Ulteo Brings OpenOffice to any Web Browser

Ulteo, a new startup founded by Gaƫl Duval, has launched a web-based version of OpenOffice.org that can be accessed from any web browser.

In addition to OOo’s huge featureset, this version adds realtime collaboration, Google Docs-style:

“As well as offering instant ‘no-install’ access, Ulteo’s service also provides OpenOffice.org users with instant collaboration capabilities. A user working with OpenOffice.org on the Ulteo server can invite other people to work with him or her on a shared document in real time.”

However, its base featureset is larger, and hence the press release can realistically make the following claim: “With Ulteo, OpenOffice.org becomes the de facto best online productivity suite. It is standards based, mature, with lots of features.”

    Thank you Ben for spreading the news.

    So far the feedback is great and of interest to a lot of people. It both help current OpenOffice.org users by letting them use the suite in a new online and collaborative way but also let new potential users try it very easily.
    Keep up the good work, your blog is a great place for good information about OpenOffice.org
    Cheers
