    Very pricey for the software that was not all that easy to load or use. Slow, especially the Excel. Word took forever to load to use.

    Microsoft just keeps getting worse. Each progressive program that microsoft designs gets more cumbersome and less user friendly.

    for how much this costs it was annoying to install and you can go and use Google docs for free instead of paying for this.

    Too hard to find things and nothing like the other Windows programs I have used. No start button, missing features such as picture editing and DVD maker that used to come with Windows. Instead you have to go to their site and download it. Also missing MANY fonts in Word that I used frequently. Wish I did not have Windows 8.

    I have used this software in the past a lot. However I will never buy it again. I live in the country therefore my best choice internet is Clear & download speed only goes to 2.9 so I have to take computer back to store & pay them to install it. I will be looking for different program in future since they don't make it available for people in the country who can't get high speed cable..

    Oh my god... I hope Windows is preparing a fix. I've had this 6 weeks already and it's ridiculous. So confusing to create the simplest documents. Is it possible they made these stupid changes to programs just because they could? No consideration to users.

    I could be set in my ways, and have none of the I phones or pads, so maybe that's why I don't like the new Windows.

    Not to easy to work with at all. The microsoft word and office was very easy and easy to work on my old XP windows I had.. It died and now am stuck with Windows 8 which is also not easy to work with. Not for older people like me (50-whatever).

    I am unhappy with my purchase, and I have lost time and money because I use my computer for my freelance business. BestBuy was of no help when I contacted them.

    It's a pain to have to relearn Word with almost every new release, but it is the standard so you have to use it.

    I have suffered thru other upgrades to Windows and eventually worked thru it, but this is so far different that any pervious experience is useless. I can't find start or a list of my docs. I may have to return it and get a older windows. This program is causing me to not get anything done.
