    I had office 2010 that came with my dell computer . It was on a protected drive which prohibited my access to it. A Windows 10 update disabled it so I had to buy another version. The installation was simple, which is unusual because something always seems to happen when you install new software. I love the new version of excell. This is so much better than having to use disks f or updates etc. I would recommend office 2016

    I have used this program for years through all the changes and upgrades and it just keeps getting better. I recommend this for any student as it has all the programs needed such as PowerPoint, Excel, and Word for schooling and many more. I used it through my four year of undergraduate and graduated schooling and was able to make great grades by using such an excellent program that had so much required technology in them.

    No outlook, but otherwise great features. When my hard drive crashed, customer service helped me download it again without having to pay a second time! Would definitely buy again.

    Purchase a full version over subscription

    Although there are many open source alternatives to Microsoft office, I still think this is a great investment for a college student. The 2016 version hasn't changed that much and has some great tutorials if you do get confused on where buttons have moved. I also highly recommend that you purchase a full version over the new subscription method that so many software companies are migrating towards.

    Gave this to my parents as a gift with their new computer that didnt come with much installed on it. It has everything they need. It's easy to set up and easy to use. They can use it for basics and we can use it for more updated modern things. Works for everyone. One time payment, so you don't have to subscribe.

    I have not updated microsoft office since the 2003 version which I had become very comfortable with. When I got a new computer I bought office 2016 and I really love it. There are some new things that I was unsure of but there is a guide which I really appreciate!

    This is a must have for anyone in school! I use the programs daily for reports, papers, spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations and more. Microsoft Office is fairly easy to navigate and works well with several other programs. It is so convenient to be able to export into Excel!

    The new Microsoft Office software package incorporates mobile type aspects of what is becoming commonplace with newer generations. For someone who's not considered new, it's a little difficult to adapt to, but quite easy once you get used to it.

    I had an older full version of MSOffice. Didn't use some of the programs. This version is all I really need for home. I haven't had it too long so really only used Word, but I'm happy I bought it.
