An office suite is a collection of bundled productivity software (a software suite) intended to be used by knowledge workers. The components are generally distributed together, have a consistent user interface and usually can interact with each other, sometimes in ways that the operating system would not normally allow. Most contain a word processor, a spreadsheet, an email client and presentation software; some might contain a database program. Several office suites have their own topics: Microsoft Office, Office 365, LibreOffice (also known as OpenOffice), Lotus IBM and Google Apps.
