Word, Excel & PowerPoint at your service for $30

TL;DR: Classic Office apps on your Mac for $29.97 — buy once, skip monthly fees forever.

It’s the same old story with those free apps. Formatting breaks, spreadsheets behave weirdly, or a file someone sends you just doesn’t look right. Suddenly, you’re exporting, re-exporting, and wishing you were using the real thing.

Right now, Microsoft Office Home & Business 2019 for Mac is $29.97 (MSRP $229) — which makes the usual “subscription vs ownership” debate a lot easier.
