Along the lines of DeltaMac's comment: if going with Office, do you really need 2016? What feature in there that is a must need. I'm running with 2011. It creates the latest MS formats (ie. Docx, xlsx, pptx, introduced in 2007[?]), just like 2016. Install Office for Mac now Unmistakably Office, designed for Mac Get started quickly with new, modern versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote—combining the familiarity of Office and the unique Mac features you love. October 11, 2016, update for Microsoft Office. Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 and Microsoft Office 2016 for Mac. Product Knowledge Base title and article number; Office for Mac 2011: MS16-121: Description of the security update for Office for Mac 2011 14.6.9: October 11, 2016(KB3193442). And plenty of people/services can't handle these formats, so, you are creating files in the old formats, which 2011 handles just fine. Even then, 95% of the time, I'm using LibreOffice, which does a good enough job (for most of my scenarios) in doing these formats as well. Office is there for those situations where there's something 'off' with the MS file and can only be handled properly in Office. Then again, this is coming from a guy that used Office 2003 in an XP virtual-machine for 10 years, until Office 2013 was announced and Amazon dropped the price of 2011 to $70-80, getting me to get a more current version and for Mac. I have an Office 365 subscription. It allows me to install Office 2016 for Mac, which is the best version for Mac yet, but miles behind the Windows version. I can also run Office 2016 for Windows on BootCamp/Parallels, which is the real deal. Plus, I have additional installations to use on other computers and I can also install it on smartphones and tablets. While Office 365 is expensive (US$ 100), it can be found cheaper. It is currently at US$ 85, and the keycard is US$ 82, at Amazon.com, for instance. I get an Office 365 licence for free from my university and so upgraded to 2016 when it was released. 2011 Excel and Powerpoint were fine, but I found Word to be horribly outdated, laggy when handling larger documents and difficult to navigate using the Mac trackpad. 2016 Word is far superior to navigate and use, and looks much more clean. Meanwhile, I've found Excel and Powerpoint to be just as good as before. Never had any issues with it being slow, although I have a pretty beefed up 15 inch retina. Not heard any complaints from my class mates either. I have an Office 365 subscription.

Primarily because of the solid file compatibility between the iOS and OSX versions. I do miss some of the more advanced features of iWork '09 (but keep THAT around too, LOL) I'm quite impressed with the ease of working on files on the iMac/Macbook and then switching to the iPad. And with splitwindow support in iOS 9, the Air 2 is becoming a viable option. ![]() I've been a bit frustrated with attempting to use MS Office across devices and platforms. Primarily due to the tighter integration with OneDrive. I have found OneDrive to be highly unreliable when syncing the OneDrive cloud with more than one device. Another limitation is in the iOS version of MS Office.

Maybe testing speed and so on with a stop watch or similar way might show advantages of the Windows counterparts, which, coming from Microsoft would not surprise me but for daily use I had never problems on the mac side. As to LibreOffice and similar free office programs it's always nice to find things made to help other people instead of snatching their money. I'll stick with Office 2011 since I have the 3 X install version. I also have Office 2016 and agree with the previous replies that it's bloatware. Also in 2016 there is no way (yet) to make changes to the Ribbon or to the Quick menu. Office 2011 is still fully configurable and continues to work with all Office documents and with the latest update of El Capitan. Since Pages, Numbers, and Keynote are now free with a new Mac, and unless you absolutely need Office for document exchange with other users, the iWork apps should suffice for most folks.
