    Since it is basically necessary to have word processing software, this was a great choice. Free alternatives don't compare. I just wish it was cheaper.

    I've always been a fan of Microsoft Office software. I use a Mac and a PC. I've bought the software for both platforms so that I could work. I'm not a techy but I do stuff in Word and Excel a lot. Best Buy does price match and I got a great deal!

    Well you really have no choice if you want your children to be able to do home work on a computer/laptop you have to purchase this product either subscribe to it or buy it. What happened to the good old days when computers came pre loaded with it.

    Easy to install and use. The price is a bit much but if you need it, it's worth it, at least it last a lifetime.

    Since this is what we use at work, it's good enough. Never been a big fan of Word, and it just keeps getting more complicated, but have to use something and these are compatible with work.

    The latest MS changed the menu to facilitate desktop publishing but the menu of fonts is still somewhat intrusive on the home screen. Editing is easy, and I could edit documents created on an Apple with no problems. MS Word and the whole suite still familiar but the MS penchant for pop-ups and too much help while I am writing gets in my way sometimes. A decent tool if you like Microsoft and, unfortunately, more functional than the latest edition of Open Office.

    I was not happy that I had to buy this product. Laptops/notebooks only come with a trial copy nowadays!!! The Best Buy associate led me to the best product for me. Did not sell me the most expensive but the one that actually worked for me!!

    Office is always good but when did the stop putting it on computers that you buy?? I really like this one because you dont have to renew it each year, although you can only use it on one computer. This one has all the basics that you need

    I got this product for my mom and she found it easy to use and very helpful. I also like how easy it was to install and get started right away using it. If it was easy for my mom then anybody can install and use this product no problem. I think that best buys prices are reasonable and competitive with others stores and have wide variety of products. And a helpful and educated staff that can explain and point you in the right direction to what you need.

    Microsoft Office is kind of pricey but I really couldn't do without it. I use Word far to often. It's updated since I last got it though. I like it.

    I have had issues with Microsoft in installing this program. In the last year I have loaded three on three different personal and business laptops and computers. I had trouble with all three with user names passwords with Microsoft and with Microsoft allowing my new serial numbers to show new and not expired. Costs lots of money to fix and had to have the program. Great program that is a must to have. However I personally had many issues loading it

    A necessary evil

    It is difficult to get by without using Microsoft Office for most people. As far as the software goes it's the same but different to older versions. The licensing however has changed if you haven't had to buy Office for a few years which is annoying. The license is now linked to the machine on which you first install it which means you can't uninstall it on one machine and reinstall it on a different one... at least not without a phone call to Microsoft.

    This is the optimal Microsoft Office deal I could think of for a student. I personally don't know why anyone would only want MS Office for a year, so I got the lifetime one. The disadvantage is that you can only put it on one system.

    I love the fact that this item is such a complete package. It allows me to write up quick notes to print and add to scrapbook pages, keep track of health track record, excel files let me keep track of balances on credit cards and due dates and allows for easy tracking on finding payment made or not made. I use this almost daily for just about everything I do. I am able to make my own receipts for a home base party plan business. Almost at t ouch of a button everything comes together for taxes. Just such a great way to keep track in a fun and easy way.
