TL;DR: Replace your Microsoft 365 subscription with a Microsoft Office 2019 lifetime license for Mac for just $39.99 (reg. $229). Sale ends Dec. 8 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
The cost of a Microsoft 365 subscription may seem small, but it gets a whole lot bigger when you realize you’re never actually done paying for it. Monthly or yearly renewals add up, and it can feel like you’re paying more for convenience than necessity.
If you want an alternative that lasts for life and doesn’t require you to convert all your files to a new format, check out this lifetime license for Microsoft Office for Macs. Instead of paying monthly, you can pay $39.99 just once, but hurry up if you’re interested. That price changes after Dec. 8.
What’s included?
This version of Microsoft Office includes essential apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, redesigned to take advantage of Mac’s Retina display and full-screen view support. Whether drafting a document, analyzing data, or managing emails, the suite is ready to keep work moving.
Need to use Teams at work? This version has Teams Classic, and now you don’t have to pay every month to check your professional group chat.
So why is it so cheap? This is a license for Microsoft Office 2019. It’s not as flashy as the recent versions, but these apps still work great for work or school. There are actually a few benefits to getting an older license. Older machines don’t have to struggle with software that needs modern hardware, and you don’t have to deal with all the unnecessary integrations and distractions of more recent software.
Really important detail: once you download, make sure to turn off the auto-update. If you don’t, Microsoft will try to update you to Office 2021, which will invalidate your license.
