Microsoft Office Home & Business 2013 - Download - 1 PC
 
Good version but ugly color schemes
- Pros: Nice new features, integration w/ skydrive for stand-alone systems.
Outlook has a new option where it will only keep a specified amount of emails in the OST for a certain period of time, then keep headers only to cut down on OST sizes in exchange environments to improve performance which is helpful. - Cons: The color schemes are pretty ugly, hopefully the office team introduces more color schemes with a service pack.
It's definitely a step backwards as far as a polished look and feel.
- Other Thoughts: Aside from if it looks pretty or not, there is no reason to avoid using this version of office over 2010, however there's no compelling reason to upgrade either unless you have a large exchange mailbox.

Microsoft Office Home & Student 2013 - Download - 1 PC
Beat with an ugly stick
- Pros: Excel has some new features that may prove useful
- Cons: The interface looks like it was beat with an ugly stick. Default theme was an unreadable white on white. Thmes are now independent of windows and must be set in each application. Default security settings ensured that i had to make a repeat visit to an already irritated client to set each applications security settings to low just so email attached .doc*and xls* files would open. Opening the company Access database for the first time injected an add on which broke the application for users with previous version until i remoted in to fix it. My customer has been irritated since i installed this product and i've had to eat at least 2 hours because i "recommended" it (because i can no longer find 2010 for sale, a thundering "recommendation" for sure). Oh yeah, and it blue screened the computer when I installed it. Awesome product, exactly what i've come to expect from Redmond.
- Other Thoughts: At least no one was physically injured.

Microsoft Office Professional 2013 - Download
No problems - Outlook 2013 is awesome!
- Pros: I purchased the Ofc2013 home and student for my home PC and Ofc2013 Pro for work. No problems, runs great! Outlook in the pro is very slick - I love the conversation mode for emails - a huge time saver.
- Cons: Not really a con - more of any annoyance. The installation will "stream" to your computer and install quickly. There is no way (that I know of) to download and ISO to create backup media. If you need to reinstall, you will have to log in via your MC account and re-download. I recommend making a system image immediately after installing.
- Other Thoughts: Newegg will provide you with a download link (actually both and activation and download link). Make sure you have a microsoft account ready (hotmail, live, outlook.com, etc.) I also recommend you click on the link via the target computer for installation. Once you click on the link and sign in via your microsoft account - the license code is tied to your account and will immediately begin to install.

DO NOT BUY
- Pros: None
- Cons: Cannot activate. On the phone two hours last Friday and got a call back from level two support today with no resolution. Three hours on the phone and a supervisor suggested I get a refund and purchase again. Newegg says I have to resolve it with Microsoft as they are just a reseller.
- Other Thoughts: Only purchase if you can have a disk mailed to you.

College Students check this out....
- Pros: See other comments
- Cons: For student still crazy price.
- Other Thoughts: Heads up for students in case you already didnt know, DO NOT SHELL OUT THE CASH TO BUY THIS. Most major universities (if you attend a community college they probably do too just check) have a deal with Microsoft and other companies to offer their students various software for FREE or at HUGE DISCOUNTS. I never paid for office while I was in school and to upgrade to windows 7 it was $25 for 64 bit pro edition. I was able to get adobe creative suite for around $635.00. There was a bunch of different programs I could download for free as well if I wanted or needed it. Check with your tech store on campus, IT website, search for it on the schools 'current student' page, etc. Your academic advisor will probably know if they do or not as well if you're having issues finding it.
