Collabora Productivity has announced the release of the first desktop version of its Collabora Office, bringing the full Collabora Online interface to Linux, Windows, and macOS as a native application.

For those who haven’t heard of the app, Collabora Office is an open-source office suite derived from the LibreOffice codebase, offering tools for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, and vector graphics.

Until now, its most modern user interface—the one used in Collabora Online (COOL)—was available only in the browser. With this release, that interface is now packaged as a local desktop app running entirely offline.

Their iOS apps work mostly but have annoying glitches for me. Android they run so slow they’re infuriating to use on a cheap tablet. I haven’t used their web app in a while on nextcloud but it wasn’t great either. Feature wise it seemed about the same when they work right. I guess it’s a nice coat of paint if you like web app type look.
