    I have used Publisher, Outlook and Word for years. Now its subscription. Outlook has ceased receiving emails. Why? No troubleshooting available. My husband who is a computer professional had a terrible time trying to fix Outlook.

    It's not the product itself, it's the card I was given. The store sticker was on the barcode needed to install the product. I tried to scratch it all off as easy as possible but the last 4 digits were u readable and I was unable to use the code. Not happy.

    I would have preferred to get a disc because activating it online was a bit frustrating. I need the programs but I am not sure it is worth the price and frusfrustration. Instead of renewing when it expires, I might go with the free similar programs.

    Would not download completely. I got it for work and personal use, but it keeps telling me not completely downloaded. I don't know what to do at this point, feel like I wasted my money because I'm loosing my time to use it since it's not working.

    Standard faire here. Word, Excel, etc. Microsoft found another cash cow with the subscription business model. Get the customer to pay year after year. Too many other office productivity suites out there that do so much more for much less $$$.

    However I don't too much care for best buys 14 day policy. I purchased and realized I didn't need it. (My school offers it for free) I was not able.to return it. Even though it was unused and in perfect condition (unscratched) on the 15th day.

    I purchased a printer and Microsoft office 365 was included for free. Then after I installed the software a few months later I was charged $69.99 and there's no way to cancel it and it renews every year. I'm very disappointed and frustrated about not being able to get my money back because I don't want this product and you can't cancel, so don't accept free offers because there's a price to pay!

    MS Office on the Cloud

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

    Office 365 Personal – 1 Person – 12 Month Subscription – Auto Renew - Android|Mac|Windows|iOS is a cloud-based/download MS Office for PCs, Macs, iOS, and Android. Office 365 attempts to simplify the cross-platform access for their popular Office Suite. The download and installation is simple and easier than other versions of the product. It is powerful enough for most users yet lacking the more advanced features of Access. Mirroring Office 2016, this version feels a bit more clunky to me as it is driven by online access rather than the smoother operation of a hardcopy installed on the hard-drive. PROS - Widely universal applications - Easy installation and setup - Applications are effective for most users - Always up to date - Low overall cost, with annual fee CONS - Cloud-based is clunkier than a clean copy of 2016 - Annual fee required - cannot own it outright like previous editions

    They invent a lot of new stuff and expect you to automatically know how to use it. Explanations of how to are non existant and when you phone in for help, Microsoft techs want cash up front prior to an answer. Everyone is out for a buck!

    I was not aware that this was an annual subscription and would not have purchased it, if I'd read the fine print. Outlook 2013 is not a great product and that's predominantly what my father-in-law uses.

    During our Christmas shopping reason, I did buy 2 laptops, One Sony TV , one ipad, hp Mouse and Microsoft office for more than $ 3000 This afternoon I went to return the Microsoft office, but unfortunately Mr. Xavier at Best Buy in greenbrier, chesapeake, VA, Refused to return this item even this Microsoft office package was Intact and I didn’t open it. So, I don’t recommend any body to buy Microsoft office item From anywhere specifically from bestbuy.

    I don’t understand how come Microsoft cannnot come up with an affordable version that doesn’t need to be bought every year. Once loaded I should not need a yearly subscription. How much money does Microsoft need.
