4.0 out of 5 stars Back to normal 15 Jan 2014
Amazon Verified Purchase
I used Microsoft Office on my PC. Having switched to a Mac I could not continue to use my existing Microsoft Office because it was not suitable for Mac. I struggled with Pages and Numbers for a while before deciding to buy Office for Mac. Back to normal now.

1.0 out of 5 stars Really poor service from Amazon 20 Feb 2014
Amazon Verified Purchase
It's Microsoft Office and we either love it or we have it. This review is about the Amazon.co.uk service related to the purchase, not a review of the software.

I bought this download from Amazon because it was about ten pounds cheaper than buying it directly from the Microsoft store. I placed my order in the normal Amazon way, however, there was a 90 minute delay between me paying for the software and Amazon sending me the link to download it and (most importantly) the license key. I placed my order around 9:50pm and the download link and license key were sent to me at 11:19pm.

I wanted to install the software on a new Macbook Pro I'd bought ready for use at work the following day. Having hit my forties now I go to bed around 11pm so the impact of the delay was me not being able to install the software on the night that I'd paid for it. I've bought Office for Mac 2011 from Microsoft directly before (for my iMac) and the process was smooth, I had the license key pretty much straight away, so I'm very disappointed with this service from Amazon.

Further, I sent an e-mail to Amazon complaining about the delay and they just sent me a standard response telling me to re-download the software. I don't think they even bothered to read my e-mail properly and understand the problem.

So, in conclusion. Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 is Microsoft Office for Mac 2011. However, Amazon seemed to have turned into BT.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic delivery by Amazon 3 Jan 2014
Amazon Verified Purchase
I had tried to buy a version from Microsoft but it was such a hassle as I needed to get a log on id account set up etc etc. It put me off so I continued to use Pages and Numbers (not brilliant though). Eventually I gave in but I checked to see if I could buy the office from anywhere except Microsoft direct. Amazon came up trumps. Brilliant Fantastic, service. Gave me detailed instructions. It worked absolutely to the letter of their instructions. Was a super fast download and the licence was delivered immediately.
I am now working with the Word, Excel and Powerpoint and its everything I wished for.
I can't praise Amazon highly enough - they just do everything the easiest way.

4.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need, but a bit pricey 30 Oct 2013
Amazon Verified Purchase
Having bought this for Mac use, I wonder why it is SO much more expensive than Apple's equivalent "Pages" which seems to do pretty much the same. Having said that, it does everything I want from it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent process and product 9 Jan 2014
Amazon Verified Purchase
It was easy to follow instructions and download the pack.On ordering I was informed that there could be an up to 4 hour wait to download but an email would be sent when download was avaialable. About 2 hrs later the email arrived and from there on in it was a very smooth process. The email included the product key that is needed to unlock access. It is great to have the Office systems on the Mac and my view is that you get the best of both worlds. It is also great to have the download avaialble in the Amazon software library so that if a further download is needed you have accesss. Well done Amazon

Totally satisfied with this product, though I would've liked to have a multi licence version to use on all my computers instead of having to buy 1 for each.
