 Awful Interface - Don't Buy. Stick with Office 2003 or OpenOffice October 5, 2008
No stars. I can only repeat what others have said about the inaccessibility and inflexibility of the command menus. A totally unnecessary revision and a complete waste of money. It is now uninstalled from my computer. Don't buy this awful product - stay with Office 2003 or try OpenOffice which is free.
If AOL made office - this is what it would look like October 4, 2008

When i first used this program at school, i was like OK... let me ask the technicians if they can reinstall the old office. Omg its just horrible, every-things out of place and theirs no way of changing it back to the old style. If office was designed for people who cant read or wright this is what it would look like, but then that defeats the object of WORD!! ITS JUST A USELESS AND I MEAN ABSOLUTELY USELESS UPDATE LIKE WINDOWS VISTA DON"T BUY IT!!!! If however you like shiny blue interfaces that would make AOL proud, and want to learn a whole new program that you already no how to use. This is the program for you and only for umm... 349.98, well thats really cheap isn't it, i actually cant believe its as cheap as photoshop cs3, and also we added an extra function - the use up all of your processor so you cant use anything else when your running office function.
Another incompatible piece of software September 17, 2008

I recently bought a student version of this package for my son who needed to use Microsoft publisher for his school work. I already had Office 97 professional and for me this has been adequate.
This product adds nothing of value that I can see, but totally changes the appearance of the user interface making it that more difficult to use as you do not know where to find things.
Worse than this there are two serious flaws which are going to influence me to uninstall this software.
1. If you download some word files, written in an older version of Word (97-2003) some of the symbols are not interpreted properly. This happended to me when I downloaded some maths exam papers. Symbols such as square roots are substituted for other characters.
2. If you have two versions of Office installed, every time you click on an office document, the software will take at least a minute initializing, before it can load both itself and the document in question. There have also been many instances where the software has crashed and a report is sent off to microsoft. This happens alot when you open office documents online. So most of the time I download and save the document first before reading.
I am thinking of removing this software from my computer, now that my son has his own laptop. If there are any further problems, that will be his problem.
For those of you thinking of buying this software, my advice to you would be don't. You would be much better off downloading OpenOffice from the Internet and using this instead. It is, as far as I can tell compatible with Microsoft Office, is free, and easier to use. It also includes useful features such as the ability to convert Word documents to pdf format etc.
Absolutely awful September 7, 2008

I obtained office 2007 through work a month ago and have just uninstalled it to reinstall office professional 2003 after giving it a good trial. There is no need for half the screen to be taken up with tool bars nor have I the time to waste trying to set up the links I require. This appears to be an update for first time users and has nothing to offer me that 2003 doesn't do better. Very disappointed!

Microsoft are getting cocky again - this has possibly the worst user interface I have ever encountered complete with terrible visual style, appears to have been designed to be deliberately counterintuitive with the loss/change of many shortcuts as well as the loss of menus, and I did not notice a single new feature.
Get OpenOffice or stick with office 2003.
