Microsoft Office 365 is a free product that is launched by the Microsoft Corporation. There are many ways to get download it, but we are providing the most safe way to get it because we will provide the 100% working IDM direct link to get it.

In a world where you can get high-quality offline and cloud-based office suites for free, Microsoft Office may look increasingly quaint and expensive. So far, the company's answer has been to bind their suite and their cloud storage together, at bargain prices. But is it enough to overcome the competition's lack of a price tag?

Pros

You'll always have the latest version of Office: You may prefer to own your office suite instead of subscribing to it, but one of the advantages of Office 365 is that you'll automatically get security patches, new features, and whole new versions of Office, as soon as they're available. You can even sign up for the 'Insider' program to get beta access to what's coming next, if you can't wait. Out-of-date software is often how malware gets onto your device, so automatic updates go a long way toward protecting the average user.

If you've become accustomed to web browser-based productivity like the Google Docs Suite, then you already don't have to worry about features or versions. But it's definitely a factor if you're working with sensitive material that needs to stay off the cloud.

And if you need to put such materials online, OneDrive (the company's cloud storage service integrated into Office) has built-in tools to password-protect individual files and to create shareable links to them that expire after a specified amount of time. Plus, if something happens to these files on OneDrive, the service keeps 30 days of backups that you can select from to restore lost or corrupted data.

Works well both online and offline: Microsoft's main competitor is arguably Google Docs, but using Docs offline is awkward. You first have to get online to set it to offline mode, so if you want to work offline because you're having trouble connecting, you might be out of luck altogether. Office 365 works with your local files right away, while still syncing them in the cloud.

Setting up files for sharing is also straightforward. There's a Share button in the top right, and you click on it to create a OneDrive folder on your PC, where you can drop files that will automatically get synced in the cloud. If you're sharing the file with someone who's also using Office 365, this setup can let you both edit the file's contents in real time.

Cons

Tablet restrictions don't serve the user: There are two major differences between 365 Home and 365 Personal. For one, Home gets you 5TB of OneDrive cloud storage, while Personal gets 1TB. The other is the devices that you're allowed to use with the account. Personal gets you an 'Optimized Office experience on 1 tablet and 1 phone,' while Home provides an 'Optimized Office experience on 5 tablets and 5 phones.'

This means that 365 Personal subscribers must choose between a Surface, an iPad, or an Android tablet, and a family of four using 365 Home won't have very much wiggle room either. For reference, Microsoft sold about 3 million Surfaces in all of 2017, according to IDC. Apple sold 43.7 million iPads. So if users are forced to choose, it appears that Microsoft would statistically lose at its own game.

The price difference of $20 a year between 365 Personal and 365 Home works out to just $1.67 more a month, but the principal of it leaves a sour taste in the mouth. That's because you can get Google Docs or LibreOffice on whatever compatible devices you have available, without ever opening your wallet or even downloading anything other than a web browser. Office 365 is about a 4GB download, which can take time (though you can access a streamlined web browser version of Office via office.com), and you have to fork over your payment info for the trial.

Full

Be aware that the free trial defaults to a $99 charge at the end: If you sign up for the free trial of Office 365, it will give you the Home version that has a 5-user license and an MSRP of $100 a year. There's no option to do a trial for the less expensive Personal version. After the trial's 30 days have elapsed, you'll automatically be charged this amount unless you go through the cancellation process first. If you don't need a multi-user license, Microsoft is currently running a promotion for Office 365 Personal at $60 a year, which is a pretty substantial difference.

Bottom Line

OneDrive's terabytes of storage are actually a good value in their own right, and that's before you factor in the Office 365 subscription. But if you already have cloud storage elsewhere, and you're happy with it, the value proposition gets murkier; in that case, most people are probably better off with Google Docs, or LibreOffice if you want to work strictly offline.

What do you need to know about free software?

Office for home Some Office for home products come with a product key. If yours did, before installing Office for the first time, sign in with an existing or new Microsoft account and enter your product key* at office.com/setup. Redeeming your key is what links your account with Office so you only have to do this once. Already did this? Go to Step 1.

Office for business If your Office for business subscription plan includes the desktop version of the Office apps you won't see an option to install it unless someone in your organization assigned a license to you. Learn how to check this in What Office 365 business product or license do I have? or if you're an Office 365 admin, see Assign licenses to users.

Note: *Some versions of Office such as Office Professional Plus 2019, Office Standard 2019, or a stand-alone app such as Word 2019 or Project 2019 don't have an associated account. The steps to install these versions can be different depending if you got Office through one of the following ways:
Microsoft HUP: You bought Office for personal use through your company and have a product key, see Install Office through HUP.
Volume license versions: IT departments might use a different method to install Office for people in their organization. Talk to your IT department for install help.
Third-party seller: You bought Office from a third-party and you're having problems with the product key.

Before you begin, make sure your PC or Mac meets the system requirements.

Account questions:

I don't have a Microsoft account yet, or I forgot my username or password

Before you can install Office 365 or Office 2019 you need to associate it with a Microsoft account, or work or school account.

If you have an Office for home product and bought Office at a retail store or online store, but don't have a Microsoft account, it's possible you haven't redeemed your product key yet (if you got one), or you missed the step for linking your recent purchase with an account. Do the following to link an account with Office.

For an Office for home product, go to office.com/setup and create a new Microsoft account or sign in with an existing one, then follow the remaining steps on that page such as entering your product key (if you have one). Your account is successfully associated with Office when you see the page, My Office Account followed by your Microsoft account email address, and a button to install Office. Select the PC or Mac tabs above to help you with the rest of the install process.
