Talking points for KDE software

These are the best arguments for students to use KDE software

A wide range of programs

KDE includes a wide variety of programs for all of the students' needs. There are many applications that the student can choose from and do his work.

Solutions for all of the student's needs

Since KDE includes a wide variety of programs, it is obvious that these programs will cover all (or at least most) of the student's needs. The student will not have to find, install and use other software; everything comes with KDE and If a student had a previous experience with other desktops,he will find alternatives for all of the programs he used. More information about the students' tasks and solutions with KDE software can be found here

Easy-to-use software

KDE's applications are easy to use, to learn and to interact with. This means that most students/teachers will not experience problems with these applications. KDE is going to be their best friend!

Continuous support

Just in case someone experiences problems with one or more applications, there is continuous support for KDE. Documentation for each one program is being provided. There are also some places where the user can ask for support (e.g. forums, irc etc.) and since KDE has a big community, he/she should never fell alone and abandoned. People from all over the world would be happy to help him/her with his/her problems.

An awesome Graphical User Interface

KDE as a Desktop as well as its applications come with an amazing Graphical User Interface that every student will love and will enhance his/her experience.

Freedom

KDE and its applications are free software. This means that everyone is free to use, copy, remix, distribute these programs. Users will be able to freely give a copy of these programs to a friend, study them and change their functions etc.
