Microsoft 365 offers lots of capabilities especially for the business. > > **Cons**: Cost is so so. Could be better. I don't find Microsoft 365 as friendly or simple as I do Google Suite. > > Overall it's a good and strong product. It has great tools for the business and several useful setting for the admin. ----- ### "Their AutoSave Feature is a Must" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *25 February 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the different programs that Microsoft 365 offers. It's great for work, especially when it comes to their autosave feature. I don't know how many times their autosave feature has saved me honestly. Additionally, they are pretty great on storage. > > **Cons**: What I like least about Microsoft 365 is how limited the access can be, especially because it's a paid software so it tends to get very pricey and sometimes formats converted to other formats tend to get weird. > > I have used Microsoft 365 for school and for work, and thankfully both work and school has paid for the software so it was one less thing for me to worry about. Overall, it has been positive and I'm continuing to use all their different programs for work and my university classes. ----- ### "Best Online File Collaboration" — 5.0/5 > **Orlando** | *18 February 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: That I can collaborate with fellow colleagues on Excel, Word and PowerPoint documents in real-time from different locations and devices, without having to save my work and send a file as attachment. > > **Cons**: At this stage I can't think of anything that I dislike with the product, I am still trying to figure out Co-Pilot. ----- ### "Universal Office Suite" — 4.0/5 > **Giovanni** | *26 January 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is the most used Office Suite, and it can also handle the majority of formats from other Office Suites. Most of our users feel very comfortable using this software. > > **Cons**: Updates are sometimes painful. I would like to choose which apps to install instead of having the all-in-one combo, and even when uninstalling manually specific apps, they are reinstalled with updates ----- ### "Great package of different applications" — 5.0/5 > **Lauren** | *23 March 2026* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great that you have multiple applications in this pack. Word and excel are the ones I use on a weekly basis. PowerPoint is used as and when required.great integration with other products like email and professional systems like LEAP and Tikit. > > **Cons**: Like I said above, the integrations with other systems are great but sometimes they struggle when n loading. Ie, when I use LEAP and load a word or excel document, this can be the main reason that my computer crashes. > > Amazing products with so many uses and functions. Used on a daily basis at work and also personally at home. ----- Page: 1 / 563\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/397757/office-365?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/397757/office-365) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
