question about 365

Ann Foxworth
开云体育Hello David Thanks for starting this list. What is the current cost of 365 and what bugs have you seen with it around JAWS access? I’m running Windows 10 and JAWS 00. Currently, I have Office 016 and have been pleased with it, for the most part, except after updates, when things go wonky. ? ? Ann Foxworth ?

Eileen, As this is a list focusing on Microsoft Office products I'd like to keep the discussion to your questions on Office and not on other types of software. Having said that I can assure you that Microsoft 365 as well as Office 2019 allow you to store your documents on your local hard drive. You are not forced to store them in the cloud if you don't wish to do so. However, you can also save them to your computer as well as to the cloud as a backup. If you decide to go with Microsoft 365 you'll automatically get Outlook, which will allow you to perform any email-related task that you would ever want to complete. .

开云体育Ann, The cost of Microsoft 365 depends on whether you're purchasing it
for use at home or for a business. have a few choices. Microsoft 365 Personal costs $69.99 per year and includes a terabyte of OneDrive space which, for me, is a very attractive benefit. You can also purchase it on a monthly basis. Office 365 Home costs $99.99 per year, also with an option to pay by the month, and allows for up to six users, with each user getting their own terabyte of storage on Onedrive. I believe you also get 60 minutes of Skype calling per month but I'm honestly not a Skype user and so I'm not in a position to offer any feedback about that service. As for bugs with JAWS I'll let others on the list address this. This can depend on the version of JAWS you are using, any issues which may have been introduced in any particular JAWS update as well as unintended issues introduced in an Office update, which is released on a monthly basis.

开云体育I know this is an old mail, but I am just now catching up. ? What is the difference between Microsoft 365 personal and Office 365 Home? I could really use a reduction in cost the next time I renew (currently on the Office 365 Home as I pay $106.99, that is $99.99 plus tax,). They have rebranded and as of this year I am on that second price whatever they are calling it. ? Cindy ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of David Goldfield

开云体育Okay, I followed the link you provided (missed it the first read), and I now see why I had the other version. When I originally signed up, it was used between me, my father, and my sister. My father passed away and my sister is in school and she doesn’t use it outside of school work so I can downgrade myself to the single users. ? Thanks for the info, and thanks for letting me ramble. Cindy PS I am loving being on this list even though delete about 75% it is really nice picking up tidbits of info without having to look for or it (and in some cases just simply learning how to do things an easier way). ?
