Fantastic office productivity suite. Powerful and easy to use. I'm happy to be leave behind the bloated, slow, crash-prone Microsoft software. iWork is far more pleasant to use everyday.
Customer rating is 3 of 5  Good, but missing pro features and sometimes slow   2010-09-06
By B. Stevens (Chandler, AZ USA)
iWork 09 ( released in January 2009 - approximately 1 yr 8 months old ) is due for an update. Possibly Apple diverted its development resources to the iPad/iPhone and let iWork for the Mac languish.

For my personal use Numbers does an adequate job, but loading and scrolling is slow when I open a spreadsheet with 6 tables in it ( this is on a an iMac 3.06 GHz Core 2 Duo running OS X 10.6.4, 4GB Ram with only Numbers open ). Numbers and Pages are not compiled as 64-bit ( see Apple's Activity Monitor to verify ), so presumably they are not taking advantage of multiple cores via Grand Central Dispatch.

My current professional need to create a multi-page report form is not possible in Pages because it doesn't create forms ( i.e the capability to add drop down menus, check boxes, etc. ) like Word does and doesn't have the ability to programatically check( as Word can do with built-in VBA - forthcoming in Office 2011 for Mac ) the status/content of those fields. Maybe an iWork update will include Automator actions aimed specifically at Numbers/Pages.

iWork provides 95% of my needs ( albeit slowly sometimes ) but the prospect of installing and learning two Office tools ( i.e. Word and Pages, Numbers/Excel ) to achieve 100% coverage does not leave me sanguine.

If iWork is not updated to at least improve lethargic performance, Office 2011 ( due October 2010 ) will be trialed even though MS's history of providing timely updates to Mac Office is less than stellar. Its support of MBU ( and thus the products MBU produces ) seems to ebb and flow with the fortunes of Apple.

Silver Berries is a great company. I purchased the IWorks09 for my Macbook and I experienced difficulty when installing. The employee of Silver Berries was very kind, patient, and was a great deal of help to my problem. If I need to purchase something in the future I will definitely look for them and recommend them to others in the future.
Customer rating is 5 of 5  iWork '09 vs. Microsoft Office   2010-08-28
iWork '09 is a great tool for use in school, at the office, or just for home use. It's good alternative to Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac Home & Student Edition. I prefer iWork over Office because iWork is compatible with Office, but it has that easy-yet-amazing Apple touch. One flaw I noticed was in Pages (Pages is like Word) there aren't as many options such as borders to make the document look nicer such as in Word. I bet that features such as borders will be added in the next version of iWork. Here is an overview of each product in iWork vs. Office:

Pages vs. Word:
Pages is an easy to use word processing application where you can customize your documents and add your own personal flair. Pages comes with many more templates (such as newsletters, resumes, screenplays, envelopes) than Word, and it doesn't have those cheesy clip arts that make your document look "good". Apple takes a different approach here and makes everything look more professional, fun, and productive. You can also export Pages projects as Word files, so there aren't any compatibility issues; for Mac or PC. Other than those bonuses, Pages is just Apple's version of Microsoft Word. Depending on what you need, you could like either Word or Pages better, I personally prefer pages because of all the templates.

Numbers vs. Excel:
Numbers is very similar to Excel. While numbers has more themes and graphics to make your document look better, it is not as different as Keynote and PowerPoint. Excel has lots of color schemes and graphs, but numbers has all that plus personalized layouts, such as graphs, photos, and maps laid out on the document. While the two are the most similar out of all the the iWork and Office programs, I still choose Numbers over Excel because of the appeal of the final project.

Keynote vs. PowerPoint:
Keynote and PowerPoint are the most different here. Keynote Is much, much better than PowerPoint in my opinion. I think that PowerPoint is Office's biggest flaw. With PowerPoint, you build new pages that really don't have a set theme (that I know of), but with Keynote you get 44 different themes to choose from, then a template for each page that you want to create (such as a page for photos, a page for pros and cons, or just a blank page). And each page keeps a cool theme that make the overall document say,"Wow!". PowerPoint doesn't have nearly as many of the features that Keynote does.

Overall, iWork is better than Office in my opinion. Office isn't a bad choice, in the end it really boils down to personal preference. One thing to note is that iWork is Mac only, so that can leave you with Office as your only option. Get a free trail of both software suites then base your choice off of that. I hope I helped! :)
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Going to make some money with this software!   2010-08-27
By D. Hansen (Shelby Twp., MI United States)
For under $50 I think I just made the purchase of my life. I can't spell out all the plans, but I'm only using ONE of the three software products included - Keynote. I won't use it in the traditional sense of slideshow presentation, but I've got this idea that I can easily make a six figure income on. So, check with me in a year and I'll tell you how it all worked out!
