Hi, just bought a new laptop and we decided to bite the bullet and pay for MS office, but so many choices now and many are subscription based.... Need your help!
4 family members, 2 in high school. I am the super user, but kids could make use of it too.
I definitely use Excel a LOT, including data pak addins That free Google version stinks and I won't go there again. Likewise I refuse to buy devices that won't run full Excel...it is my crutch through life.
I would like Access but can use it at work only if needed, and we all use Power point. Kids are OK with Prezi but that is a learning curve for me. Word does not have to be fancy, but great for essays and tagging in photos.
I qualify for the faculty pricing ( student) and we can like qualify for at least two student versions. But most of those are single user...
Chances are we would want to pull up something on our tablets.
Oh and we often use it when WiFi fails, so need to be able to work off line.
What version to buy?
