## Ways to pay less

- **Free DocSpace cloud for nonprofits and schools** (Nonprofit): Nonprofits and schools can request a free DocSpace cloud with 2 GB of storage and up to 20 admins. It requires an ONLYOFFICE banner on their website or a post about the partnership. Source: https://www.onlyoffice.com/free-cloud
- **Discounted rate for educational institutions** (Education): The DocSpace pricing FAQ says educational institutions other than schools can get a discounted rate. No figure is published. Source: https://www.onlyoffice.com/docspace-prices
- **Lifetime license for Docs Enterprise** (Lifetime license): Docs Enterprise can be bought with a lifetime license instead of a 1-year one. The version bought keeps working, but free updates end with the support period chosen, 1 or 3 years. Source: https://www.onlyoffice.com/docs-enterprise-prices

## Key features

- **Document, sheet and slide editors:** Online editors for text documents, spreadsheets and presentations, which the vendor describes as highly compatible with Microsoft Office and OpenDocument formats.
- **PDF editor and fillable forms:** Build fillable PDF forms and have them filled in online, read and edit PDFs, and convert documents to Markdown, HTML or e-books.
- **Real-time co-editing:** Co-edit in character-level or paragraph-level mode, track changes, compare documents, leave comments and mentions, and chat or call from inside the editor.
- **DocSpace rooms:** DocSpace sorts files into rooms with their own access rights: collaboration, public, form-filling and custom rooms, and virtual data rooms.
- **AI assistants and agents:** AI tools generate documents, sheets, slides and forms, rewrite and translate text, and extract text from scanned PDFs. Any AI model can be connected, including a fully local one.
- **Connectors and self-hosting:** More than 40 ready-made connectors add the editors to platforms such as Nextcloud, Box, Moodle, Odoo and WordPress, and the server can run on your own infrastructure.

## Good for

- Organizations that want to host their own office suite
- Teams on Nextcloud, Box, Moodle or Odoo that need document editing there
- Sharing files with clients in separate rooms with their own permissions
- People who want free desktop editors that work offline

## Worth knowing

- The free DocSpace Startup plan stops at 3 admins, 12 rooms and 2 GB, and lacks SAML SSO, LDAP, branding, a custom domain and the audit trail.
- DocSpace Business costs $20 per admin a month; the pricing page shows it as reduced from $30 and gives no end date for that price.
- Docs Enterprise is licensed by simultaneous connections, from $1,500 for a 1-year, 50-connection, on-premises license with Basic support.
- A 1-year Docs Enterprise license stops working when it ends; a lifetime license keeps running but loses free updates after its support period.

## Works with

Nextcloud, Box, Moodle, Odoo, WordPress, Trello, Pipedrive, Alfresco
