    Of the MS Office Suite, I use primarily Word. I miss the old one, ca 1998-2003. The ribbon makes things unnecessarily complex and hard to find. They can't just leave a good product alone.

    This software package meets my needs for home use. Easy installation and no problems thus far. Wish it included some type of money/budget program as I needed to purchase that separately.

    I hope Windows 8 will meet all my needs. I have had some difficulty familiarizing myself with it - previous version was Vista. So this one is quite different and somewhat of a challenge.

    I have always used Microsoft Office Professional at work & home. It's kinda like teaching on old dog new tricks. I can figure it out, it just takes a little longer until I get use to it.

    I use it to open forms and applications I need to fill out for work. It is a little different since I have been using a Mac for the last 5 years. I have to get used to the PC again.

    I've always Inked the office program, and frankly, don't know what. I'd do without it. I've tried the "free" office programs out there and there is no comparison in my opinion.

    I love Office, but I wish I didn't need it. They're (Microsoft) out of control with all the different options and the ones where you need to renew every year are just ridiculous.

    This is perfect for a home computer. Plenty of templates if you need them and product support is wonderful and easy to understand.

    I love Microsoft Office! I knew right away when I purchased my computer I needed to get this too! I was unfortunate though that Publisher did not come with it and that is one of the programs I love the most! I am still glad I bought it!

    Windows 8 takes some getting used to, but after you get used to it it isn't too bad. I use the Power Point for work, so I really like that.

    The product is what I expected as far as Microsoft programs. However, I am very disappointed that you can no longer install on 3 computers.

    I like the Office package but I don't like having to be connected to the internet to set it up and download it. I like having the disc because not everyone has internet access.

    In XP I could go to My Computer and click on My Documents and find all my files, but on Office, I have difficulty finding my files. I have to go into Office and then try to find them.

    Son needed it for first year of college. Purchased when we bought the his laptop. We also purchased a service plan that covered the laptop. As part of the service agreement, the Geek Squad installed the program before we left the store.

    Too expensive. Microsoft and Best Buy need to lower the prices and provide hard copy manuals on how to make this product work for us.
