Glad I was able to find a version of Office that I am familiar with. And for which I don't have to pay an annual subscription fee. Only downside is that this older version of Office does not come with Outlook, so I continue to use Windows 10 mail, which does not integrate as well.

Office 2013 process was extremely easy. I received my cd key in the mail. I had a little difficulty in the beginning, and contacted the seller via e-mail. The seller was extremely helpful, and the directions were straight forward. I went to Office's website, linked the cd key with my Office account (I already had when I opened my e-mail account through Hotmail), and I downloaded the Office suite. Install was automatic, and was installing as the download progressed. The download was fast, but I have pretty good internet connection. The price for the product I received was extremely good for those on a serious budget, like a college students' budget. It is a full version upgrade, so if you have an older Office product, users should feel confident when operating in Office.

I didn't know Microsoft only sells medialess copies of their software in the US. That affected my buying decision. I thought the software could still be acquired with a disc. It can’t in the US, only in developing nations. The method of US distribution Microsoft uses is PKC, or Product-Key-Containing. It's a box with a Product Key inside. You have to download the software directly from Microsoft. I was allowed to download an .ISO, burn it to a backup disc, and install it from the optical drive. One problem with installing the software was a previous version of Microsoft Office, Starter 2010 was installed and I didn't uninstall it prior to installing Office 2013. The Office 2013 purchase isn't an upgrade, this is a full install. It contains 32-bit and 64-bit editions. The box shows the features and limitations of purchasing this software license, such as no future support for upgrades. Microsoft has plans you can pay for to increase your license. This software works pretty slick in Windows 7. I bet on a fresh system install this will be a seamless install. The functionality of the program is bar-none better than 2010. My technical college is using this version, and so I upgraded. I wouldn't have known how much friendlier and more stable the 2013 version is. I really like the background images on the Windows. True Window Dressing. When did Microsoft become so solid with their software they could focus on beautifying it? It's truly becoming a new type of Windows. Get on board with the newest office for better performance and a more intuitive experience. The new Word operates "smoother" is all I can say. Word adapts to your mistakes automatically, it just feels firmer and sturdier. Here I thought Windows was going 2D. I thought the screens in Windows 8 looked like paper. But the performance and stability of their software won me over. It even fixes itself. That installation problem resolved itself and explained how to avoid it in the future. What? Wait until Microsoft is driving our cars. That will be something, won't it?Read full review
Works fine for resumes and other documents. I think $50.00 would have been a more suitable price for an older version of Home. But I needed it and didn't want to look any more.
