SSuite Office is a free collection of office software, desktop applications, and browser-based web apps. Its downloads include office suites, word processors and text editors, spreadsheets, and online apps. The maker describes the desktop software as native Windows code using the WIN32 API; online apps run inside a browser rather than in the cloud. The maker says its desktop software, Android apps, and Progressive Web Applications do not require an account or login prompt. Document formats include RTF and XLS, while online text editors support HTML5 and PDF. Word processors list exports such as BMP, TIFF, PDF, SSP, EMF, JPG, PNG, and GIF. SSuite also describes serverless local-area-network tools for video phones, chat, conferencing, and file transfers. The listed platforms are Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows, though desktop apps are listed for Windows. Both the desktop software and online office suite are listed at free, with no recurring subscription fees. The maker says it offers free online user support and does not include third-party add-ons, toolbars, installers, or software distributions.
