    IF you have time to learn a totally new software…..
    you might like this. I don’t have that luxury. I need to be able to open the software, do what I want to do, and move on.

  2. Microsoft’s Office Standard 2007 is the version that includes the programs most people will be looking for in an office suite: Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Outlook. While Microsoft did make some improvements, many changes have users frustrated and mad.

    Pros

    + Standard version includes the 4 programs you actually want!
    + Like most new MS suites, allows for easier transfer between machines
    + Allows you to use on your home desktop AND your laptop!! Huge plus!!
    + New open document format based on xml – good for techies
    + Alternatively, you can still use the doc format you know and love
    + Excel now supports larger documents with more fields!
    + Cool new Powerpoint extras
    + Once you do overcome the learning curve, design has some plusse
    + Preloaded with Vista OEM computers, so install is MUCH faster than old version

    Cons

    - A list price of $400 means many will forgo Outlook and buy Home & Student suite for MUCH LESS
    - The ribbon puts things in WEIRD places
    - Microsoft disabled classic menus so you can’t find stuff … ARGH!!!
    - Startup times seem a little slower … why????
    - Strangely slow performance with Word

    The general hatred for the ribbon is well known. Microsoft Word and Excel have drawn the most heat. It took everybody years to learn those nested menus and hard to find functions. Now they are all moved!!!!

    Actually, the ribbon wouldn’t be so bad if you could have your regular old classic menus above it. Once you learn the ribbon, there’s some logic to the way things have been relocated. Still, this was a huge blunder and I wonder if MS will back track on that.

    This guy also includes Outlook, which is a MUST for me since I have to use Outlook on my work PC. I tried using the exported files in the new vista calendar apps, and none of them really worked that well. The professional Microsoft Office Professional 2007 FULL VERSION and ultimate Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007 FULL VERSION [DVD] suite versions also include outlook.

    Yet why the list price of $400? The Home and Student Office 2007 suite Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 is $150 and includes everything here except for Outlook. Is Outlook worth $250 now? To be fair, there are cheaper upgrade versions. Still, I may be switching to a new email / calendar / productivity program all-together.

    The new XML doc format is Microsoft’s way of getting away from the proprietary .doc format. This will aggravate some people too, but you can just save everything in the 2003 format. I like the new format and I think it will catch on with time.

    Despite the short comings, once you get past the learning curve the programs themselves are improved.

    Enjoy!!!

    MS Office 2007
    Product was delivered just as you would find it brand new at a retailer. Delivery was sooner than expected and was packaged with care. Completely satisfied.

    Could have been more honest
    Mine absolutely was NOT the full product. It was just an upgrade version, and I was lucky to at least have had an expired student version of Word 2003.

    Microsoft 2007
    When I tried to install the Microsoft 2007 software, it would not install. I called Microsoft and they told me that since I apparently did not have a validation ID included in…

    Illegal Software
    When I recived this software I immediately became suspicious because the disk did not contain any holographs or other security items.

  7. The product requires activation, which includes sending machine identification information to Microsoft.

    The good news is that the Office Standard license allows installation on both a desktop system and a laptop. It also allows you to transfer the license to new systems, over time.

    From the license: “Before you use the software under a license, you must assign that license to one device. … You may install another copy on a portable device for use by the single primary user of the licensed device. … You may reassign the license to a different device any number of times, but not more than one time every 90 days.”

    Take the time to learn this new software!
    I love the new 2007 of Excel, Word, and Outlook. At first I hated it and said many of the same things the other user reviews said.

  11. I would like to know which genius came up with this little gem. This must be the worst “update” of a software in history.

    As I was forced to buy a new computer, I was “blessed” with this malady of a software.

    Despite the appealing first impression – the new Office presents itself with a modern and colorful layout, the debilitating flaws become all too quickly obvious once one starts to work with it.

    The new feature, the Ribbon, is one of those things that look good only on paper. (like those state-of-the-art kitchen which are designed by very smart men, designers, engineers… but alas no cooks…) If you, like me, are one of those frequent users who work with the software on a daily basis, are very familiar with all its features and value the option of customizing your settings and toolbars in order to streamline (=timesaving) your individual processes, you are in for a major disappointment. The Ribbon is static – no customizing. Microsoft allegedly surveyed thousands of users and put the most popular features in so-called groups on this Ribbon. Great, if you are one of those surveyed users – a nightmare, if you were taking full advantage of individualizing (=streamlining) features. It is sort of like having a closet full of nice clothes, and then a survey shows that “gray goes with everything” and we are all stuck with the same gray clothes.

    Instead of doing my work, I spent hours searching for features that are now hidden, moved, or simply do not exist anymore. I have been cursing at my screen, for hours. And I am getting more and more irritated as I am looking at my work which wants to be done.

    Now, don’t get me wrong, I am all for innovation, but not for innovation’s sake. And I don’t mind at all learning new things, if they prove to, in fact, improve things. And nope, there was not one “new thing” that made me say “ah, now that’s a great improvement.”

    Sorry, Microsoft, but simply moving things around, throwing features out and making everything more uniform (=static) does not count as innovation in my book.

    not what i expected… but it’s Good.
    it is MS Office 2007 full version, but some kind of “special edition” which i think is the reason why i got it in lesser price.
    but it is what it is.

    Not User Friendly, But What Else is New…
    I upgraded to MS Office 2007 because I am a computer hardware and software junkie. Besides that, I like the challenge of solving problems.
