As officials have said before, Microsoft is not making all the Microsoft 365 features available in the non-subscription Office, so things like advanced grammar suggestions in Microsoft Editor and Presenter Coach in PowerPoint won't be part of the non-subscription version.

These include the ability to 'modernize' formulas in Excel, record PowerPoint presentations more easily, and access to more creative content. Microsoft is also adding some features to the perpetual, non-subscription Office 2021 that are already available to Microsoft 365 subscribers. The visually updated Microsoft 365 and Office 2021 will work on both Windows 11 and Windows 10. The apps in the suite - Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Access, Project, Publisher and Visio - all will get the UI update. Rounded corners, a 'neutral color palette,' refreshed tabs in the ribbon and synchronization between the app themes and Windows light/dark mode are all part of this refresh. Microsoft officials are giving Office 2021 the same visual update that they're providing for Microsoft 365. Both of these variants are limited to use on a single PC or Mac and will be supported for five years. Home and Business includes everything in Home and Student, plus Outlook for PC and Mac and the rights to use the apps for business purposes, officials said. The Home and Student version includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and Teams for PC and Mac. Office Home and Student 2021 will cost $150 Office Home and Business 2021 will cost $250. Office Home & Student 2019: This is a one-time purchase of Office and includes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Office 2021, which is aimed at consumers and students, not business users, will be available in two versions. Today, October 1, Microsoft officials shared details about the other Office 2021, which will begin shipping on October 5, the same day that Windows 11 starts rolling out. Microsoft has announced that Office 2016 for Mac is now available as a one-time 149.99 purchase without an Office 365 subscription. Microsoft already made available last month one of two of its non-subscription, perpetual Office products: Office LTSC.
