Web Based MS Office Alternative By Cisco


04 Jul 2009



Cisco Systems Inc is considering offering a Web-based alternative to Microsoft Corp's popular Office software.

This service would allow business users to create documents they could draft and share through its WebEx meeting and collaboration service, which would be adapted to provide office-like features.

There are already many competitors in the online version of Office. Google Inc sells Google Docs, an Internet-based alternative to Microsoft Office that includes a spreadsheet, word processor and presentation software. Design software maker Adobe Systems Inc ADBE and privately held Zoho Corp offer similar products.

Cisco, over the past decade, has expanded its focus from routers and switches to a wider range of products including software and video products, such as high-end video conferencing systems called TelePresence and the WebEx service that facilitates online meetings.
