Customers are saying

Customers love the 365 Family subscription for its ease of use, compatibility across multiple systems, and great price. Many appreciate its performance, software features, and cloud storage capabilities. Installation is straightforward, and users value the regular updates and tools like Excel. However, some customers dislike the yearly subscription model, and a few have experienced issues with Outlook.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Not using it. Don't need another subscription, even if they give away 6 months for free

    MS compatibility is excellent but the updating is typical of all products Microsoft...error messages and all. It does fix the "jumble" that otherwise accompanies Word/Excel and some PP on Apple products including iPhone and iPad.

    This is a good product, but does not work for the computer it was advertised that you might want to purchase. I used on my home computer but would not of purchased if I had known it wouldn't work on the laptop.

    I am getting used to it but it does take some time to pull up and it is a little different than the one installed on my desktop. This was a cheaper route as I needed it on multiple applications

    I could only load product to one computer. Microsoft Reps. are a total pain in the neck. I was on hold for over an hour just to be told that they closed 20 minutes ago. Rep. told me to call back another day.

    It’s pretty simple, if you need word processing, spreadsheets or a program for presentations, this is the one. The downfall is now they are charging you annually so you can get the updates. It’s a Catch-22.

    It let me load it on one computer but will not let me load it to the other 5. I called in and they did not know how to do it. There should be an easier way to do this. I got frustrated.

    I have always used Microsoft Word, but Microsoft''s attempts to save on production costs have created an unfriendly consumer product. I expected a CD to accompany my Word purchase. Instead, I received a piece of cardboard with involved instructions on how to access Word online. The printing was done with microscopic registration, requiring a magnifying glass. I was interrupted several times with error messages and was finally asked to contact Microsoft technical support to finish installation. Thanks Microsoft. You saved yourself money. Now reimburse me for my time and frustration! Dean Ulsenheimer

    Microsoft has failed everyone on this transaction. They are not able to credit my account for the purchase. Would have given it a zero if I could have.

    I wasn’t aware I had signed up for this product, but it probably made sense since the updates are ongoing rather than becoming obsolete.

    We made the upgrade from Office 2007 to this new Office 365. It would be nice if we could just pay each year up-front instead of monthly renewal after the initial one year term had expired

      Hey there,

      With Office 365 you definitely should be able to pay annually. If that's not happening for you, we suggest going into your Microsoft account, click on Services and Subscriptions, and then click on Payment and Billing. That should lead you to a place within your account where you can manage your payment settings. Here's a link with more instructions for that process: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/account-and-billing-for-office-365-a898e0bc-c4dd-4d24-b9bb-f9e1b9b35a54?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US

      If that doesn't work, please reach out to our Customer Support Team for personal assistance.

      Sincerely,
      Jo

    Would not have bought this except I had to for work. Recently bought a Mac, but I had some PC's for work that needed it. Should have just paid double for the office 16 version because I don't need yearly updates
