What Version of Microsoft Office Do You Use?

Microsoft makes a version of Kingsoft Office

 

I can't make a vote for this poll.

In the past, I've used Office 2007 and 2010 and I liked them better than the older versions. I find it easier to use the Ribbon interface (I know many here don't like it but this is personal choice and don't wish to go into arguments/debate over it). However, I don't wish to install MS Office just for that.

At the moment, I have none installed seeing that my needs for an office suite is minimal. Nowadays, if I (or my family members) need to use an office suite, we tend to use online services such as Office Web Apps and Google Docs.

P.S. I still haven't quite 'decide' on whether to get an offline office suite and IF I do - which offline office suite to use. IF I do, I would prefer 'slimmer' packages such as the ones in Kingsoft, SoftMaker FreeOffice, etc. However, I also prefer one that supports opening (and saving into) OpenXML format. LibreOffice does that when compared to other freeware offerings. It also has the advantage of being open-source and actively updated/worked upon. Tough decision...

 

Office 2007

 

I tried 2007 but I really disliked it so I used MSO 2002 XP until recently when I bought 2010 which is quite solid.

 

I use Office 2010 and will upgrade to 2013 when it comes out.

Office 2000...I think 11-12 years.

 

.....I have to add this: 32 bits only

 

And let me guess... The installation is 1/10th of office 2010. That's what I love about older MSO.

 

This week, I figured out how to get a free copy of the most complete version of Microsoft Office 2010 - thanks to an agreement or alliance of some sort between my university and Microsoft.

I'm now a happy user of Microsoft Office 2010 Professional Plus. And, I have to say: this software package is, by a wide margin, superior/better than every other office suite or office app (text editor, presentation app, spreadsheets app, etc) in every area - including performance in most cases. Anyone who says otherwise is fooling himself.

Now, I plan to try Microsoft Office 2013 - maybe next year.

 

I'm quite satisfied with 2003 and leave it on my comps (with compatibility packet). Though when I work on comps with newer offices I like them as well.

 

Got a copy of 2010 for 9 bucks. So I said okay ...
Mrk

 

Wow... that's a great deal alright...

 

Yeah, that was an insane deal. To be honest i prefer the old MSO interface (Pre 2010) but i still keep using 2010 just to get used to it.
It's still quite hard to use the ribbon bar but i'm getting used to it.

 

You could install UBitMenu which brings back the menus. http://www.ubit.ch/software/ubitmenu-languages/

I really don't know why Microsoft didn't keep the menus in Office for people who don'r want to use the ribbon, or so they can use both menus and the ribbon while they are getting used to using the ribbon interface.

 

Just the same reason why they are pushing Metro on desktops. Go figure...

 

Office 2010 Starter.

 

I use Office 2007. I may just upgrade when 2013 comes out.

 

No option for "none". Can't vote. None of my PCs have MS office.

 

i use Kingsoft office

 

Running 2013. Liking it so far. It is the best version of Outlook yet.

 

2003 version

 

Unfortunately, Office 2013 lacks Microsoft Picture Manager...

 

Not a version of Microsoft Office.
