As you may already know, Office licenses are usually the first choice when it comes to buying office applications. Here we can find a wide variety of programmes that will be of great use to us. From Word, "a tool that allows us to create complete text documents" to Excel, "the best ally for organising and managing blocks of text".

Microsoft Office has various packages and subscriptions that we can choose from. First of all, it should be made clear that the differences that you will have in each and every one of the different versions, will be limited to the applications available in the different versions of the software, in the duration that you want for your software or even the version and the year of the same.

What applications are typically included in Office?

If you have been looking for differences between the versions available in Office licences, you will have noticed that the biggest differences you have between the versions of the programme are the applications that will be included in the different products.

Available versions of Microsoft Office 2021 licenses:

  • Professional Plus 2021. 

  • Home & Business 2021.

  • Home & Student 2021. 

  • Standard 2021.

Office 2021 Professional apps:

As its name suggests, the Office 2021 Professional license is the most complete of the three available. In addition, one of the big differences that you can find with the other types of licenses on this list is the inclusion of Publisher and Access, applications that can be very useful if you work in a company. In fact, these types of licenses are usually intended for business use, so you can activate several accounts with a single key.

It should be noted that the time available for your licences will depend on the type of key you are going to acquire. It is therefore important to bear in mind that there are several different types of licenses and to make it easier for you to purchase them, we would like to provide you with a short list of the different versions.

Office 2021 Professional Plus apps:

  • Word

  • Excel

  • Powerpoint

  • Outlook

  • Acess

  • Publisher

  • Skype for Business

As we can see from the applications included, Professional Plus can be considered the most complete version of all of them. In Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2021 we have the advantage of having all the programs included in our license. From Licendi you can find both the OEM version and the Retail version, which means that we will have two different purchase options:

Firstly, we have the option of choosing the Office licence in its Retail version, this will be linked to our Microsoft account and we will have the advantage of being able to activate our subscription, even if we lose or even suffer an accident with our device. However, if we are looking for a better price, we will have the option of getting the OEM licences.

Office 2021 Home and Business apps:

  • Word

  • Excel

  • Powerpoint

  • Outlook

The biggest difference between the Office Home and Business version and the Home and Student version is the inclusion of Outlook. However, the Office Home and Business licences are aimed at small individuals who do not need to make extensive use of all the applications available.

Office 2021 Home & Student apps:

  • Word

  • Excel

  • Powerpoint

  • One Note

As we can see, Office 2021 Home & Students is the basic package of the Microsoft Office suite. This type of licence is ideal for use in a small family group where everyone in the family can share a computer.

Office 2021 Standard apps:

  • Word

  • Excel

  • PowerPoint

  • OneNote

  • Outlook

  • Publisher 

  • Teams

As we can see from the programmes included in the Office Standard licences, they are a very good option for the price. In addition, the biggest advantage you will have if you purchase an Office 2021 Standard licence is the great content offered at a low cost.
