Solve : Different Lotus Offerings?

Answer»

What is the difference between Lotus smart suit and Lotus symphony if I only want to use the spreadsheet application?

JohnVisit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Lotus_SmartSuite and then follow links there for info on Lotus symphony. As I understand it, both have the spreadsheet COMPONENT. So, you may want to GET the one that costs the least. The Lotus suite was a very powerful tool. And still is.

SmartSuite is in maintenance mode, and supported with fixes and fixpacks on Windows 2000 and Windows XP. SmartSuite is not officially supported by IBM on VERSIONS of Windows after XP, but it does work well on both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Vista and of Windows 7, if the installer and applications are RUN with XP compatibility mode set for the executable files. This mode isn't needed to install or run Organizer 6. IBM has no plans to release specific Windows 7-compatible versions of SmartSuite or Organizer.[1]
IBM is dropping support for Lotus. Version 9.8 is available from some independent vendors for less thn $25. It is copyrighted and its use is covered by a EULA.
