CodeWeavers Announces CrossOver Office 1.1 (OpenForBusiness)

[Posted June 11, 2002 by ris]

Open for Business reviews CodeWeavers' CrossOver Office. "On the new release, CodeWeavers CEO Jeremy White commented "With Outlook and Internet Explorer support, we feel that we have rounded out the most important features of the Microsoft Office Suite, and have made it simple and painless for an organization to adopt the Linux desktop." Based on our recent experience in OfB Labs, White very well could be correct."

I bought the first version and I must admit, it was not an intuitive install. and it took some finagling with msoffice 2000.
But the handholding and following up was terrific! Immediate. Until it worked. So it was worth the money after all.
If MSOutlook works, then I wont need Lotus Notes anymore!
