 A complete improvement to 2003 February 21, 2007

I am currently using the trial version of this product and I have to say, I am completely impressed. This is the first time that this product has been marketed as a Home and Student, rather than a Student/Teacher, so it is more affordable for home users, who in the past could not qualify for the Student/Teacher package.
The interface is smooth, with many more functions within a single mouse click, and easy to access. Each time I am using the programmes, I keep finding new functions that are just fantastic - such as cover pages for word documents, with various templates to create a completely professional image. Not undoable before, but now so much quicker.
The lack of Outlook is disappointing, and pricey to add in, but maybe Microsoft will change their minds, then again maybe not.
I've never purchased additional software such as this before, instead making do with whatever is on my computer, but I will not be returning to the previous version.
Very user-friendly, an excellent product.

probably like most people who have used microsoft office from inception, the new visuals and file menus of the 2007 version initially jarred with me.
however, after a long period of use, they all make sense. menu items likely to be used first are to the left, most are in the middle, and the finishing off ones are to the right, in logical, intuitive fashion. once this is grasped the whole system is easy to pick up.
i also like the ease of use too. some have complained that we now are forced to use more mouse clicks. i don't find this to be true. indeed, on many occasions the options are laid out so obviously that two clicks do instead of five or six. e.g., especially in formatting tables.
one of the best things about word 2007 is its ability (with a tiny downloadable add-on) to save documents in .pdf format. previously i had had to have the entire open office suite on my computer just to do this one simple task. now i don't have to.
office 2007, in particular word 2007, KNOWS how to layout the menu commands. in previous versions, command buttons would frequently be lost off the right-hand side of the screen. word 2007 keeps the important buttons and, if your screen size is smaller (say, you have a 15" monitor) the "sacrificed" buttons will be the style buttons, which are still easily accessible via a drop-down menu.
a useful new feature: selecting text with similar formatting. just put cursor on, say, a word already italicised. then select all text with similar formatting. now you can change all text in italics to bold. a simple and easy way to do something that previously was time consuming and awkward.
another thing: creating and editing charts just got a whole lot easier. the process is so intuitive (or perhaps previous versions of word were counter-intuitive) that it's difficult to make a mistake.
oh, and a last thing, why would you actually pay MORE for word 2007 alone when the office 2007 package is CHEAPER?
would i buy it again? absolutely!
Brilliant. Office 2003, with more features and very easy to use... January 3, 2007

I use office 2007 on beta, and have been very impressed by how easy it is to navigate between menus, put your favourite buttons in bars on the screen, and the ribbons make it so easy to use.
If you like Office as a package, i would recommend getting it, but if you only use publisher- stick with 2003- as the new one doesn't use the ribbon and is almost identical. However, Excel is far easier to use and far better to look at, whilst word is very similar. Excel makes it easier with the merge cell button being on the main ribbon, and cell formatting being a drop down, not a pop up, which was frustrating in 2003.
Simply, if you use office regularly; and especially word and excel, buy this. It's nice to look at, easy to use, and a far better package that office 2003.
Great value for money April 30, 2007

I required Word, Excel, Outlook and OneNote leaving me only two viable options - either Office 2007 Standard Edition plus OneNote 2007 (total cost > [...]) or Office Home & Student 2007 Edition plus Outlook 2007 (total cost < [...]). An obvious choice, and it's worth pointing out that OneNote is still a largely undiscovered yet indispensible piece of software, allowing even the most organised of people to effectively collate all of their notes into one place, whether these be task lists; screenshots (known as clippings in OneNote) of literally anything, with intelligent URL capture of 'clipped' web pages; printed documents from any other program (via the OneNote printer driver); etc. A key feature of OneNote is the exclusion of 'save' options, meaning that everything you do in OneNote is automatically saved as you do it, so no more lost work in the event of a crash. It is logical to include OneNote in a package which is also aimed at students, as I can see exactly how a student might use this application to organise their study notes, timetables, revision, etc. I would have used OneNote extensively had it been available when I was a student!
The 2007 versions of Word and Excel extend their superseded cousins with a polished feel, and rendering in tune with Internet Explorer 7 (this is visible across the entire 2007 range of Office applications). Excel 2007 finally supports a realistic number of rows (1048576) and offers considerable new and improved functionality. Creating tables in Word 2007 is now easier than ever, and Times New Roman has finally been replaced as the default font. There are all sorts of improvements that will make you smile, and that is true of this entire Office product, which offers great value for money when you consider that it can installed on up to three PCs in your household under just the one licence.
Highly recommended even without Outlook, which can of course be purchased separately.
