The most valuable components for everyone working from home, home users and students: all of this blends Office 2019 into the Home and Student Edition. It is a program for exactly one device, which includes the programs Word, Excel and PowerPoint. OneNote is also part of the package and is available for download from the Windows Store in Windows 10. Users store data either offline directly on the computer or online in the cloud through the use of OneDrive or similar providers. "Doing more at home or at school": That is the motto of Microsoft, which can be achieved with this edition of Office 2019.
Professional-looking documents can now be more effectively designed in Word 2019: editing, checking the content of the printout at the printer are done in one go. In addition, the familiar search functionality of the predecessor is included, giving beginners quick access to all the key features in Word 2019. Completely new to the Office 2019 Home and Student version is the integration of SVG graphics, which are easier to scale and move than JPG or PNG graphics. Anyone writing on a touch screen with a stylus will enjoy improved text recognition. This is especially helpful when capturing notes.
PowerPoint 2019, however, is just made for presentations: The well-known tool allows the design of slides and complete presentations on a professional level. Ideas and information can be visually and acoustically more appealing. New to PowerPoint in Office 2019 and all versions is the ability to use Ultra HD-resolution footage so that 4K videos can now be smoothly integrated into the slides. Improved support for zooming and scaling existing photos or other graphics also eliminates the need to purchase additional image editing programs. From simple slides to multi-page slides, PowerPoint 2019 is the tool of choice.
With Excel 2019, purchasers of this license have access to the well-known spreadsheet application. Data of any kind can be entered easily and intuitively and processed optically. Shortcuts allow quick access to the most important functions for users who work with Excel daily. Improvements in the new version include the mathematical functions, which are now included in larger numbers in the package. In addition, the application provides new methods to display data visually appealing and thus provide a tool for visualization. This saves all users time and yet enjoy the familiar workflow with Excel.
OneNote is no longer part of the package in Office 2019 Home and Student. Instead, interested parties can download the program in the Windows Store. Furthermore, Microsoft has removed compatibility with all older versions of Windows. Windows 10 must be installed on the device to take advantage of Office 2019 and all its applications. However, it is a perpetual license that is being updated by Microsoft for at least five years. Unlike Office 365, there are no subscription fees. Backing up data in OneDrive may cost you.
