The Office runs reliably as expected. But there is more to a good experience these days than a functioning programme.
But if you lose access to your account and can't restore it, you're really out of luck with Microsoft and have to go through a support odyssey. Regardless of whether it's a 90-minute wait at the call centre, insufficient help online, or a garden-variety attitude via email (We are the account team, please send the Office team back to support), in 2018 I simply expect a global company like Microsoft to offer decent support and not charge 34 euros at the end of the day to solve a problem. After all, you already bought the Office for CHF 139.

The three Office programmes PowerPoint, Word and Excel have been doing roughly the same thing for 20 years, with a few improvements in the period mentioned... Therefore basically everything is OK
But now comes the big one:
- You MUST register online with Microsoft.
That means: First name, last name, date of birth, mobile phone number (this is verified), e-mail address which you will certainly never need again except for the...
In addition, the whole registration process was very tedious. Again and again I got an error message saying that it was not possible to register at the moment. Restart the browser and after a few attempts it works. In addition, I was asked again and again whether I wanted to have an Office 365...
That's all well and good with Office 365, but an absolute no-go with a "lifetime" licence.
If you really only need one Office, I recommend a free OpenOffice or an older version which is available with a CD...
Everything i.O. . but the old Office 2010 also runs with Windows 10!

People are old creatures of habit and that's why I'm sticking with Microsoft Office, with this version again for 10 years.
