by Boing Boing's Shop · Boing BoingTL;DR: Get a lifetime license to Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2019 for Windows for $16.97 (reg. $229)
Here's a radical concept: paying for software once and then just… using it. No annual renewal. No $10 charge coming in every month. No email that starts with "Your subscription is about to renew." Just the software you need installed on your PC, forever. Microsoft is finally allowing that to happen. That's how you can get a Microsoft Office Pro lifetime license for $16.97 (reg. $229).
Remote worker's best friend
Through this lifetime subscription, you get the full Microsoft suite: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, Publisher, and Access. This software runs locally, works offline, and doesn't require you to log into a browser every time you need to open a spreadsheet. It's like the Microsoft suite you've known for years, minus the constant recurring payments. Updates include analysis tools in Excel, improved presentation features in PowerPoint, and better email and contact management in Outlook. And because this is an older version, it also plays better with older computers. No more lagging just because you dared to run a macro in Excel while having a slightly more seasoned machine.
This subscription is a great move for basically anyone who needs to get work done. Remote workers who need reliable offline access, students who aren't trying to pay a subscription fee on top of tuition, and small business owners who just need Word to write a proposal and Excel to track invoices. Your key and download link are delivered instantly after purchase. Is it the flashiest, most AI-overloaded version of Office? No. Is it exactly what most people actually need? Also yes.
