    I primarily bought this software to be able to use Microsoft word but I am looking forward to using the other programs as well because of the new changes that have been incorporated to the software - I definitely like the new look of the programs. I believe it to be a great value - well worth the price!

    I have had no troubles at all in adjusting to Microsoft office home and student. I find the Word application to be a breeze as is the excel. After I figured out how this worked in Windows 8, I have had no problems. Office home and student has everything I need to keep track of my daily organization.

    Since this is the way software installs are going to work in the future, I took this as my first opportunity to install a program via direct manufacturer download. It used an easy wizard, was fast and insured that I had the latest version. Not I have no problem doing this with other programs in the future.

    My son was given a laptop which did not have word installed, so I had to buy it for him. I was not interested in an annual subscription arrangement. This was the cheapest option and has everything he needs. It does not have Outlook Express.

    Just started working with this and not seeing much difference from 2010 version for the things I do and features I need. However, I bought it for some of the newer features that I have yet to explore...hope to report back later on those.

    Microsoft Essentials

    As a writer, I live on Microsoft Word, and depend on it daily. In my youth and teenage years, I was used to simply having a computer that had all the programs this Office package contains by default. I honestly hate that I had to spend $100 some dollars on a few programs that should have already been on the laptop. When I purchased my laptop, I was told by the cashier that I needed the Microsoft Office package in order to have MSWord, and was an extra expense. On the good side, I do like having MSWord and MSPowerpoint, but I feel like I shouldn't have had to make an extra payment for programs that, once upon a simpler, cheaper time, once were on a computer by default...

    It's a flat purchase for office to use on one computer. Recommend over the yearly lease type offer.

    I was hoping to convert all my Outlook database files over to the new software but it does not have Outlook a part of it. If you want just word processing and spreadsheet it is fine.
