I'm confused about which version of Office 365 to purchase these days.
Last year I bought the Office 365 Small Business Premium subscription since I wanted to run the Office software on my Surface Pro 3 without online connectivity. Now the subscription has expired and I don't know if I should pay another $150 a year to renew or look at other options.
My requirements:
* Run local Office apps on my Surface Pro 3;
* Optionally run an Office license on a new desktop machine I plan to build this Fall. I also want a license free in case I buy an SP4 if it's released in the next year (so may need two extra licenses);
* I only need Excel, Word, MS Access. I don't care about Skype or Outlook for local apps;
* I don't need the online storage (I edit all data on the local computers). However I assume some online storage comes with all options;
* I'm not a small business.
Here's one of the Microsoft Office product pages for reference.

I plan to call Microsoft Sales next week to speak to a rep, but wanted to get any ideas from people here first.
Also, after I speak to the rep I'll come back here and post the results (so hopefully that will make this thread useful to other people on here looking for similar guidance).
