We reviewed Office 2011 Home and Business, which costs 1 for a single install or 2 for three installs if you want to put it on three computers at home or work. This suite includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. If you dont need a businesslevel desktop email client, you should opt for the Home and Student version at 11 for a single install and 14 for three installs, which includes just Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Unfortunately, there is no upgrade pricing for Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac because Microsoft found that most people buy Office when they buy a new computer and there was little interest in carrying upgrades at retail outlets.
Office 2011 is a worthy upgrade for those who desire new templates and visual s, better ways of editing content in publications and presentations, and easier methods of collaboration. The ability to work from anywhere with the new Web apps is surely a big reason to upgrade if your job requires that kind of flexibility.

Those who are switching from Windows to Mac in a work environment will appreciate the new ability to seamlessly transfer your Outlook data from a Windows machine. Youll now be able to import your data files .PST created in Windows Outlook directly to your Mac. But be aware that youll only be able to import .PST files from Outlook 200 or later.
Office Web Apps allow you to get things done when and where you want, from virtually any computer with an Internet connection.
With its return in Office 2011, the Ribbon is clearly the preferred method across the entire suite for getting to features quickly. If you didnt like the Ribbon in Office 200, you probably wont like it now, but we think theres plenty of utility in having a common intece tool across all the apps. If youre still not convinced the Ribbon is worth your time, you can turn it off easily and use miliar dropdowns and palettes.

Outlook for Mac also makes it easy to get messages from all your email accounts in one place. New Unified Folders consolidate your various exchange and online accounts into one inbox folder for easy reading. If you find it overwhelming, you can always browse each account separately by expanding a unified folder for inidual account access.
With Outlook now available in Office 2011, several features are now available to Mac users that used to require separate and often not fully compatible software solutions for previous versions. Now, with a connection to Exchange Server 200 or later, Mac users will be able to use global address books, set up meetings and send meeting requests, and check the availability of attendees on calendars. Like the latest Windows version of Outlook, Conversation View is now available for Mac it easy to find older messages in a thread by putting them together in one place. You also can click an arrow on the left edge of the inbox item to instantly expand a thread into conversation view. According to Microsoft, this feature has gotten a mixed reaction from users, but we think once people get used to grouping email threads together in Conversation View, it will save them a lot of time.
One of the biggest additions to Office 2010 for Windows was the addition of Web apps that let you work on the go. With Office 2011 for Mac, youll now be able to easily take your work with you as long as you have an Internet connection. You can save your Word, PowerPoint, and Excel files online, then access them from anywhereeven with proper formattingand youll be able to use a slimmeddown, but miliar Officelike feature set. Best of all, its easy to switch back and forth between your desktop and Web versions of your work. You can create your document on your desktop, for example, then save it to the cloud via Windows Live SkyDrive or SharePoint 2010, then make small edits on the road via the Web apps, and then open them again on your desktop to continue editing. What sets these apps apart from Google Docs and other services is that your documents and spreadsheets retain their formatting, giving Office 2011s Web apps a leg up against online counterparts.
MS Office is not for me. Its expensive and has extremely poor support for non proprietary file formats like OpenDocumentFormat. LibreOffice does all I need. Its more buggy, but its slowly evolving and becoming more reliable.

Once we dug deep into the feature set of Office 2011 for Mac, we saw there were several enhancements that made the whole suite better, and some of the niftier tweaks are even Macexclusive. Certainly many Mac users will look first at Apples iWork for a productivity suite, and it is a great office suite in its own right. But if you work with primarily Windows users who use Office, its tough to beat the automatic compatibility of using the same programs.

The venerable software for spreadsheet creation and management received a few major improvements in Office 2011. Just like its Windows counterpart, youll now be able to add Sparklines to your spreadsheet to make your data more visual.

The new Web apps and coauthoring features make Office 2011 a bit better than Google Docs solutions, letting you easily retain your original formatting and providing an easy way to switch from online to desktop with only a couple of clicks. iWork remains a viable alternative and might be a better choice in an all Mac environment, but if you need compatibility across both Windows and Mac platforms at your workplace, Office 2011 is the way to go.
Youll also now be able to manage formatting using a new Visual Styles pane. Helpful for keeping formatting consistent, the Visual Styles pane shows where in your document specific s are applied using a handy numbered and coded system. This is a major improvement over previous versions that often had users struggling to figure out which parts of the document included specific s. Now changes in documents are laid out in front of you.

Possibly the bestlooking feature of all in PowerPoint 2011 is exclusive to the Mac version of Office and very useful for managing complex slides.

By choosing Dynamic Reordering in the Arrange menu, youre able to look at graphical elements of your slide in a D layered view, allowing you to move elements toward the front or back by clicking and dragging them to your preferred location. These features are available in Word 2011 as well, and will be very useful for managing graphically complex newsletters or brochures with several graphical elements.
All of the new tweaks to the intece and each of the apps in the suite make Office 2011 for Mac a great option, but with the rise of cloudbased computing and online office suites like Google Docs, we wonder how long the big desktop apps like Office will remain on top. This latest Office client for Mac is definitely a solid offering, but how long can Microsoft hold on to its dominance?
Whether youre a brochure, a newsletter, or a business presentation, youre going to want eyecatching to make your project pop. In Office 200 this meant you would be searching through the object palette of the toolbox or sifting through your media folders in the Finder. The new Media Browser gives you a centralized location to browse s, video, iMovie projects, iPhoto libraries, and your music from iTunes so you can grab what you need quickly whether you are in Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, or Excel. If you dont have time to sift through each of the categories, you can do a quick search by keyword to get what you want. The suite is filled with timesaving shortcuts like these and we think it shows that the Mac team at Microsoft has been listening to users.

Microsofts PowerPoint is a mainstay for business meetings and now has added features to make it easy to create engaging visual presentations rather than the usual boring bullet points.
Does Office 2011 for Mac offer enough to make it worth the upgrade from earlier versions? Absolutely. With all the new features that will save you time from quick edits within the suite to easy sharing of your work, and much more, Office 2011 is a huge improvement over Office 200. New templates and quick access to video and editing tools are welcome additions for those who create visual presentations of their content. Serious spreadsheet power users will like the new features that tie data together in Excel while complex data more accessible in the Ribbon and more exciting visually with Sparklines. Outlooks new conversationview features for saving time managing your email could save daily email users a lot of time, if theyre willing to learn the ropes initially.
Alongside intece enhancements like the Ribbon across all four Office applications, Microsoft Office 2011 offers a number of features that should reduce the time you spend gathering information so you can spend more time on getting the project done. The new Conversation View in Outlook collapses email threads so you can view the entire conversation without sifting through your inbox, for example. Likewise, new editing tools in Word, PowerPoint, and Excel are welcome additions for anyone who works with media in documents and presentations, obviating the need for thirdparty editors in most situations. Many of the new features and tools help you push your presentations and documents away from the usual bullet points and toward moreengaging visual presentations.
The installation for Office 2011 for Mac is quite painless. Just like any other software, youll be asked for permission to make changes to your system, then its only about 10 minutes install time depending on the speed of your Mac. Like a lot of software these days, youll need to have at least Mac OS X 10. Leopard to use all the features in the Office 2011 suite.
One of the great things about todays office suites is that, with most documents, you dont have to start from scratch. Office 2011 for Mac features an enormous number of templates in the Template Galleries for Word, PowerPoint, and Excel. Choose among greatlooking resumes and newsletters, complex photo catalogs, and calendar layouts, which let you fill in your information without the need for extra formatting. Even if the selection in Office 2011 doesnt have what youre looking for, you can browse more than 10,000 usergenerated templates and filter by category or keywords to get exactly what you want. From there you can make customizations to your template to make the project your own. We particularly like the ability to mouseover templates to view multiple layouts; it saves you a lot of time to not have to open each template to see what of elements are used on each .
Sparklines visually summarizes your data using tiny charts that fit within a cell near its corresponding values. Microsoft Excel for Mac 2011 Sparklines is compatible with Microsoft Excel 2010.

A new publishing layout view in Word makes arranging elements of your document much easier, with draganddrop functionality that automatically causes your to wrap around objects you import. Dynamic guides appear automatically when you need them, or you can keep specific guides on the desktop while you work for easy access.
The Ribbon has returned as the unifying intece component across all the apps in the suite. Though Microsoft has met some resistance from users on both platforms for this particular feature, we think once people get used to the flexibility of the Ribbon it will save them an enormous amount of time. Rather than digging through menus and scrolling through palettes, the Ribbon uses s that commands relevant to a given task. As an example, clicking on an in Word, PowerPoint, or Excel will change the s in the Ribbon to related tasks so you can make changes quickly without having to search through menus. If you still just cant get used to the Ribbon, in Office 2011 for Mac, you can turn it off and use regular dropdown menus an option that several Windows users probably wish they had. Still, we recommend taking the time to learn the Ribbon as an investment that will save you more time in the future.
Coauthoring allows you to save time and simplify your work by allowing you to edit the same Word document or PowerPoint presentation at the same time as others in different locations who are using Office 2011 on a Mac or Office 2010 on Windows. Coauthoring requires Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 for enterprise use, or a free Windows Live ID for personal use, to save and access files via Windows Live SkyDrive.
Some of the strengths of using Outlook in the workplace are the scheduling tools that let you map out your workday. In Outlook 2011 for Mac, some helpful new features include the ability to preview your calendar directly from a meeting invitation to see if youre available to attend. A small preview window shows up in the lower right of an invite showing what you have scheduled around that time. Youll also be able to stay on top of your busy schedule with the My Day window that lets you view upcoming appointments. Both of these features are great timesavers because you wont need to open your full calendar each time you need to check your schedule.
In keeping with your projects more visual in Office 2011 for Mac, Excel 2011 now offers conditional formatting tools to make your spreadsheets easier to understand, and not just a wall of data. Now, youll be able to browse through icon sets to show trends over time and data bars that make percentage increases or decreases more visual and easy to understand right in the spreadsheet. There are more than 40 builtin formats to choose from, but even if you cant find what you need, you can create your own.air max 2014Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac
