Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Recommend Product: YES

I'll come straight out and say it - I like MS Office. Sure, it has its faults and it's not perfect, but Entourage is my email/organiser app of choice. So break out the rotten tomatoes and pillory me :)

However, my big gripe is that Auto Update never picks up these updates. Of course, I can download the update from the MS website and install it manually, but running Auto Update just gives me a message to the effect that my software is up-to-date when it is not. I would really like it if this could be addressed at some point.

That aside, the suite seems to work fine for me. Sorry.

Auto Update - Adam9

Mine picks it up 1-2 weeks late. Better than nothing, I suppose, but annoying. Maybe they do it to spread out the downloads.

Auto Update - zonMaster

I agree, Office is just great. It has it's share of problems but when you compare it to Apple's iOfferings you can't compare; Office is far superior!
