 OK - If you can get into the packaging! November 21, 2008
Malcolm Newton (UK)
I've been in IT for over 30 years, many of them using MS products. I have an IQ of around 140. It took me five minutes to get into the stupid, fiddly plastic packaging. Absolutely appalling design - unless it was designed as a MENSA puzzle!
Then I tried to activate the full key having been using a 60 day free trial key. That in itself is an adventure. The instructions provided were useless. The instructions on the internet were useless but I got there in the end.
The product itself is fine and great value but they don't half make you work for it. 0/10 for packaging, 0/10 for activation instructions, 8/10 for the product.
 There's no point fixing something that ain't broken! November 7, 2008

I don't enjoy using Office 2007. Millions of people around the world got use to the original Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, Excel etc. and then they decided to change the layout of everything.
After a while, you end up getting use to it and I quite like the way you switch from one tab to the next on Word. In other words, I quite like the way you switch from "file, edit, view... (although it's now called Home, Insert, Page layout...)".
There are little things though, which are really annoying. First, I don't like the fact that there are no permanent margins around the page on Word - it makes it harder to quickly adjust the layout of headings etc.
I can't stand the way it automatically double spaces, every time you press enter. Sometimes you don't want it to do that - it is difficult to change this.
Finally, I don't like the way it saves every file in the .docx format. You can change this to .doc and it will save all your work fine - so why bother even introducing .docx in the first place? It just means that if you forget to change the format to .doc when you save documents at work/university - you can't open the file at home unless you have already purchased Office 2007 on your PC at home.
 It Wasn't Broken - It Is Now! November 2, 2008

If you have Office 2003 (unlike me!) then avoid upgrading to this this ridiculous product. It provides nothing that you couldn't do, often more easily, with the old menus and toolbars of Office 2003.
On offer is the prominent "ribbon" interface that provides quick access to many features that in all reality will be fairly redundant for many users. In Word, any takers for Styles, Symbols, Themes, Citations & Bibliography, Captions, Table of Authorities? Thought not!
Conversely, many commonly used features are less accessible than before.
However, many of the old dialogue boxes are still lurking beneath the surface, which just goes to show that ugliness too can be only skin deep.
Think twice before buying this product it is a con!!! November 1, 2008

Think twice before buying this product. I bought a new laptop that had office 2007 etc loaded as a trial. I bought Office Home Student 2007 as a Amazon special offer along with the laptop. Office Home Student 2007 does NOT include Outlook 2007 so the 60d trial runs out and the only way you can get Outllok 2007 is to pay a further 78.78 for Outlook from Microsoft. After the 60 days you just cannot get any more e-mail without buying the product unless you revert back to an alternative e-mail programme.- Why buy the office suite without Outlook?? It is not made clear when you buy Home & Student 2007 with Amazon.
Overall 0/10 Amazon & Microsoft - A true con.
 Happy customer November 1, 2008

I'm not big user of office and mainly use it for typing letters and reading documents from work. However compared to office 2003 i find it more user friendly and visually looks a lot better. It does the job and am happy which is why 5/5 -
I don't understand why the low marks that outlook 2007 is not included when if you have windows vista it comes built in windows mail ( which is same as outlook express ) and far better email client then outlook 2007.
Before buying from amazon i search the web to see if i could find better price and by far amazon is lowest by at least 20-30pounds. Super-save delivery took about 4days -
Also had registry issues due to previous office causing problems after uninstall. Microsoft technical support was first class and resolved the issue within minutes.
