What is ONLYOFFICE?
ONLYOFFICE is a desktop office suite for macOS focused on everyday document work and team-compatible file editing. It helps users create, open, edit, and review text documents, spreadsheets, presentations, PDF files, and fillable forms from one app. The desktop edition is designed for people who want local document editing without needing a constant internet connection, while still supporting optional connections to cloud platforms for collaboration. Common uses include working with Microsoft Office formats, preparing reports and presentations, filling or creating forms, and reviewing shared files with comments or changes.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
ONLYOFFICE is a legitimate office productivity app for macOS. Its document access and file-opening behavior are consistent with its purpose, and cloud connections are optional for collaboration features. As with any office suite, be careful when opening documents from unknown sources, especially files that may contain active content such as macros or embedded objects. If you sign in to third-party cloud services, review which accounts are connected and remove any you no longer use.
Recommendation: Keep ONLYOFFICE if you use it for document editing, PDF work, or compatibility with office file formats. If you no longer use it, removing the app may also disconnect your saved cloud integrations and reset local preferences until you reinstall it.
