Nice presentation style, and content. For my home purposes though I'm still using Office 2007. It's paid for, and does everything I need. I know newer versions have evolved, but honestly I think the average user would be perfectly happy with Office 97. Most people just don't need anything beyond the basics. I'll probably use what I have until the day comes where it won't install on whatever version of Windows we are up to at that point, and then I'll probably just use Libre office. I have nothing against MS making money, but I'm happy with what I have. The rest is just fluff.

This is awesome that you are sharing this because I see a lot of people wanting to use the office suite or even excited to try it out for free and this allows so many people that opportunity. Plus once they see the power of these applications and have the ability to purchase the entire suite it is a game changer for productivity. Thanks for sharing this Kevin :)

This was NOT clickbait. It was very useful for me, so THANK YOU, Kevin. I upgraded from iPad Mini 2 to iPad 8th gen, and as expected, I could no longer edit Excel sheets using the Excel app, as I don't have an Office 365 subscription. It was possible on the iPad Mini 2, because MS allows it for devices with screens less than 10.1 in. Anyway, I was already looking for alternatives that could edit my Excel files and sync to OneDrive (couldn't find one), but thanks to this video, I discovered Office web apps! Hurray 🙂 They work great for my needs.

In the earlier release of MS Office Suite (software delivered on 3.25" disketts) of the mid-90s, it was possible to merge separate documents (say a financial report) from Word, Excel, etc. into a single document having a continuous pagination (including alpha numeric where need be) of the combined document irrespective of the pagination of the originating individual Office components. Such merging function does not seem to be available in recent releases of Office. How does one get such a merging function in say Office 16 or 19?

Hi Kevin - I am really enjoying your KZfaq tutorials so thank you very much for them. Your presentation skills are excellant! In this particular presentation, there are a couple of question in that, I am having a little difficulty wrapping my head around 1. I have Microsoft Office 10 already loaded on to my laptop - If I download the app for Office 365 or use the online version of it - will it be a problem for me to still use my own program of Office 10? 2. I suppose I will not be able to use Office 365 offline if on the rare occasion I my internet is not working? Is that right? 3. Finally - say something changes in the future and for some reason one is no longer able to access the online version of Office 365 or the app - will the documents we have created through Office 365 become unusable - lost forever? Or can one open them in Office 10? Thanks

Office 365 Home is the best option and it is very cheap like you said. Me and 5 other friends have it but it is a lot cheaper than what you mentioned. The monthly price is 7.99 so for one year it is 95.88. But we always pay for one year and they offer a 16% discount if we pay it upfront. So it comes at $80.53. So it's just $13.42 per person per year. And like you said for the services, features it offers it is a bargain!!! I've even cancelled my $35.88 Google Drive 200GB plan in favour of Office 365 as they offer 1TB. Killer deal!!
