OfficeSuite Home & Business 2023 - Lifetime License - Documents, Sheets, Slides, PDF, Mail & Calendar for Windows

This is a review of the installation process for this product and not the software itself, for reasons that will become apparent later. The first thing Id like to mention is that this is a bona fide product in so far as its an upgrade of the free version of this software. The free version contains around 50% fewer features than this paid version, including those driving cross-platform connectivity which many heavy users would make use of. So, its certainly not a rip-off in that regard. Its broadly similar in concept to most other free office platforms currently available, including MS Office. Secondly, this product does not contain a disc of any description. What you receive in the post is a square tri-fold card (shown in my photos) containing the download and installation instructions, along with the product key which you need to type in as part of the process. Obviously, Ive digitally airbrushed over most of the one on my card. The process itself is very easy and requires only three clicks. However, I encountered a problem during the download and decided to uninstall and then re-install the software on to the same laptop using the same IP address. Having done so, my premium licence disappeared into the ether and could no longer be used. Whilst my account appeared active, my upgraded package had been replaced by the free version and the activation key was no longer recognised. Id assume that if at some point in the future you changed your laptop and were hoping to re-install this onto it, youd end up disappointed. Theres no trouble shooting section on the makers website and I tried everything I could to make it work, to no avail. So, I contacted the support service. Crickets....... Its been seven days since I contacted them and Ive only had an automated response containing a link to the jobs ticket. This doesnt work. So, I cant review the software and the support service is seriously lacking. If I was using this in a commercial capacity, itd be no use at all if I couldnt get timely support. I cant recommend this. It clearly has some bugs in the software, the websites help section is of no use if you have technical problems and the aftercare is, in my case, non-existent.

I guess it’s always going to be the one that everyone wants to know, and that’s how well does this stack up agains MS Office that everyone knows? Well, after a few weeks of use and getting me head around the differences I can say it’s a competent software suite, and although it does 99% of the things I need I’m unfortunately too accustomed to using MS Office and making the change to something different (even if only slightly) is too much. It’s a good alternative for home use if you don’t want to have an Office365 subscription but there are “free” offerings on the market which might be a better option. I don’t want to seem too negative as it’s a good piece of software just not able to replace what I’ve already got.

The fact that a lot of the features for these products are available for free, i dont think its worth the extra money for what you get in addition. The plus point is that this is a lifetime subscription, unlike Microsoft Office which is usually for a finite time. I didnt have any issue installing this package.

Had trouble getting it to run when first installed. Tech support could not seem to help. Friend said to uninstall Microsoft Office, which came with the computer, and then it worked.

I have been using Chromebooks for years now and tried a Windows system I couldnt use it just headaches for me. Hubs has a new laptop he has this on now and honestly even I can use it! It has really help him be way more organised. Very good interface, easy to get around and get used to. It is user friendly and well thought out. Lots of different options to keep you organised, tidy & on track.

Not a true MS O.S.

If it really is for lifetime then it is good , gives basic functions which is good as I really dont use all the functions on office and I feel I am wasting money. I am glad to cancel the monthly subscription.

OfficeSuite Home and Business Lifetime License. This 5 in 1 package gives you lifetime usage of the OfficeSuite software that contains a document writer, spreadsheet, presentations, mail and pdf functions. Its an affordable alternative to Microsoft Office and I personally like the fact OfficeSuite sell this as a one off lifetime rather than a subscription model. This software isnt compatible with macOS however it works perfectly on my Windows 11 PC. Installation was quick and straightforward, I linked it to my Google account which didnt take long at all. OfficeSuite provide a folded CD case shaped cardboard pamphlet (No CD provided, product needs to be downloaded) which contains the software activation key. The key was easy to read and my activation went through without issue. Functionality wise the software isnt bad at all, its simple and straightforward to use and has a lot of similarities to Microsoft Office. OfficeSuite provided 5GB of Cloud Storage with this package which is handy if youre running it on multiple devices. Overall I have to say its a really useful package of office software at a competitive price. It has plenty of features and its worked fine for me without any issues.

Its ok, dont expect all the same features as office, as its not that. It works ok for basic functions. I like that its a lifetime license rather then a subscription. It is very pricey for what it is.

I tried the OfficeSuite Home & Business 2023 recently. Im impressed with its features and functionality. This software provides me with all the necessary tools for my work, including documents, sheets, slides, PDFs, mail and calendar, all in one place. The user interface is easy to navigate, allowing me to get started without any hassle. The software is highly customizable, and I can easily adjust the settings to suit my needs. The collaboration tools are outstanding, allowing me to work with my colleagues and clients from anywhere in the world. The software is compatible with all the popular file formats, including doc and docx, making it easy for me to switch between applications. The lifetime license means that I dont have to worry about renewing my subscription every year either! The price is highly affordable compared to other similar software on the market. Overall, Im extremely satisfied and I would recommend.
