The Office 365 For Home plans.
» With a Home plan, you have five users that can each install Office products on five devices.
» With a Personal plan, you have only one user that can install Office products on five devices.
Both of these plans are on a subscription basis and you’re constantly guaranteed to have the most up-to-date software. When a new version of the products comes out you instantly get to install and use it. If you don’t like the subscription model, there’s a one-time purchase option, but you don’t get the updated products as they come out.
The For Home plans are shown in Figure 18-2.
When you’re looking for a business or organization plan, the options require much more thought and planning. Again, Microsoft is constantly jiggering the plans to try to segment the offerings in the smartest way for each type of organization. As of 2018, the business plans range from $5 per user per month (the Business Essentials plan) to $35 per user per month (the Enterprise E5 plan). These can be charged annually.
If you also use Windows 10, you can save money by bundling Office 365 with other Microsoft products. Microsoft labels these bundled packages as Microsoft 365. Check it out with a quick Google search.
The For Business plans are shown in Figure 18-3.
