Open Office is a suite of document processors for desktop computers. It is considered as the top competitor to Microsoft Office, the leading brand in terms of working with documents, spreadsheets and slideshow presentations on desktop computers. This is why it would be extremely convenient to have an Open Office for BlackBerry app. However, such an app does not exist, but there is no need to worry. There are several alternatives out there that provide similar functions and capabilities. Here are some of them.

eOffice

This app is a suite of applications that help you create, view and edit Microsoft documents like Word files, PowerPoint presentations and Excel spreadsheets. Accessing and managing e-mail attachments is also possible in this app, making it a serious out-of-office productivity tool. File sharing and data integrity are some of the other features and capabilities that can be found in this suite of applications.
