Get lifetime access to Microsoft Office for just $25 with this limited time offer

If you’re a student, work from home, or just have a few personal projects, you’ll probably want access to Microsoft Office. Having access to software like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and others can be a real help to many people, but it can be expensive to install on your own PC. Luckily, you can now get permanent access to Microsoft Office 2019 for just $25 on StackSocial — a whopping 89% discount on the regular price for a lifetime license.

There are actually two versions of Office for sale here. Mac users gets the Home and Business app suite, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams Classic and OneNote. Windows users gets the Professional Plus version, with extra apps like Publisher and Access. Keep in mind that you won’t get Microsoft Teams on the Windows version.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

This isn’t the latest version of Office, but compared to signing up for the Microsoft 365 subscription, which costs $7 per month or $70 per year for individuals, StackSocial’s offering may be a better deal for those who only need the basics and not the cutting-edge features. There is a free online alternative to Microsoft Office that you can use, but it lacks several features and can only be used in the browser. These days, Apple users can also score Outlook as a free Mac app . Still, the extra productivity apps available could make this bundle a good investment for most people.

A few important things to note: You get a one-time code for one computer, so you can’t download these apps on multiple devices. That means if you upgrade to a new computer or your current one breaks, you likely won’t be able to transfer the suite. These licenses also miss out on some of the added conveniences you get with a 365 subscription, including OneDrive cloud storage and cloud-based AI features including Microsoft Copilot.
