Výchozí kancelářskou aplikací je OpenOffice.org 2. To je druhé vydání populárního kancelářského balíku, který obsahuje Writer, Calc, Draw, Impress a Math. Tento balík je svobodným ekvivalentem k Microsoft Office a každá aplikace odpovídá podobnému produktu z jeho balíku. Calc je hodně podobný Excelu, Writer je podobný Wordu, Impress je podobný PowerPointu a Base je funkčně podobný Accessu. OpenOffice.org může pracovat se všemi soubory bez problémů vyjma souborů Microsoft Access.
While all of these applications are installed by default, Kubuntu has chosen to rename the titles that are listed in the Application Launcher to better reflect how these applications are used and in some cases have removed them from the Application Launcher entirely.
