			Update 2018-07-31. CODE fixed our hyperlink issue above after 4 months after I created the request, but 9 months later there's been no progress on the second request for lines/arrows/shapes. I added a comment mentioning that this lacking feature was blocking our org from adopting LibreOffice Online, and asking if there was an ETA.

New page

This article will discuss alternatives to Google Docs.

=Why=

Google docs is not FLOSS; it's a huge dependency that doesn't mix well with the OSE mission.

=Requirements=

An alternative to Google Docs should meet the following requirements:

# Collaborative Editing that works (no corruption, bugs, etc)
# Rich editing, including
## text
## images
## hyperlinks (for both text & images)
## easily draw arrows & other shapes
# Images can be easily click & dragged (without lag)
# Efficient embeddability and viewability in wiki

=Alternatives=

Here are several possible Google Docs alternatives that may meet the OSE requirements

==LibreOffice Online==

In 2015, Collabora Productivity--a company that provides ~33% of LibreOffice Online code commits & provides commercial L3 support for the project--began advertising demos of their Colabora Online Developer Edition (CODE), which is the FLOSS version of LibreOffice Online https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/LibreOffice_Online

In Dec 2015, CODE was released as part of a joint venture with ownCloud. This early version did not have collaborative editing or rich editing. https://www.infoworld.com/article/3014654/open-source-tools/libreoffice-as-a-service-offers-alternative-to-google-docs-office-365.html

In Nov 2016, CODE 2.0 was released, which included collaborative & rich editing of all popular office file formats: docx, doc, odt, xlsx, xls, ods, pptx, ppt, odp. https://www.itwire.com/cloud/75565-new-version-of-libreoffice-online-released.html
