LibreOffice comes with a huge benefit - I do not have to see the Oracle logo
on the splash screen. That alone was enough to make me switch.
Other than that, I reckon they are mostly on par with each other for the

with more templates or makes the process easier. I can see how many people
would like that a lot.
