Strengths: New interface, Office 2007 Ribbon, includes OneNote unlike most other editions, includes Word, Excel, Powerpoint and OneNote 2007, costs cheap, specially designed for students and home use.
Weaknesses: Not as feature heavy as other edition of Office 2007.
Overall Evaluation: Office 2007 is a really great new product and Microsoft has outdone themselves this time. I really like the new interface and the Office "Ribbon" makes thing so much easier. A great improvement to an already great product - Google and OpenOffice have nothing on this great little package.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Windows VISTA compatible, full product with media, license to install on 3 computers, reasonable priced, compatible with Office at work.
Weaknesses: Not much especially with the included $25 rebate
Overall Evaluation: I got this for my new home PC with Windows VISTA. It came with the CD media which made installation easy. I like the fact I can install this on 3 computers. This is the only reasonably priced Office version as I only needed Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I don't use the included OneNote and at home who needs Outlook when there are so many Web based email around like gmail and yahoo mail.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: This version is affordable. I am thinking I only need one activation, perhaps I can sell the other 2 on ebay like I see others doing which will really make this affordable software for me.
Weaknesses: One bugger that irks me is MS Office always asking me if I want to save a blank page when I go to close. My personal opinion is that One Note falls short when compared to Evernote.
Overall Evaluation: I tried to use the other office products. I really did. Just not the same at all. Always worring if this or that will be okay with Word. My DD and I need MS Office for school and about every thing. My last copy of 2003 MS Office did not let me down, I figure 2007 Office will continue to be the most popular Office used in the future to come.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: more image editing features; can save as PDF format; licensed for 3 computers
Weaknesses: difficult to find commonly used features; using up lots of RAM to work
Overall Evaluation: I bought this because I wanted to have a legit copy of MS Office. I like the old versions better. The common features that I used in the older versions is difficult to find in this 2007 version. I guess I just have to put some time into using it. It requires a lot of RAM on your system in order to run smoothly. I had 1GB of RAM and had to upgrade to 2GB. The main thing I like about it is the ability to save as PDF format and that the license is for 3 computers (if it's for your own use--not to share with others).

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Very many new features
Weaknesses: Same as the strength
Overall Evaluation: I liked this version a lot. It has so many things. I could do multiple things while making presentations. Sometimes I don't even need to use Photoshop. You wouldn't believe that I use powerpoint to make very high quality poster. I have mostly used Word and PPT. Menu icons have been nicely arranged. The document can be saved in different formats like docx and 1998-20XX compatible format etc. It deserves a try.

Strengths: Easy to install. Includes Powerpoint which I find really useful.
Weaknesses: Takes up a considerable amount of hard disk space.
Overall Evaluation: I upgraded my computer from WINDOWS XP to VISTA and needed to get the latest version of OFFICE, especially WORD and POWERPOINT. Excel is also important for me.I purchased this version and am glad that one software package included WORD, EXCEL and POWERPOINT. It also includes ONENOTE but I don't use that currently.It is important to remember to save files in a format compatible with earlier versions of the products if you will be sharing with other users who are using older versions. Some of the changes in screen layouts and commands needed some getting used to but after a while everything was OK.

Strengths: More robust; icons make for less time navigating menus
Weaknesses: Larger tool bars reduce work screen
Overall Evaluation: Icons provided in lieu of drop down menus for many style and editing functions; more robust applications. Since drop down menus have been replaced, it is sometimes difficult to find functions; use of icons increased size of toolbars, reducing size if work screen

Strengths: I like it's new look and new features. Easy to use once you figure out where everything is.
Weaknesses: At first you don't know where everything is. Price isn't bad for $119. Doesn't come with Outlook.
Overall Evaluation: I think this is a big upgrade from the lastest Microsoft Office. If you can spend the money, get Office Standard with Outlook if you need it. Other Microsoft products have cooler applications if you can afford it.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: lots of features, slick new interface
Weaknesses: interface takes some getting used to
Overall Evaluation: office 2007 home and student comes with word (super-typewriter with thesaurus, mailmerge, etc), excel spreadsheets and analysis, and powerpoint (presentations) and something called one-note which helps with sharing and commenting (I think). License allows for installation on up to 3 Computers. If you need database software, Access comes in the professional version which is more expensive.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: New look
Weaknesses: No outlook, runs a bit buggy with my Vista.
Overall Evaluation: What happened to outlook? I kept searching trying to figure out where they put it, was it renamed? Visually I really like word, much more eye pleasing. At first glance, it appears a little overwhelming to find something. One annoying issue that I've had is the need to adjust the paragraph lines to single and check "don't add spaces box" before I can begin a letter. Otherwise, I happy with the new version, I can live with it sans Outlook.
