Microsoft Office 2016 Professional Plus for Windows - ESD Version Digital Download (License Only)

I bought this to replace an Office 365 annual subscription I have been paying for the past few years. After the last expiry ( you get a few weeks grace period to renew ) I decided my use, mainly just a few Excel spreadsheets, didn’t justify the ongoing annual fee. I considered alternatives but admit to being a Microsoft Excel fan, the licence price was my only sticking point. Another reason for the Office 365 was that I now mainly use my tablet rather than laptop for my spreadsheets, included as part of the licence. Not sure when this changed but the free Excel for Ipad now allows you to edit. You need to reset your Microsoft login on the iPad app to prevent “Can’t edit, please renew “ messages. Probably reduced functionality but nothing impacting me so far. In the end I probably didn’t even need to buy this Office Pro license but I’m glad I did. If gives me the full functionality of the suite ( I’ll only ever use a fraction of it ) and gives me the comfort of still being able to do things I am used to on my laptop. Importantly with no ongoing fees.The installation of the Office Pro suite was as described in the instructions and having read other reviews expected to have to use the telephone activation (smartphone recommended) option. Not as tricky as anticipated but you do need to type in a lot of numbers carefully and correctly. Activated fine and more than happy with this at the price.There was only one minor issue and that is more likely to do with Microsoft than this licence. On my Windows 10 laptop the “My Office” app shows the office apps links as being part of my now expired Office 365. It’s defintely the full Office Pro apps installed when you check though and the links (eg. to load Excel) still work. As far as I am concerned this is a legal/valid licence purchased from a reputable (Amazon) supplier and didn’t see any reason to do anything other than continue to use my longstanding Microsoft account, unlike others I have seen that sell you a licence that dictates the user to register with.

I recently bought a new laptop and honestly don't really understand technology, I nearly paid £60 for the office 365 subscription (which only lasts one year). I like having Office on my Laptop/computer as oppose to a subscription but didn't think that you could anymore. My boyfriend did a bit of research and found this. I was a bit sceptical at first due to the price but needless to say I am very impressed. The seller sent me the key code to access it along with some clear instructions and it was all relatively simple.It all works perfectly at the moment but I will update this in several months if there are any issues.One thing I will say is make sure you buy it from the correct seller. I was concerned that the price was so cheap so looked at other people selling the same product and found other company's selling it for double to price (still very cheap). I would say avoid buying it from the German company (the cheapest one) as these seemed to have bad reviews and don't seem legit. I bought mine from Cairnquay and they were wonderful!

complete waste of time ...I followed everything to the letter then to be informed you have to pay for it to be authenticated by Microsoft !!!

They key worked for 3.5 months and then all of a sudden I was locked out of using any Microsoft. I have contacted the seller but haven't yet heard a response?

The licence activation of this software was blocked my Microsoft. Seller had simply said they will send ‘another soon’ without a date or offered a refund.

As many reviewers, I was sceptical at first, but code came through within hours and I now have a working copy of Office 2016.Hint: I installed onto brand new laptop that came with shortcut links to Office 2016 and with hindsight I should have deleted all references to Office 2016 on the laptop before downloading and installing the full version from the Microsoft website.This would have avoided some confusion that arose during activation.

Good product.I read the reviews as I was uncertain about the price of the product.The sellers sends you an email shortly after paying. I log onto the link and entered the codes. Site confirm the codes are correct..You receive the complete Microsoft office 2016 products. Takes about one-hour to complete the download process.If you are looking for a inexpensive full Microsoft office 2016 buy this product.

The cheapest and the best way of having office installed. I received the key and link to the installation vey fast and the installation was seamless. Will definitely recommend this to friends who do not want to go by the monthly office subscription.
