Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the ease of use, price, and the inclusion of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint in Office Home & Student 2019. Many appreciate the software's performance and straightforward installation process. While some users wish for Outlook to be included and for the product to offer ongoing updates, the overall feedback highlights its value for its core applications. The lack of a subscription model is also frequently cited as a positive aspect.

    A very frustrating experience to start out...you MUST have a microsoft email account to download this...only that was never made clear. Once I knew that, it was OK. That was 4 hours of my life trying to figure it out with the Geek Squad....I'll never get that time back...

    Once installed on one's personal computer, this product stays permanently. This is not like the similar product which may cost a bit less, but must be periodically renewed. If one is not concerned about every possible upgrade as it appears, this is a much better deal.

    Purchased this student software for a spare laptop that I use to travel out of country. I mostly only need the basic functions of Word, Excel and PowerPoint when traveling. Glad this lower price is offered to students and teachers. Meets my needs at an affordable price.

    I was so bummed my computer had only 2 ports. I went to Best Buy and was assisted in finding a USB port I could plug into my computer to make it a six USB port computer! Was very reasonably priced and I'm 100% satisfied with my purchase and the expert sales advice I received!

    Bought this along with a laptop for my son for college because I figured he would need it. I believe the program will be beneficial I just wish it didnt have to be so expensive or bring back when they included it for free when you purchased a tower or laptop. They do have a subscription paid base as well but I found that even to be ridiculous.

    I think that the HP Envy works well, for the work I do as a healthcare provider. I paid a modest price for a quality product that has decent processing speed, good camera and resolution. This portable computer is accessible and dependable, while also offering touch screen and positional options for screen viewing.

    Great software package for pros and beginners alike. However, I had a problem. The software was not activated at the time of purchase, which I was not aware . Therefore, I spent many hours trying to load. Eventually had to return to the store, problem solved.

    After purchasing a new computer for my parents I also had installed the Microsoft office 365 for them. With the ads and then work that they would do on word Excel or PowerPoint this application suits them extremely well

    It was a wonderful card made from the finest card material. The printing was so easy to read... all kidding aside, I followed the minimalist instructions on the card and had Office installed and running in short order, no issues, just what I expected from Microsoft.

    My old computer has Office Home and Student 2010 installed on it which I am very accustomed to using. This 2019 edition is compatible with my 2010 edition & I can modify my old files that I copied to my new computer. It works a bit differently but not difficult to figure out.

    This was added to my new all in one Dell. Replace older Office programs on my old computer. Greek Squad helped install the program and walked me through operation on new Excel and Word. Very satisfied with new program and compatibility with older files.

    Windows 10 does not come with Office and I use Works and Excel often. Since I only needed it on 1 computer I did not want a subscription. This works out cheaper in the end for me. Very easy to install and works great. A smooth transition for all my old files.

    When I purchased my new laptop, there was simply no question about it. I had to have Office installed. I'm not sure I could function without it. I use Word on a regular basis, copying recipes, articles, etc., and track savings, investments, budgets, etc. on Excel. Best Buy had a great price on the Home & Student version, and it suits my needs perfectly.

    I don't have the need for annual updated office, and don't like the idea of having to pay an annual subscription for that. tried some of the free 'clone' type software, and honestly they're pretty good, however, when sending\receiving files from others, you simply need to have the basic msft office software. This does the trick.

    I used Microsoft Office at work and wanted to have it on my new computer. This version is different than what I was used to but I'm still able to figure out the options I like. It was much nicer when the computers came with programs already on them so you didn't have to purchase them separately though.

    The preloaded apps on my mac work fine, but working in an office that is a majority Windows users, this is a must have to be able to properly share and create documents. New editions work smoothly, look great, and have plenty of good changes from older editions.

    As expected. Total Tech support had to assist after Windows did an update and I lost my previous office. They had to escalate up to higher tech guy but he was able to remove what remained on my computer and install this new one.

    Microsoft made it difficult to install

    I am happy with the product. It has compatibility with my older files. The only problem was my Dell computer came preloaded with an Office 365 trial and Microsoft made it very hard to get rid of the 365 trial and install the purchased Office program. The 365 program kept trying to override access to the paid program and force a subscription.
