Your credit card is exhausted from all of today’s subscription fees. Well, if you act fast, you could swap your Microsoft 365 subscription for a Microsoft Office lifetime license.

Instead of spending a little money every month, you can pay once and use the apps as much as you’d like. For a little while longer, the Windows software suite is on sale for £26.24 (reg. £182.23) until 22 December at 11:59 p.m. PT.

What apps are included?

Microsoft Office 2019 isn’t the newest version available, but it’s the cheaper one for people who just need to use the apps and don’t care about what they look like inside. However, it does have a classic, timeless design.

Here's a list of the apps you get:

  • Word

  • Excel

  • PowerPoint

  • Outlook

  • OneNote

  • Publisher

  • Access

Differences between Microsoft 365 and a lifetime license

This purchase is a no-brainer if you aren’t taking full advantage of Microsoft 365’s OneDrive storage, mobile app access, and cloud-based backups. Those just wanting the apps should be more than comfortable with a Microsoft Office download.

You might actually like this license more than the subscription. The apps are downloaded directly onto your PC instead of hosted on the cloud. While this does mean there are no built-in cloud backups, you don’t have to worry about the hassle of trying to work offline.

Plus, now that Microsoft added Copilot’s AI features to Microsoft 365, you might be looking for a way to escape them. Not everyone is pleased about having a virtual robot interfere with their work, and these classic apps won’t ever bug you about it.
