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.

    I contacted the Geek Squad by phone and they researched if I could use my old programs and found I could not so they transferred me over to Best Buy sales. After I got the new software the Geek squad helped installing it.

    We needed a Microsoft Word program for an Apple MacBook and the sales attendant was able to answer all our questions. Once home we stepped through the instructions to upload and everything worked first time. Thanks Best Buy and Microsoft.

    This is an absolutely necessary purchase when you buy your new computer. I like Microsoft products generally. GEEK Squad installed it without additional charge. I thought the Office Home & Student 2019 was priced fairly at Best Buy.

    First I want to mention that yes, it is a lot to spend at one time to purchase this product. However the amount of money you will be saving by doing the one-time product key purchase versus doing a subscription is worth it.

    Moving to Office 2019 from Office 2007 is mind boggling. 2019 has bells and whistles I will never use. They changed and hid all of the buttons I am familiar with. Just finding how to do what I am familiar with is a big learning curve.

    Microsoft has been pushing the sale of 365 but their stand alone is the only way to go. Simply download from Microsoft website and enter license serial number from card. This is not a CD, only a product license serial number.

    This bundle is perfect for a college kid or someone who keeps the same computer for a long time. It has all the different word products and is very effective for someone who needs or used them all, or even just a few of them.

    Such an expensive way to access my old files

    I know Google Docs is free and it lets you open Word and Excel files, but the interface just wasn't exactly the same so I bought the one-time purchase version of this software. I think it's crazy to pay annual fees (especially such high ones) but I'm hoping to have my MacBook for 6+ years so this should pay for itself.

    The package contains the three most important products that I need and use often. However, I wish that this version also contains one more product like Outlook or a database product.

    I would never have a computer without Office. I have not used it except for a few things but Office has been great for me for years. I thought though that the price was a bit exorbitant for one year service. Simple to install.

    Another option for Office 365

    Very useful Office program that does not being renewed every year. Big money saver! Does not offer the full content of the Office 365 software but is certainly adequate for the non-business person.

    While you get all the new bells and whistles with 360, we just needed the basics and knowing we didn't have to worry about paying an annual fee to use these apps. Due to Covid-19 kids had to switch to online learning.

    Much less expensive than Office 365, but that depends on what you need. All I really needed was Excel, but Word comes with this, so it is a plus. More expensive in initial payment, but this is lifetime with updates, so that should be considered.
