    The Office Home & Student 2013 provides a robust productivity suite including the latest versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote, and a streamlined interface with an intuitive Start screen. The enhanced flexibility with all the applications is great.

    Activation on-line was not as straight forward as I would have liked. The software is very different from Office 2010 and is going to take some time to become acquainted with it and proficient at it.

    I liked the old windows better. This is more advanced and more difficult to use. Has a lot more features but just means you have to learn how to use them.

    Windows office is great with better figure. But the one thing that I don't like is no cd. This down loading is not my thing they need to bring back the cd. And that yearly option really suck.

    Word, Powerpoint, and Excel 2013 are all steps above office 2007 and 2010. It is easy enough that someone who isn't looking to use all the features can navigate while people who need to use detailed processes and features have a variety to choose from.

    Office always has and always will be great. I miss the days when it came on a new computer. I am old school and miss having the cd-rom to load from and the book that taught me about my software.

    If you need to create spreadsheets, presentations, or any correspondence, Microsoft Office is the way to go. With a slew of templates to choose from, you'll never be at a loss for designs.

    Great product, I especially love the auto-saving mode. Sometimes I forget to save my work when I am working on a presentation. But with the new auto-saving feature it saves my work for me!

    I really haven't had time to work with it yet. 1 thing I dislike is its only for 1 computer but I have 2 with a ipad so for the price it should be able to be used on more then one computer.

    My work experience was with older versions of Excel and Word. I am struggling to find how to do some things on these programs because of the upgrades. I am sure they are easier for most people to use, but basic instructions would have been helpful.

    Great product. Only a little difficulty providing the necessary proof to be able to purchase this product. We did this online, and had some difficulty with the site. It was taken care of, and no other problems. Super deal for students and school staff.

    Getting a laptop with Windows 8.1 required a new upgrade. There are some difference in Word so I am still finding my way around the task bar, changing margins, etc. The documents I already had in Excel and Word have seamless been brought up.

    I have spent several hours with Microsoft Support and still can't get a valid Product Key Code so I can download the 2013 Home & Student software. I do not recomment purchasing software with only a card and key code because you can't get any help if there is a problem. Microsoft suggests I purchase the new 365 software and I don't want to buy another product since I have paid for one that I can't install.

    Microsoft Office runs as it ought to...although caveat emptor: when I purchased my copy I was told it was good for 3 computers. When I got it home I discovered it was good for only one.

    Windows 8 is not an update---it's a totally different program. Had I known this before I had it installed, I would have stayed with the old version.
