From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Probably not because it would need to be an off-the-peg solution with support included for my bosses to even begin to consider it. But I have heard of Collabora and I know it's decent.

More in the running would be a cloud solution from the amazing Framasoft, including Framapad

None of this is to disparage LibreOffice, which apparently offers value to many people and that's great.
