My Own Suite

ONLYOFFICE

ONLYOFFICE is the “Google Docs” part of My Own Suite: a modern, browser-based office suite with real-time collaboration - while keeping your files in your own stack.

In My Own Suite, ONLYOFFICE is integrated with Seafile, so you can open and save documents directly from your private file library.

Why people love ONLYOFFICE

  • Modern, familiar editing experience in the browser (docs, sheets, slides).
  • Real-time collaboration: co-edit with others, add comments, and review changes.
  • Great compatibility with Microsoft Office file formats (Word/Excel/PowerPoint).

What you can do

  • Write and format documents, build spreadsheets, and create presentations.
  • Co-edit in real time or review with tracked changes.
  • Keep everything in your own stack: your files live in Seafile, not on a third-party drive.
