Office 2019 will add these new features-including improved inking, data analysis for Excel, Morph and Zoom transitions for PowerPoint, and more-but they’ll be more like a snapshot in time. But Microsoft periodically adds new features to the versions of the Office apps that ship with Office 365. Basic functions like spell-checking don’t change much from year to year.
#CAN YOU BUY WORD WITHOUT OFFICE 365 LICENSE#
Owning a perpetual license to, say, Word, is enough for some. With Office 365, you’ll pay more, but the payment will be spread out over a longer period of time: Microsoft’s Office 365 Home costs $100 per year, for example. (Microsoft did not announce a price for Office 2019, though Amazon sells a single copy of Microsoft Home & Business for $210.) Microsoft would prefer customers to sign up for Office 365 instead, however, which encourages customers to pay for Office on a monthly or annual basis, with new features and patches arriving regularly. Microsoft calls Office 2019 a suite of “perpetual” apps, because customers will pay for them with a one-time fee, rather than a recurring subscription. Presumably, Microsoft will offer different versions of Office 2019 (including a version for the Apple Mac), but executives didn’t say.
#CAN YOU BUY WORD WITHOUT OFFICE 365 PLUS#
The Office 2019 suite will include the standard complement of Office apps: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, plus server apps like Exchange, SharePoint, and Skype for Business. Office 2019 will ship in the second half of 2018, Microsoft said, with a preview version scheduled for mid-2018. But for those old fogies who prefer standalone software, Microsoft announced Office 2019 on Tuesday. Microsoft would really like you to sign up for one of its productivity subscriptions: Office 365, or better yet, the new Microsoft 365.
