Does OL2013 play nicely with Office 2007, or do I need the whole suite?

Folks,

The title says it all – I need to upgrade Outlook from 2007 because I need two Exchange accounts. Advice in the past has been to avoid mixing office versions like the plague, but in this modern age would Outlook 2013 play nicely with the rest of the Office 2007 suite, or should I really upgrade the whole kit and caboodle?

Thanks
Stuart

I was able to run Office 2010 at the same time as Office 2013, even with two versions of Outlook running. This was done, however, with the office version obtained through the web, which I believe uses MS virtualization technology.

This said, I would probably replace the whole package. I am using Office 2013 and I like it a lot.

Thanks. I’ll look at pricing.

Depending on how often you upgrade Office and how many devices you have that run Office you may want to consider Office 365 Home Premium. Note: the link is for the US.
