Microsoft Office 2019 Standard, Professional and Professional Plus: What are the differences between these versions?

There are times in life when we just don't know what to choose, and if you're here now, you're probably going through one of those times. Microsoft Office 2019 is so complex that choosing between one of the three versions can be difficult.... Or is it? Today we present the differences so you can decide which is best for you.

If you have reached this point, it is because you know that Microsoft Office 2019 Standard, Professional or Professional Plus are possibly - as we always say at Licendi - the best known, most versatile and most complete Office application packages available, and you have decided to buy the original Microsoft Office licence, as we have recommended in other articles.

But which version should you choose? The answer is simple: it depends on the applications you will be working with.

You probably know the well-known applications Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access, OneNote, Publisher and Skype. Today, they are all industry-standard programmes, each with its own function. Each version of Microsoft Office 2019 includes some of these programs and excludes others. And that's exactly what you need to know to solve this dilemma.

Microsoft Office 2019 Standard

The Microsoft Office Standard version is intended for private use and contains the following programmes:

Microsoft Word

It's a word processor. Perhaps the most widely used in the world. Whatever you need to write, you can do it right there. You can also insert pictures, tables and other resources.

Microsoft Excel

It is a calculation and organisation programme. With this application, financial calculations are carried out and the information is structured so that analyses and reports can be created later.

Microsoft PowerPoint

It is a simple programme for creating presentations with one or more slides. You can insert texts, videos, audios, graphics, images, gifs and other elements to make your presentations more personal.

Microsoft Outlook

It is an application that is mainly used as an email server. But it goes much further, offering a calendar, contact and task management, notes and much more.

Microsoft OneNote

It is like a virtual notebook in which you can enter texts, pictures and any idea that comes to mind.

Microsoft Office 2019 Professional

As the name suggests, this is a variant of Office that is used more at the working level (professional). In addition to all the programmes included in the standard version, this version also contains:

Microsoft Access

It's like a database. Many companies use it to enter and manage information that can then be shared by all users in the company to create reports.

Microsoft Publisher

One of the most creative programmes. It can be used to create professional-level publications and marketing materials, e.g. catalogues, brochures, etc. You can configure them for direct printing or distribute them on the Internet or by e-mail.

Microsoft Office 2019 Professional Plus

This version of Microsoft Office 2019 contains the same programmes as the previous two variants, but with a plus, as the name suggests. This extra is:

Microsoft Skype for Business

Skype was the pioneering software in telecommunications. Today there are many more possibilities, but for many years it has been used for video calls, video conferencing and instant messaging between employees of the same company to make communication more efficient.
