Review by:
5.0/5

Part of the Microsoft Office suite, Microsoft Word is one of the most popular document processing applications out there, comprising everything you need to carry out different office-related tasks. Everyone heard of Word, and while there are competitors out there, they usually do not match its feature set.

With a look that successfully manages to satisfy the latest trends, Microsoft Word enables you to create, edit and share documents while working in a familiar environment with intuitive options. Preserving the well-known ribbon layout, Word provides one-click access to all its features, from editing the font to reviewing the opened document.

You can easily change a document's style, organize paragraphs and manage indentation, or align graphic elements (such as charts, diagrams, shapes, tables, images, or embedded videos) to the text. The formatting options are variate and additional options, such as text watermarking, background customization and editing restrictions, help you personalize and protect your documents.

Microsoft Word also features a so-called 'Read Mode', which hides the editing toolbars, allowing you to enjoy going through each page and focus on the content.

As expected, Microsoft Word also bundles options to create a table of contents, making it easier for you to build the document's structure. Also, it enables you to insert citations and bibliography data, tables of figures and authorities, captions, footnotes, indexes, and other similar elements that can make your document look professional. Documents can be easily checked for spelling mistakes with Word's proofing tools, or translated using its dedicated feature.

Provided you save your document to the cloud, you can share it and use Word's collaboration features to edit it with your team members in real-time. Changes others made can be tracked, and comments can be added to share opinions.

Microsoft Word is, without a doubt, one of the best text editors out there, having a popularity rate that speaks for itself. Its feature set is fit for both the home user and the white-collar workers, delivering everything one needs to create well-structured and refined documents. And the file formats it is compatible with (including PDF and HTML) only adds it further versatility.
