Buying and accessing productivity apps from Microsoft has become increasingly confusing over the years due to a myriad of different subscription levels and software suites. If you need Microsoft Office for school, work or play, we have a simple and extremely inexpensive solution. On our GameSpot Deals hub, you can get a lifetime license for Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2021 for just $50.
This offer is available for Windows and macOS editions of Microsoft Office. All you have to do is purchase the license, download Microsoft Office to your PC or laptop and enter your license. From there, you’ll have access to the 2021 version of Office forever. Considering that semi-annual Office updates rarely change what lot, you could definitely use the 2021 version for many years to come.
While the Professional Plus version of Microsoft Office rarely sells for its $350 retail price, you still save a significant amount of money by purchasing the suite this way. For example, Microsoft Office Home and Student 2021– which doesn’t come with as many apps – currently costs $125 on Amazon for a lifetime license. At the same time, an annual subscription for Microsoft 365 starts at $70.
Microsoft Office Professional Plus comes with so much more than the staples of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Here is the complete list of applications included with the Professional Plus version:
- Against
- Excel
- Power Point
- Perspectives
- Teams
- a note
- Editor
- To access
And hey, if you want to install Windows on your Steam Deck and use it for productivity – with the help of some great accessories, of course – you can theoretically add Microsoft Office to your Steam Deck for some spreadsheet fun. .
