• More amazing prices on Office 365: 6 users/one year for $55; 1 user/1 year for $40

  Two weeks ago I told you about a great deal on Office 365 Home from Amazon. This is the Real Deal, not some fly-by-night stuff.

  Now it seems Microsoft has lowered the price once again, but you need to act quickly.

  As of right now, if you use these (affiliate) links, you can get the 6-person one year subscription to Home for just $54.99 (US only), or the 1-person one year subscription to Personal for just $39.99 (also US only).

  The only difference between Home and Personal is in the number of users.

  If you already have Office 365 Home, you can buy this item and use the key to extend your current subscription by one year. Just be sure you use the same Microsoft id to login to the new copy.

  Thx Paul Thurrott.

  Amazon — yes, Amazon — has an amazing price on Office 365 Home.

  As of this moment, it’s $59.99 for a one-year subscription to Office 365 Home, for up to 6 people. Make sure you choose the “Download” option.

  If you already have Office 365 Home, you can buy this item and use the key to extend your current subscription by one year. Just be sure you use the same Microsoft id to login to the new copy.

  Also make sure that the price hasn’t gone up since I posted this!

  Thx Office Watch.

  UPDATE: Preston Gralla has an article in Computerworld that explains why moving from the bought-n-paid-for version of Office 2019 to the annual-rent Office 365 may be a good idea.

  It used to be that whenever Microsoft released Office with a new version number — for example, Office 2016 — that version was more powerful than any other available. That’s no longer the case. Office 2019 is considerably less powerful than Office 365. There’s nothing new in Office 2019 that hasn’t already been available for quite some time to millions of Office 365 subscribers (the company says it has more than 31 million subscribers to consumer editions), and in fact, Microsoft left several features out of Office 2019 that it had introduced in Office 365 over the past few years.
