Elsewhere, tools and functions that were overlooked in promotional campaigns for Office 2010 have not been highlighted. What has happened is that basically Microsoft has repackaged the existing Office suite with a new "Modern" user interface and integrated some features that were available via free downloads.

Sure, there are a few new features in Office 2013, but on the whole, these are nothing to write home about and certainly don't justify an expensive upgrade from Office 2010 (except, perhaps, in extreme cases). If any of those three things make you sit up and think " Hmm, I reckon I should be upgrading to Microsoft Office 2013", then think again – if you're running Office 2010, you already have these features included. OneDrive integration! New views in Excel and PowerPoint! Facebook integration with Outlook! Why You Think You Need Microsoft Office 2013 What this essentially means is that by adding free downloads from Microsoft to Office 2010, you can save hundreds of dollars.
Microsoft Office 2013 might have a new user interface and offer "new" features (see below) but all in all, it is just the same package as released previously, plus a few free add-ons. It soon became apparent that Microsoft seems to be playing a very interesting – and risky – game.
While I mulled these questions, I had a bit of a play with Office 2013.

Over the weeks it has been a reasonably solid experience with one or two quirks causing me no end of frustration.īut do I want to upgrade? Do I want to pay for a subscription or full purchase or would I prefer to stick with Microsoft Office 2010, a suite that I've been using successfully for several years now? Indeed, should I even think of abandoning Microsoft in favor of an open source alternative?
