This is the cheapest option given the fact that you probably will do more than 3 to 5 years with a single Office version. These are the basic Office apps that will be more than sufficient for most people that only write an occasional Word document. The Home & Student version of Office 2019 is basically only Word, Excel, and PowerPoint that you can install on one computer (PC or Mac). If you want to know more about these plans, you should check out this comparison. If you go for Office 365 Business Premium, for example, you would also get Exchange Online, SharePoint and a lot of other features. This is the most inline with the Office 2019 products. To compare the business plans, I have taken the cheapest plan from Office 365 Business. There is also an Office 365 Personal plan, which is $30 cheaper a year but is for only one person. To start with the personal use, I have taken the most used version for Office 365, the home version. So I created two separated comparison tables for you: For home or personal use Let’s first start with comparing the two products side-by-side, so you can easily see what the big differences are.īesides the differences between Office 3, there are also some differences between home use and business use. But that is not all, while both versions come with the latest Office apps (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc), Office 365 comes with cloud-based storage (OneDrive), online access and free upgrades. In short, Office 365 is a subscription-based license, you will have to pay a monthly fee for it.

So the big question is, what are the differences between the two versions? If you are planning to upgrade your Office or are new to Office your might have noticed that there are two versions available, Office 365 and Office 2019.
