    Poor performance

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    New MS Office is somehow linked to internet rather than downloaded software. Results are greatly diminished speed and performance. Can't move seamlessly between spreadsheet/doc tabs, can't go back and forth between apps without delay that makes sharing and data extraction/copy/paste painful and nearly renders the app useless for large and/or complex usage.

      Hi there,

      Thanks for sharing your review. We would love to help you install on your second computer. It's a little different from the first time you install it since you will do the installation through your Office account this time. Simple log into your Office account on the new computer and there should be an option to install it from there. You can check out our help page for further instructions: https://aka.ms/AA4rq32.

      Hope that helps,

    When trying to delete something, it's not the same as what I am used to, so I guess I have to 'go to school'. :-(

      Hey there,

      Your annual subscription actually saves you quite a bit of money in the long run! Especially if you used to purchase every upgrade perpetual license upon release.

      Additionally, your purchase comes with 1 TB of OneDrive Storage, Outlook, mobile device management capabilities, the latest updates and security features, and free access to our Customer Support Team. You can also use Office 365 Personal on up to five devices at once! To learn more about Office 365, follow this link: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/what-s-new-in-office-365-95c8d81d-08ba-42c1-914f-bca4603e1426

      Cheers to your productivity!

      Sincerely,

    The product did not load, The second time it did but the subscription proved to be a problem. The Geek Squad Leader and store manager indicated that Microsoft was discontinuing some of their products and this happened. Very disappointing. Went on line and bought 2010 which installed well and had no subscription fees.

    I bought this when I purchased a Microsoft Surface Go tablet. I rarely use the tablet and find myself using Google Docs more often than anything else. If you completely invested in Microsoft Office, you’ll want to subscribe to this for the latest software but I’m on a budge and find that Google Docs meets my needs.
