WPS Office runs on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS and the web, making it one of the few office suites with an official Linux client.
WPS Office is a practical pick for individuals and small teams who want a capable, Microsoft Office-compatible suite at no cost, with an affordable flat-rate upgrade. Heavy AI users should note the daily usage limits, and the free tier’s ads will put off some users.

Best for
- Individuals and small teams wanting a free Microsoft Office-compatible suite
- Users who work across many devices
- including Linux
Not ideal for
