If you work entirely in Apple's ecosystem, you may find the Pages word processor and Numbers spreadsheet attractive, but they're not remotely as powerful as Word and Excel, and if you want to share Pages or Numbers files with other people, you have to remember to export them in Office or PDF formats. If you're willing to work entirely in mobile app or browser, you can use Google Docs for documents and spreadsheets. It's the lowest-hassle way for multiple users to enter data on a shared spreadsheet, but you won't get the elegance and power of Office's mobile apps.

Microsoft Office may be the de facto productivity tool for millions of workers worldwide, but it's no monolith. Rather than a single, towering smooth-black Office, there's a whole Stonehenge of options: Office on the iPhone, on iPad, Office on Android smartphones, Office on personal computers, Windows and macOS, Office with a handful of applications, Office with fistfuls'. But when you get down to it, there are really only two kinds of Office. One, which most label Office 2016, is the stand-alone suite that traces its roots back to the last century.

Office 2016 vs. Office 365 Here’s the main difference: Office 2016 is the the traditional Microsoft Office product, sold for a one-time, up-front fee. You pay once to buy a version of Office 2016 you can install on a single PC or Mac and use for as long as you like.

In August 2016, Microsoft released an automatic update that replaced the old 32-bit code of Office for the Mac with 64-bit code. The 64-bit version starts up faster, but otherwise it looks and acts like the earlier code, which was already an Editors' Choice for office suites. Payment Options Microsoft managed to make using Office for the Mac easy for anyone familiar with Office for Windows, while also integrating it more closely than ever into the OS X ecosystem. Subscribers can download Office 2016 for as little as $6.99 per month for one license, or $69.99 per year. If you prefer the traditional buy-once-use-forever model, Office Home and Business will run you $229.99 for one license. A stripped-down Office Home and Student is also available for a $149.99 one-time fee. The main difference in Home and Student is that it does not include Outlook or Access.

Certainly there's been confusion in this area, and Microsoft is somewhat at the root of it. In any case, so far, so good.

It is, however, more like an online subscription-based ecosystem in which you run apps, access remote data, collaborate on files, and exchange information. If you get confused trying to sort out exactly how it works and what it does, you're not alone. In this review, I've tried to sort out the answers in a way that lets you get the most out of Office 365, because there's a strong chance that Office 365 is in your future, even if you aren't using it now. Microsoft still lets you buy standalone versions of Microsoft Office in the way everyone used to buy standalone versions of major apps, but the company has priced and packaged Office 365 to make it more attractive than the standalone versions. For example, the standalone version of Office 2016 sells for $149.99 (though it's often on sale); the Home and Business version is $229.99; and the Professional version costs $399.99. But a one-year subscription to Office 365 Home, at just $9.99 per month or $99.99 per year, lets you install the full desktop version of Office on five PCs, which can be any mixture of Windows and Mac machines, plus five tablets and five phones, which can be iOS, Android, or Windows Phone devices. If you just need one installation of each device type, you can get Office 365 Personal for $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year.

You don’t need to pay for Office to get OneNote. How to Save Money on Office 2016 or Office 365 While we’re quoting Microsoft’s official prices here—the prices you’ll pay at a Microsoft Store, for example—you can usually find better deals than this on both Office 2016 and Office 365. For example, if you search Amazon for Microsoft Office, you’ll find (down from $150), one year of (down from $70), and one year of (down from $100). The seller will mail you a physical key card which provides a code you can enter to either download Office or activate an Office 365 subscription. These prices will likely fluctuate over time, but we usually see cheaper prices on Amazon than on Microsoft’s store.

In addition, you get in OneDrive and 60 minutes of Skype minutes every month. You can use these minutes to call phones from Skype.

The free web versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote don't have all the features of the Office 2016 applications, and there will be some complex documents that you can't open with them, but they have enough tools for everyday document creation and editing. PowerPoint Online recently added the format painter tool, for instance. Often, new tools show up in Office Online first, like the Tell Me search function that helps you find which features you can use for a specific task; that's now in Office 2016. The web version of is very similar to the Windows and iOS versions. The Office Online apps also save your documents automatically, so you won't lose everything you've typed if you lose your internet connection. Anyone with a Microsoft account can use Office Online, and the documents will be saved in OneDrive (you can sync them to your computer or download them individually).

For example, the Mac version can't import PDF files and create editable Office documents from the contents, but the Windows version can. However, PowerPoint for the Mac continues to outclass the Windows version in its Reorder Objects feature. On the Mac, you reorder objects by dragging them forward or back in an animated three-dimensional view, while in Windows you drag objects up and down in a less convenient list format. A few features have disappeared from the previous version. For example, the Publishing Layout option in Word that made Word act more like a page-layout app rather than a word processor is gone, as is the ability to rearrange the tab order on the Ribbon. Apple's Word competitor simply can't compete on power-user features like advanced typography and footnotes and endnotes. Likewise, trails Excel when it comes to advanced scientific and technical work., on the other hand, is better than PowerPoint in many ways.
