Since i got booted out of corporate america about seven years ago i've been paying whatever a year for 365.

I rarely use excel anymore but it is nice to have sometimes when communicating with my wife (still employed) and a few other reasons.

Word can be replaced with my email email.

Don't use power point at all anymore.

I hate the gmail UI, outlook is much preferred.

There are some free ones out there i see, have yall had experience with any of them?

I just buy the home and student edition rather than screw with the 365 subscription. It lasts me several years so it saves a lot of money over 365 for the same period of time.

The free online version of excel, word and outlook on one drive does like 90% of what I need I've found. Anything beyond that and I should be on the clock. (At work)

There are a number of on-line sellers that sell keys. The older the version of software the cheaper the key.

Bought Office Pro 2021 for $25
