It is not possible to predict what MS will do as they don't have a clue.From the Office home page select Install Office apps > Other install options. Strangely Office 2011 (for Mac) is not on the supported list, but this is Microsoft so who's surprised (they make a Windows version of Outlook that is compatible with iCloud and a Mac version that is not, go figure) The current version includes Office 2013, with the earlier version the customer needed to buy 2010 (if they wanted local software that worked with Office 365). Office 365 has been available for 2 years, it has always been subscription based and worked with Office 2010 long before iCloud existed. Add to that the size of the installed Windows base vs Mac base, the fact that 365 is cross-platform so that it's available to all right now! and will likely drain off some Mac users, and that programing new versions is expensive, I doubt MS is in any hurry to satisfy Mac users with a new, disk based version of Office. Now that it is, the subscription model is likely a lot more profitable for MS since, instead of the user just missing out on a few new features in any eventual upgrade, the user is simply shut down if he doesn't pay up. Pardon the quote modification but until the Cloud and ubiquitous really fast internet connections, a Cloud based alternative wasn't possible. Past practice predicts that the next version for the Mac will be called Office 2014. Some quick tests of that suggest that on simple pdf's, the feature works pretty well, but add a bunch of graphics and/or complex text flow, and it's the difference between uncooked and cooked spaghetti.įinally, there are free office clones available, such as LibreOffice or OpenOffice can get the job done, though they're not quite MS Office.

And in comparing the two, the 2010 interface is more pleasant to work with, and if you don't need or trust the Cloud, the big new feature in 2013 is the ability to open and edit pdf files. On the other hand, I was surprised to find that the 2013 installation didn't delete the 2010 installation. So you can see the push is towards subscriptions by making them a much better deal, at least price-wise.

Third, the subscription system is supposed to get you any full upgrades (e.g., 2013 to 2015), while the disk based 2013 is it you'll have to buy 2015 fresh, if there even is such a thing by then. Second, I believe you can move those 365 installations around, while with the computer based install, you can't deactivate it on one machine and reuse the license on another, at least not without dealing directly with Microsoft.

First, you get one 2013 license whether you bought the 1 or 3 user Office 2010 install, whereas the Office 365 upgrade choice (you could pick either with the Office 2010 purchase) gets you five installations, at least for one year. Yesterday, I installed the free Office 2013 upgrade after having recently purchased (the 3 user pack) and installed Office 2010 on a Windows Virtual Machine.
While only Microsoft knows its plans for Office for Mac, it's clear that Microsoft is pushing users to a subscription base rather than, as you put it, "software which i can use whenever i want until i want to uninstall i," which happens to be what I prefer, too.
I was looking at the office 2011 but i said there will be a 2013 version,īut i get disappointed to know that there are no office 2013 for mac. I'm new to mac world, i havnt install any office software yet.

I want the whole software which i can use whenever i want until i want to uninstall iĪre'nt the Microsoft will build a Office 2013 for mac? I dont wanna use the office 365 because its no sense at all. U know what i mean, the office 2013 that is not the subscription one.
