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

What you see is what you get - a disc containing OfficeSuite Home & Business 2023. Unfortunately, since its arrived, Ive found out that this software is free and available to anyone who wants it online minus the cloud storage and customer support, so you can either pay £72.99 or get the free product elsewhere. There are also some problems to report when trying to install. Im using a fully up to date computer that runs Microsoft Office on it and it wont install OfficeSuite without Microsoft Office being uninstalled for some reason. Well... I dont want to do that. I attempted to install this program alongside a family member who works with computers and is very knowledgeable about them - this is how I found out this software is free online. Edited to add: the seller contacted me in response to this review, informed me that it was incorrect and wanted me to provide proof that I couldnt get their software to run on my computer, to which I responded that I was not willing to go to such lengths and as a Vine reviewer, it is not my job to simply hand out 5 star shining reviews simply for receiving a free product. Clearly someone is unhappy they did not get that but an honest review of someones experience instead. All I can say is look at the other reviews from unhappy or dissatisfied customers. I think they speak for themselves.

This is going to be a short review as I failed to realise that the OfficeSuite Home and Business 2023 pack will only work on Windows machines and not Android and iOS. As a Mac user I didn’t expect it to work on Apple machines but it’s still a bit disappointing. Whereas the other versions of the software come with annual subscriptions, like MS Office, this at £73 at time of review, is a one-off purchase. As a result it costs a bit more and only 5Gb of cloud storage is available. This compares reasonably favourably with MS Office annual subscriptions. However, open source versions are available so you’re really paying for a relatively clean copy, some support, and the cloud storage. As a MS Office user I was hoping to offer comparisons between the software but can’t as it won’t run on any of my hardware. So a neutral 3 star review. Check you have Windows 10 or 11 if you want this iteration of the software!

Decent open source alternative to Microsoft Office but the software is free so your paying for cloud storage. If you don’t need the cloud storage then not convinced this is worth it.

I was looking forward to testing this software alongside my MS office for comparison but it will not install if office is installed. This is pretty poor software design; I am an IT engineer by trade and I have used other free open-source versions of office and had no problems running the two side by side. I am not going to go in to trying to fix the product to try and make it work, it simply isn’t worth my time to try and test it as flawed software, I shouldn’t have to debug to get it to work for testing. I cannot recommend it the software from what I can see the only difference between other free for life office software online and this product is the cloud storage and the support that is offered with this product, which at £72.99 is quite steep for support and for a small bit ‘cloud’ storage (which also relies on the company being around for “life” to continue working) I can’t comment on other features in the software that might unlock with this licence as it didn’t work. I won’t be recommending this to my commercial customers, but if you are a domestic user that has no other office installed then your mileage may vary.

Love the product!

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.
