I have to disagree. It all depends on the value I receive which some are a bit better than before.
For example for Office365 Home you get 5 licenses including 1TB of OneDrive all for $99/year.
If I had to pay for just one Office Suite License(word, ppt, excel) would be around $200(low end). If I needed 5 that would be $1000. Now divide that $1000 over how many years you would probably use before wanting upgrade which for me would be 3-5. At 5 years it is average $200/year for lesser product because it doesn’t even include the value of 1TB OneDrive.
Thus 99$/year is cheaper in my mind and I am happy to pay them instead of looking for for some pirated version. It just works and I get newest version whenever it is released.
- shantnutiwari 5y agoYeah, MS offer great value. I was with Dropbox, and they increased their prices to $99 for just storage. And I cancelled it, as I get 1Tb storage + Ms Office for that amount.
- rchaud 5y agoIt's not worth it when you consider Office 2013 was available as a single $99 purchase for 5 machines, forever. For a business however Office 365 w/Outlook makes sense because maintaining your own email server is way too much hassle these days.
