How we got apps like Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint without a subscription
Software subscriptions may seem cheap at first, but those little payments add up fast, especially if it’s for apps you’ll always need. That just means you’re renting your productivity when you used to be able to buy it outright.
Instead of paying every month for Microsoft 365, try a solution that’s easier on the wallet without needing to learn to use new apps. Microsoft Office 2019 may have a few years on it, but the apps included in this productivity suite are still great for work, school and more. Bonus: you can get a Microsoft Office 2019 for Windows or Mac for only $24.97 (reg. $229), and that’s a one-time payment for apps you’ll own for life.
What’s included?
The Microsoft license comes with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, Publisher and Access. The Mac license comes with most of the same apps, but it replaces Publisher and Access with Teams Classic.
If you’re used to the Microsoft 365 version of these apps, they might look a little different. Don’t worry. They still work great, whether you’re writing up a resume, organizing a huge data pool or making a slideshow for work.
Each license lets you install the full software suite on one computer one time, so don’t load them up on a computer you’re going to replace next week. Once they’re installed, you’re good to go with no recurring payments or hidden fees of any kind.
