      Hello FMCC, Paying for a yearly subscription to Office 365 really depends on what your needs are. With Office 365, not only do you get fully installed versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, and more directly to your PC, but you also get it on your tablet including iPad, Android, or Windows, plus your smart phone. Includes 1TB cloud storage, call any mobile and landline phones with 60 monthly Skype minutes and ongoing access to updates to the latest versions of Office. We hope this was helpful to you. Microsoft

    Have not yet been allowed to download as Microsoft says "I turned on two-step verification for the Microsoft account." I don't believe I did this, but now I cannot download this product until April 10th.

    Reminds me of the cartoons of Boy Scouts dragging old ladies across intersections to fulfill their good deed quotas. Complicated beyond reason...and way beyond intuitive. Worst purchase in recent memory.

    Microsoft should allow an ala cart option + charge accordingly. We need office +/excel. Now we have 10 other things on the computer we will never use + have to deal with all the unwanted updates.
