All in all, we liked CrossOver Office a lot. Its very easy to use and will come in handy for Windows users that need to run certain applications but dont want to spend time directly futzing around with Wine. Theres definitely some real value there for people migrating from Windows to Linux. CodeWeavers has provided a free 30-day trial version of CrossOver Office Standard. If youre the type that needs Windows applications in Linux, we recommend that you give it a download and try it out. Youll be glad you did.
