 Absolutely awful September 7, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I obtained office 2007 through work a month ago and have just uninstalled it to reinstall office professional 2003 after giving it a good trial. There is no need for half the screen to be taken up with tool bars nor have I the time to waste trying to set up the links I require. This appears to be an update for first time users and has nothing to offer me that 2003 doesn't do better. Very disappointed!

Microsoft are getting cocky again - this has possibly the worst user interface I have ever encountered complete with terrible visual style, appears to have been designed to be deliberately counterintuitive with the loss/change of many shortcuts as well as the loss of menus, and I did not notice a single new feature.
Get OpenOffice or stick with office 2003.

Just a quick note for all those fearing they won't be able to use files created with the new Office in previous versions. You can download compatibility pack from MS website which will let you open the .docx .xlsx etc files in previous versions of MS Office. As with most software upgrades there will be some issues with compatibility and some files (especially the ones using some advanced formatting etc. not available in Office 2003) will not look identical but that's perfectly normal.
Overall great piece of software! Will take some time to get used to the new layout but once you know where things are it's definetly easier to use and more productive.
Just one more thing - for those of you who are using or planning on using databases: the new Access is so much easier to use and so much more user friendly you'll be amazed!
One To Avoid. June 30, 2008

Well, I can't say I wasn't warned. I read the Amazon reviews regarding this product, but wondered if some of it wasn't just a few people suffering from that well known disease Hate-Microsoft-itis. So I wasted my hard-earned money and bought this. Big mistake. My computer (which is state-of-the-art) now takes at least twice as long to start up and Outlook 2007 has crashed at least once a day since it was installed, though it's usually a lot more often. I don't have a problem with the interface, I think it was due for an overhaul and whilst it does take some getting used to, most of it is pretty intuitive. But this software is very unstable. Word has crashed on me twice and Outlook, as mentioned before, is practically unusable. If anyone from Microsoft is reading this, might I recommend that you actually test your software properly before offering it for sale.

Microsoft Office 2007 Professional Edition (PC) - yet another over priced example of microsoft's delusions of grandeur.
