Word, 'Spreadsheet' is a version of Excel, 'Presentation' is practically PowerPoint's copycat and 'PDF' is Adobe PDF without the price tag.
Rest assured, you can share your files with others who don't have WPS Office via mobile or computer. WPS files can be converted into 40+ file formats and languages.
If, however, you want additional features, subscribe for a paid WPS subscription and earn cash back on your purchase. You can read about the differences between WPS Standard and WPS Pro below.

Applications and Services
WPS Writer is a free word processor that's compatible with not just Microsoft Word, but LibreOffice and Google Docs, too. You can create office documents such as reports, letters, resumes, articles and essays -- then convert them into multiple file formats.
WPS Spreadsheet lets you do all the same things that Excel does. You can sort data, plot graphs, analyze finances and more. Like the Writer app, you'll be able to export your spreadsheets as file formats that are more common, including .xls and .csv.
WPS Presentation is a slideshow tool you may find yourself using a lot in your professional and personal life. You can gussy up text, images and videos with beautifully designed templates. Plus, feel free to save them as PDF files.
Speaking of, WPS PDF comes with an array of productivity tools and solutions. PDF Reader Pro, for instance, is essential to view and annotate PDFs. It enables you to edit, fill out and sign PDF forms.
Once you're set up with PDF editor, you should also download PDF Converter Pro. This converts your PDFs to Word Docs seamlessly. Paragraph layouts, fonts, bullets and tables remain the same after the switch -- so you don't have to deal with the hassle of making adjustments.
If you have an Apple device, be sure to install WPS Office for Mac or WPS Office for iOS. PC users, on the other hand, would need WPS Office for Windows.
Plans
As we've mentioned, this amazing alternative to MS Office is free. But there are limits to the WPS Standard plan.
For only $35.99 per year, you can enjoy 20 GB of Cloud storage, cloud collaboration, file format conversion and PDF editing with WPS Pro. You'll also be free of pesky advertisements. One Pro account can be used across up to nine devices. But if you don't want to commit to a year, there's a six-month plan available for $23.99.
WPS Business is another paid option. It offers security management solutions and cloud services you wouldn't get with a personal plan. Each member of staff gets 100 GB of Cloud storage, not to mention IP and device sign-in restrictions for safety reasons. For a business setup, WPS Office is asking for $4.99 per user per month or $59.99 per user per year. You can try it for 15 days for free.
