What's Hot

Intuitive menus and toolbars, it's free

What's Not

Special effects are lost when saved as a Word .doc, lesser features than Word

The Final Word

IBM says that the full version 1.0 of IBM Lotus Symphony will be available in the first quarter of 2008, and it will still be free of charge. That's a good thing, as the zero price point is Lotus Symphony's best calling card. It's an efficient program with a handsome interface but with feature enhancements still to be made. While powerful, it certainly does not rival Office's robust capabilities -- yet.
