Overview

The good:
  • Previously hard-to-find features now easier to explore
  • Easier to produce impressive documents, spreadsheets, etc.
  • Improved integration throughout the applications
  • Documents easier to salvage if corrupted
The bad:
  • Steep learning curve if you're upgrading
  • New interface isn't always intuitive
  • Users of older versions need converters to read Office 2007 files
The bottomline:

Microsoft Office Standard 2007 is a worthy upgrade if you need to make sleeker-looking documents and presentations. But you stick to your current software if you don't feel that it lacks anything.

Editors’ rating:

7.8/10

RRP: AU$690.00
