 Who thought WordPerfect would make a comeback!? November 20, 2008
kattepusen (USA)
Easy to install and easy to use! I haven't used all its applications yet; however, it is easy to navigate and figure out. No problems so far - recommened!
Well put together product package November 6, 2008
Chris Wren (Chicago, Illinois)
One of the few alternatives to the Microsoft office package, Word Perfect has been around for so many years but lost on its overall marketplace. While Office 7 came out in all its complexity, Wordperfect has taken a different approach: simplicity and ease of use. The whole package is exceedingly well done, and while this review will be brief, I will focus on the highlights and pitfalls of the package.
The exceedingly simple installation is fantastic. Less than a gig of space is needed, 256 megs of ram, and even the most minimalist processor from this millenium will run this. For those of us multitasking in their work, that is huge. Wordperfect, one of the finest word processors, becomes even more powerful and adaptive. PDF conversions, 60 different type of file conversions , a great thesaurus and dictionary, plus the ability to redact on the spot (great for legal work) makes this a great word processor. The revamped Quattro Pro feels as beefed up as excel, but a lack of familiarity with its quirks make it a little bit more difficult. Thankfully is it compatible with excel. Mail is a nice new addition that once you set up suffices as an outlook replacement. But the 200 megs of online storage is a huge addition! And the price? Can't ask for much better!
Yet there are some negatives. Lightning, which is supposed to bring the Wordperfect suite to the web, feels archaic and an older model, thrown in at the end. Mail does not import your Gmail and I found it reliant on some outlook databases (which I do not use). The calendar didn't translate over as well! I didn't find Quattro too easy to use, despite it's relative simplicity.
Despite the negatives, this is a viable alternative to Office 2007 and can work alongside it. If you desire something easy to use, easy to run, and easily morphing to what your workplace desires, then don't look much further!
 The Best Continues to Get Better October 29, 2008
Steven K. Szmutko (EWING, NJ USA)
I have been a WordPerfect user for many years. Although I am comfortable with Microsoft Office applications, I find that WordPerfect Office products to be much more powerful and easy to use. I consider it to be the "gold standard." It is fully compatible with Microsoft applications, but is easier to use, with a far greater array of supporting features.
Office X4 enables the user to create high-level, professional-quality documents and presentations. There is complete and easy integration of older formats as well as countless other older products, enabling the user to easily refine existing documents without the loss of key formatting, as well as creating new documents.
Both the Amazon site and Corel's on product pages offer the standard descriptions, so I will focus on what I find to be most useful - based on my extensive use of the package.
WordPerfect X4: To me, the "Reveal Codes" feature is my favorite. I can create, format, revise and refine documents much more quickly and easily than in Microsoft Word. In addition, the ability to create, revise, edit and export PDFs to/from WPX4 is most efficient.
QuattroProX4: Although I do not use the spreadsheet program as much as the others, it is easy to use and the integration into other documents is quite seamless.
Presentations X4: I find it a better tool than PowerPoint to create presentations. The "Show on the Go" feature allows you to use all PCs, even those that do not have Presentations installed. Conversion of Power Point is easy and I have not experienced any loss of formatting.
The Utilities: The supporting utilities, including document templates and conversion features, enable me to convert documents quickly to and from other formats, either individually or in folder groups.
SUMMARY: I guess that I am a long-time fan, but for me the greatest value is in having a more powerful suite of programs that can help me create, develop, and easily use macros, templates, etc. and work with both the Corel programs and the MS Office applications.
I'll freely admit . . . October 16, 2008

. . . I'm one of those few persons who actually prefer WordPerfect to Microsoft Word. When I first entered the working world, I learned how to use the DOS based version of WordPerfect, and the software served me well through graduate school and a Master's Thesis. As recently as 8 years ago, I was still using it in an office setting where, honestly, it worked better with the particular system we were using. And I've consistently continued to use it in my fairly extensive personal writing at home. Why? Because, while I've found WordPerfect slightly less "user friendly" than Word, for the type of writing that I have done and continue to do, I've found that the program can do more.
This version is every bit as good and as previous versions I've used (and better than some). I've been very pleased. I was also pleased at the ease of compatibility I've found when working on documents created in other formats -- something WordPerfect has not always been great about.
While I'll admit that my primary reason for selecting this product was for the word processing, I want to say a brief word about the QuattroPro spreadsheet. While Excel is far and away the most widely used spreadsheet today, I (and many others) cut my teeth on Lotus 1-2-3. This version of QuattroPro allows the user to utilize not only its own format, but also 1-2-3 as well as Excel. For dealing with older documents (or for persons more familiar with earlier programs) this is a great feature.
I highly recommend this product.

WordPerfect Office 4X Standard
This is a fully functional Office package that rivals and in some cases surpasses MS Office. Each of the programs load more quickly then it's MS Office counterparts do on the same PC. It installs in less time then MS Office and you are asked less questions during the install.
It can open almost any file including PDF's but with the documents originally created in MS Office it makes slight format changes and in some cases changes the font style.
I have used other editions of Word Perfect nice the time that Novell owned it and I have always liked the functionality of each edition and this is no different in fact in some areas it surpassed my high expectations. I just with it was a little more interoperable with MS Office. It does work fairly well with Open Office that I have installed on my MAC but the formatting changes somewhat here too.
One of the nice features is the ability to preview a document without having to open it, it's a real time saver for me. The edition of a fully functional mail program is nice.
The graphics selection is great and inserting and resizing graphics has become easier.
It's great as a stand alone processor or in a network environment where only Word Perfect is used but unfortunately won't work that well in an environment dominated by MS Office. Still it's my preferred home processor by far. It's easy to use, fairly intuitive and you can turn out some really professional looking documentation with little effort.
