About Collabora
Collabora Office is the specialized enterprise version of LibreOffice, developed by Collabora Productivity. It bridges the gap between community-driven open-source software and the needs of large-scale organizations by providing professional support, long-term maintenance, and hardened security. The suite includes tools for word processing, spreadsheets, and presentations, available across desktop platforms and mobile devices. The flagship offering, Collabora Online, is a powerful LibreOffice-based online office suite that can be integrated into existing infrastructure or cloud storage solutions (like Nextcloud or ownCloud). It enables real-time collaborative editing of documents within a web browser while ensuring the user retains full control over their data. As a major contributor to the LibreOffice codebase, Collabora ensures high compatibility with Microsoft Office formats while championing open standards.
