Microsoft Office 2013 Software Suites

Microsoft’s famous Office software suites are available in three different versions depending on which set of applications you need.

Licensing choices

Microsoft’s latest version of their Office suite is available in two different licensing models; single purchase (Office 2013) and subscription-based (Office 365). We sell only Office 2013 which is based on the more traditional one-off licence purchase. In contrast, Office 365 is subscription based which means that you need to pay annually in order to be able to continue to use the software.

Office 2013 can be installed on a single PC and used indefinitely. The software can be transferred from one PC to another should your current PC break down or if you decide to buy a new computer.

Software installation

Office 2013 licences are supplied as Product Key Cards which are then used to activate the software which can be downloaded from the Microsoft website, (see the link to the right). Please note that because Product Key Cards are “medialess”, installation DVDs are not supplied.

PLEASE NOTE: Microsoft is moving their office suites over to the medialess format. This means that when a product is purchased an email with a product key and a link to where the software can be downloaded will be sent. At this time this refers only to Office Professional 2013. Home & Business and Home & Student are still shipped with a product key card as mentioned above, but this may change as new stock arrives.
