Microsoft Office Home & Business 2021 | One-time purchase for 1 PC or Mac | Download

Hate spending the cash, but the download worked flawlessly, and the wife is happy being able to work from home!

I wasn’t sure where it was. A message would be appreciated.

Loaded fine. Works well.

I had concerns about whether this was a legitimate license, whether amazon is authorized to sell microsoft products, and whether one-time-install software can be transferred to a new pc.

Short answers: yes, it is. Yes, they are. Yes, it can.

I had a chat session with microsoft first and pointed them to this page. I told the agent there was general confusion about whether the software could be transferred to a new pc. The agent responded “office 2021 home and business is a digital perpetual license which means it’s a one time purchase. You can use this license on single device at a time.”

that wasn’t quite the answer i was looking for, so i asked “if my pc dies and i buy a new one, can i transfer this digital perpetual license to a new pc?” the agent responded “yes, you can.”

i then had a chat session with amazon and asked the agent if amazon is a licensed reseller of microsoft products. The agent responded “yes, we are the licensed reseller of the microsoft”

i then asked if this particular product was being sold by amazon or a third party seller. The agent responded “it is sold by amazon.com services llc”

with that i went ahead with the purchase and was happy to see that the download button took me to a microsoft page and automatically carried the product key with it. Once i signed in to microsoft, i was able to download it, it installed, and everything works.

Have used office for a long time. I prefer this desktop version as opposed to the ongoing cost of microsoft 365. My favorite thing was buying this through amazon which makes the process really easy!

Downloaded and installed with no issues. Don’t fall for the cheaper prices. Get the real deal here.

If you need outlook this is the version to get! How can you go wrong with amazon & microsoft combination! Downloaded fast and without any issues. I would stay away from non brand products!

Set up in less than 5 minutes, super easy!

After i purchage, may be 1 minute,-.-. I got a email about a link to go to microsoft app.
Just make a account microsoft same the email i get the link (email use in for amazon buying, i just have 1 for everything so it easy).

And the software is already in my account. Just log in, the software with the “intall” buton in middle the screen. So easy.

I need 1 minute for get the email and 10-20 mins for intall.

Thanks.

Followed a link from the email, added product to microsoft proile. Activation is a breeze.

Amazon sent the key within an hour and was able to download with no problems that day. Only issue was with outlook. When setting up it asked for password, but it would not take my yahoo password. Googled issues and found out i needed to sign into yahoo to get a password specifically for outlook then it finally allowed access and loaded on my laptop. Feel like microsoft could give better directions for this part. I have a brand new hp with windows 11 had no issues getting it loaded but have not had a chance to work within the documents yet. With all the bad reviews i was nervous buying it from amazon and also for my windows 11 but no issues so far.

This is a necessary update since google will block the older versions for inadequate security.

Some people have written they had trouble with the install of office. I had no issues and it is working properly. This version included skype but i was able to download its future replacement, teams for free. I was very confused by all the ms office 365 options so the one time purchase was best for me.

Just released from microsoft. There was nothing in the system requirements when i placed the order that said office 2021 required windows 10 or 11. I found out after the fact. It will not load on windows 7.

This is the genuine microsoft office home and business. Download and installation was a breeze. Everything working well so far, have not used powerpoint or publisher yet.

Still learning the program, but so far it seems good

I ordered this directly from microsoft. It cost more, but i was concerned about portability if i change computers. This does not work with windows 7, so i installed it on my windows 11 machine. Caution! The outlook included is outlook 365 which uses microsoft exchange. I really did not want that so i only use the other products. Save your money and get the personal edition without outlook 365.

I downloaded and installed the software without problems to a new pc that had an unactivated office 365 pre-installed.

It’s unfortunate that microsoft hadn’t assisted those who have reported problems because it creates doubt where none seems (to me) necessary.

Also, why doesn’t microsoft take action against those selling ms office 2021 pro at incredibly reduced prices? It took me significant effort and time to figure out these are enterprise licenses and users could find that it suddenly stops working. That’s unfair to the public given microsoft’s apparent inaction.

For these reasons, i knocked off one star.

I’ve been using office for about 20 years. It is what it is.

I don’t like that outlook just doesn’t seem to work as well as it used to. Sometimes search function works, sometimes you can’t put a space between words in the search bar.

Excel, word, and ppt are just fine.

Would recommend… Not that there is much of an alternative.
