    First, when I tried to take the tape off the code was so torn up that I could not read it. Geek squad read it on their computer and told me what it was. Second, when I tried to upload it to my computer a notice appeared that said that I should call a certain number. When I called, I was told that it could not load because I had a virus. Since it was a computer that I had just purchased from Best Buy, I returned the computer to them. They refunded the cost of the computer but would not refund the cost of the Office 365. For your info, the person at that number talked poorly of Kaspersky and tried to get me to buy another security system for $270. I would like to get my money back.

    The product is fine ,installation was a different story using the information on the card connected me to a false Web site that tried to charge me money to fix a non existing problem on my router ,when I refused i had to reset the brand new laptop in order to turn on. We called best buy support, they wanted to charge me money for a service to reset my laptop. Next called geek sqaud, they couldn't install. Finally had to contact the real Microsoft Support they dicovered best buy never activated they card the sold me. All in all a horrible experience .

    Difficult program to learn

    Office is probably a great program if one has been taught how to use it, but even the most basic functions have been difficult to figure out. It's a huge step up from the basic word programs and should have a manual to accompany its purchase.

    I am not a fan of subscription software, but software developers want a predictable flow of income. If you need Office for more than 2 years, buy a permanent license. Get the subscription if you need the software for a shorter period of time or if you need the latest versions or also want the tablet/phone versions.

      Hello Tallman610, Actually having the Office 365 subscription gives you much more then just the latest version of Office for your PC and mobile devices. You also get 1TB of cloud storage, 60 mins of free Skype calling per month and with Office web apps, you are able use your Office subscription on a PC that does not have Office installed on it. With traditional Office (permanent license), these benefits are not included so it really would depend on your needs. We hope this was helpful to you. Microsoft

    I was told by buy Best Buy that this version could be installed on two devices (1 Computer and 1 Tablet). I come to find out that it can only be installed on one, so I feel like this was incorrectly described to me during the purchase. I have also spent hours online trying to get to the bottom of this issue.

      Hi there,

      Thanks for your review. While you may have only needed Word, we wanted to let you know that included in Office 365 Personal is 1TB of OneDrive Cloud storage. You can use that for storage of anything you need.

      Have a great one,
