    If it's for use on a Mac, just buy at Apple Store

    I purchased this software and tried installing on a new Mac. It downloaded but was 'unable to activate' - I kept getting a message requiring an online subscription. So, I paid Geek Squad to install it - but the Geek Squad tech was also still 'unable to activate' the software. I've been a very loyal Buy customer for a very long time - but this experience has destroyed that relationship.

    I bought this version as an alt to subscription. For a long while I used an older version and loved it. This version is somewhat harder to use. I am not a fan of the format.

    There are so many basic changes, that it is taking time to get used to using this version. I do not like the default to saving everything in "The Cloud" and I still have not figured out how to organize downloads into folders.

    Told Best Buy Employee and Dell Rep that we specifically needed Outlook, but didn't want hosted version. Well, Outlook is not included in this license, so had to go out and order Outlook from Microsoft. Problem though, they sell hosted/cloud version so Outlook history PST file can't be imported. So, total waste of money for both. Suggest buyer should go with web version provided by email host, and free Open Office ,if office suite is required.

    Not really easy - at least for me. I'm still trying to find things that I used to use all the time with Word. Haven't yet discovered what the benefits of 365 are over Word.

    I was happy with the previous version. I was forced to get this because the previous version was incompatible with Windows 11.

    Microsoft Help Costs Much Money

    This is the second Miscrosoft Office Program that cost me money. It works well, but the installation tells you to call a number. I had to purchase AVG for $300 to get it fully installed. Microsoft needs to prevent this from happening. I bought my other computer about 1.75 yeats ago. I had to pay then, too.

    Many features I used from the PC version do not seem available on the MAC version. Many little things. But not having what is still there and being able to get into old files is priceless.

    This is good for basic needs and functionality for using Word and Excel. But Outlook isn't included.

    This is the third office home and student software I have purchased for different computers. The other 2 were a piece of cake installing. This one is not. Been working on it for two weeks and still don’t have it all downloaded.

    MS does not help you unless it’s something that they have on their problems that they have come across and dealt with. It is all on a link that they sent to you. You do not ever talk to anybody. You cannot talk to anybody. I would never buy another Microsoft product ever again. Best Buy even tried to get them to help us and they could not get to talk to anybody

    Microsoft are getting tighter with their Office Suite. They are pushing to 365 service which I don’t want. I no longer get Access with my software.

    It isn't super easy to use. I'm very familiar with word but this version. I don't see save as anywhere and it's just not as user friendly as the older versions
