Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Office 2016

Microsoft Office is probably some of the most used software on the planet. I remember I started using it back when I was in high school.
So, what makes it so great? Or better yet, why should you use it?
Well, there are so many reasons why. For one, Microsoft Office Suite is feature-packed with necessary office tools. With it, you can create, edit, and save Word documents, Excel sheets, PowerPoint presentations, notes, projects, publications, access databases and so much more. It's simply all the best office programs wrapped into one.
At some point, everyone has used - or will use - a Microsoft office program file. It's not too late to start using this impressive suite.
  • It's endowed with tons of features and functionalities.
  • The Office Suite programs all come with a user-friendly and easy-to-understand interface.
  • It supports multiple file formats.
  • Microsoft office offers all the necessary tools to fully customize a file to meet your or your company's preferences and needs.
  • It has tons of beautiful and relevant templates that are free to use.
  • Customer support is great.
  • The Microsoft Office 2016 Suite isn't lightweight and may not be ideal for anyone using a device with low RAM memory.
  • Sometimes the frequent updates can be annoying.
  • Buying the whole Suite doesn't necessarily mean that you'll use all the programs in it. And that seems to be a bit of a waste since you are paying for all the programs.
  • Microsoft Outlook needs a lot of work in order to compete with other mailing applications on the market.
  • The amount of work you can do using Microsoft Office 2016 is well worth its price. I've been using it for quite some time and can sincerely say that it offers me and my company great value for our money.
Yes, it's true that there are a lot of alternatives to Microsoft Office 2016 including:

* Google Docs.
* Kingsoft Office.
* Libre Office.
* WPS Office.
* Calligra Office

However, none of them offers you the features, functionalities, and programs that Microsoft Office 2016 offers you. In fact, most of them only offer three things - Word, Spreadsheets, and PowerPoint alternatives.
Simply put, Microsoft Office 2016 is well suited for school and office work. Students and office workers often use Microsoft Word to come up with office/research papers and documents, build interactive projects with databases, and use Excel to learn how to use spreadsheets in business. Any tasks that require typing, calculations, and presentations are a Microsoft Office 2016 type of task.
