Review by A Family Effort
Hard to tell if I would actually recommend this upgrade/install option to someone.
I don’t use everything in Office, so this will be a limited reviewnnPros - MS WORD:n-I love the new look for the software - the full screen operations - looks nothing like standard Windows applications - very Windows 8.n-Love the live layout and alignment guide to help you create a more professional document.n-Love the table editing options (I’ve always hated table in Word).

I have used this low cost item for years and found it to be reliable and effective. On the downside, it is an overly complicated product with dozens of features with poor ever changing documentation on how to setup and use it.
Every year, the setup and use procedures change which drives me nuts. So every couple of years, I look for another product but end up buying True Image again because it does one thing I need done well.

While somewhat complex to use, if a hard drive or software catastrophe overtakes your system, Acronis True Image will do exactly what it advertises it will do. It will completely restore your operating system, programs & files to the time and date that you last saved an image of your drive with Acronis. If you have a software failure, Acronis can have your system up in running in minutes. If you have a hard drive failure, you need to find another similar hard drive and then in minutes you can again have a working system.

Have experienced minor issues with H&R over the years but the low cost makes the extra efforts worthwhile for me. The 2014 version was the first to get me through fairly complicated tax issues easily using a Win 7 system.

Over several years, I have successfully and, for the most part, found this program easy to use and quick for the online filing of federal taxes. This year, after having completed and submitted my 1040, I discovered I had left out some investment gains and needed to submit a correction and decided to use H&R’s included 1040X procedure to submit this correction. This turned into a bit of a blessing.

Works quietly in the background and so far has not interrupted or slowed my work on a Win 7 desktop. Has identified both suspicious email content and online prompts. So far no false alarms.

Apparently Bill Gates thinks we haven’t suffered enough. Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) has been completely removed from the latest version of Office for the Mac. Unfortunately, I found this out AFTER wasting my money on this useless new product. DON’T BUY IT!!!!!!!

If you do any programming or statistical analysis with Office, stay away from this ripoff!!! VBA and the Analysis Toolpak are gone – and of course, you won’t find this out until AFTER you’ve wasted your money!!!!!

Excel 2008 will not save any documents on the grounds that I don’t have enough hard drive space; in fact, I have over 600 GB of space available.
