Office 2010 Comes With Some Nice Upgrades On Its Previous Incarnation
With the launch of Office 2010, which began shipping last year, there have been some fabulous upgrades to the previous Windows only version Office 2007.
Office 2010 is a hugely profitable product offering from Microsoft, and it newest incarnation features improvements that one would expect from any update to this productivity suite. Office 2010 boasts improved features, such as :
- a better copy and paste function in Word,
- more powerful data analysis in Excel,
- the ability to video edit in PowerPoint,
- and better organization of email messages in Outlook, which are now sorted in a newer simpler “conversation” view.
Additionally Microsoft has scaled back the number of Office 2010 offerings, and instead of eight different versions that were part of the Office 2010 family, Microsoft instead has chosen to offer just 5 versions of Office 2010.
Would be buyers should take note, that the Home and Student versions continue to exclude Outlook.
The more interesting part of the latest version of the ubiquitous Office productivity suite, is that buyers will also have the ability to work in a free and simplified web version of Word, PowerPoint, Excel and OneNote. All programs work across multiple browsers, including Firefox, Safari, as well as on any PC or Mac.
Microsoft needed to provide this capability given the success rivals such as Google have had with their free offerings, though it would be wrong to underestimate just how keen some factions at the Redmond based Microsoft would have been for the company to give away some version of its flagship offering.
Next time you buy a laptop or desktop from Dell Australia, make sure you bundle the latest version of Microsoft Office with your purchase.
