    Always reliable product and is a must buy for all new computer purchases. Cant beat the price and functionality of Microsoft Office.

    Better but still not Great

    I bought Office for Mac, not liking the Numbers and Pages programs offered on my MacBook Air. Word and Excel are certainly an upgrade. But they don't come close to the same programs on a Windows computer. Word uses multiple dictionaries in the same document, meaning the simplest words get underlined in red because it is looking in an Italian or Portuguese dictionary. How in the world does that happen--even though the program says my only assigned dictionary is English (US)? Formatting in Excel for Mac is much easier than using Numbers, but still not as easy as Excel for Windows--more of the same issues that I found with Word--where small things aren't smoothed out for Mac users.

    I teach school and needed this product for my newly purchased MacBook. I am pretty tech savvy & never had an issue downloading new software on my previous MacBook. However, the software number to download stated it was a previously used number. I called Microsoft customer service. I talked to one representative that insisted on calling me back (using an unknown number). Things seemed fishy- they (more than one “representative” talked me into logging onto my new computer - then told me I had a virus on my network- wanting me to purchase a virus package. Then they kept saying they were downloading my previously purchased software from Best Buy. It all seemed very unprofessional and made me feel uncertain who I was really talking to. I cancelled my credit card that night. I am still not sure if I truly have a virus on my brand new computer. Be careful!

    This is my first microsoft office mac version but it looks and works the same as windows versions. That being said, word has some formatting issues that make it difficult to combine text and graphics.

    Best Buy offers the Office 365 Home/Student software for $149.99; which I'm sure sounds quite expensive. But in all actuality its not bc 1-the software is for a lifetime(you never have to renew your subscription or pay a monthly fee) 2-with the coupons that Best Buy offered me; I got mine for $99.99 plus tax. For a college student (like myself) cost of things really matter; I love that I was able to get this software that I absolutely need for a great price!!

    I love my MacBook and apple products, but I can't live without Microsoft word and excel. Wish the pricing was a little bit better, but overall good product. Keep your card with the serial number though even after you download it, because if you lose it, you're stuck buying another one of something happens to your computer.

    I purchased this because even though I had the option of google docs, I wanted to liberty of being able to use a word document that was familiar to me. This was worth every penny. Still performs well and I use it a lot. Would buy again.
