Three steps to the right Office licence

  • Perpetual licence or subscription. A perpetual licence if you want to pay once and use it for a long time. A subscription if you need cloud storage and coverage for multiple people. For most individual users, the perpetual licence is the cheaper option.
  • Which version. Office 2024 for new purchases, with updates until 2029. Office 2021 as a cheaper alternative when your budget is tighter.
  • Which edition. Home 2024 without Outlook, Home and Business with Outlook, Standard which also adds Publisher and OneNote, Professional Plus which also adds Access.
  • Mind the platform. Windows or Mac, the licences are platform-bound.
