iWork Review : An Office Suite for Mac

October 18, 2012

Mac’s cutting-edge interface and user’s experience emphasis (let’s not forget the sleek and stylish design) makes it a favorite device in the graphic design (and animation) world. Apple is now eyeing the corporate white collared employees by improvising their office software and the result is iWork ’09. It is an office software for Mac OS X and iOS operating systems.

The first version of iWork was released in the year 2005. It bundled Keynote (a presentation program which was previously sold only as standalone application) and Page (page layout and word processing application). Apple release iWork ’08 in 2008 which included a spreadsheet application. 2009’s release iWork ’09 allowed documents to be shared online which could be done through iWork’s website (later replaced by iCloud).

Office Software for Mac : Features

iWork has an assorted range of features with which any small-businessman or a freelance entrepreneur can create a professional image in a snap. The complete office software basics are covered in three different programs:

  • Pages: a desktop and word processing program.
  • Numbers: a program for spreadsheet.
  • Keynotes: a program for creating presentations.

All the programs come with standards tools like text formatting, adding graphics, charts, tables, spell checker and others just like in Microsoft documents. You will have assistance for creating a professional document of every kind. These features come handy for anyone who owns Mac. The office software is not just for professionals, but also for students. There is an assorted range of styles and templates to choose from for creating attractive presentations.

PC usually features instant messaging programs and email in their office software. However, Email or instant message programs are not available in iWork (’09 version) as it comes in-built in Apple’s OS X and is pre-installed on all Mac computers. This eliminates the requirement to install any additional software. Everything about iWork is simple, well thought of and easy to use. The smooth graphical interface is what makes iWork so straight forward. Apple knows how to keep simple and does an excellent job with its every device. They have an efficient help and support programs with over-flowing tutorials and know-how on their website which eliminates any worry of going wrong once you buy the product.

iWork goes really well with Macs. Apple’s intuitive user interface and widespread support and help make their feature-filled products a delight to use. If you own Mac, iWord is perfect office software to use. It contains all the features you ever require to make your presentations look professional. The programs, keynotes and numbers programs allow you to deal with any work irrespective of education or work. You might face with problems if you try to transfer documents from page to word. If you need collaborative options that available in Microsoft, then it is best to stick with Microsoft Office.

In short, iWork has superb user interface and completely integrates with Mac OS X. integration, accessibility and simple design makes it perfect office software for Mac users. I would advise people to buy Mac just for the office software. You can get similar features in your PC’s Microsoft Office.
