When you first order they send you a PDF file with your License Key and a link to a Microsoft site to download it and also a link to a Microsoft Tool which will automatically remove Office 2011 prior to installation of Office 2016. There will be a 2019 version and we have made a note on your order that you opted to get the free upgrade instead of coupon. As Microsoft partner, we get availability information before it becomes public knowledge. We will send you the 2019 version when it becomes available. Mac Office 2011 is also no longer supported by Microsoft and using it makes your computer vulnerable to malware and viruses that target outdated software. It works better and is much faster as well. Almost nobody goes back to 2011 after seeing the improvements in 2016. You can always put back the 2011 if you do not like for any reason. It is a retail license that belongs to you and can be used whenever you deem fit.Ģ016 version is far better than 2011.

Also since I have had some experience with promotional programs from places like bitsdujour where you get programs directly from the publisher but must install and activate them in some time period like 30 days, I emailed this primeosr entity and asked them about that, and their support responded very quickly with this message: They sent me a Product Key immediately and instructions to download it from Microsoft with a URL of. It is my understanding that both Office 2016 Home and Business for Mac and the upcoming Office 2019 Home and Business for Mac are 64 bit. I live in Excel and Word, the online apps do 90 percent of what I need, only missing the VBA environment and links to Access in some of my documents. The free suite associated with my personal account appears identical since I opted in for the new features. MS's offers their main 3 apps at no cost on the web, I'm using it in concert with Windows Office 2016 for documents that don't have macros/VBA and have had zero issues, exchanged via OneDrive. These updates are reflected in the web-based Office suite (which IMO doesn't suck anymore) and the Word applet is pretty much the same as the Office 2019 Word desktop app. I've been testing 2019 and only Word has evolved to this point, while the other apps should be updated in the next 45-60 days.

Also, don't buy Office 2016 - 2019 is already in testing in the Business Channel and it might see deployment in 2-3 months, and there's no upgrade path, full prices only. First, the Home & Office is a nice option but I've been told that it may not carry over to the next perpetual version, OTOH, MS has lowered the price of some of their Office products namely dropping the price of O365 Home by $20 a couple of weeks ago. OP, a couple more bits here before heading out the door.
