Default Upgrading MS Office for Business Use

Hi I'm hoping someone with some experience in this may know more than I.



I'm looking to upgrade MS Office at work. But there's FAR too many options and I just wanna

Basically, I have 20 users so understand that I need 20 individual copies. I've been quoted £180 each by a Microsoft partner for Home and Business 2016.

I'd like to spend less if possible whilst of course remaining legit. Somebody suggested it would be much cheaper to buy 2010 instead but I'm wondering if that will still be useable in years to come. Or rather, will there be a point when we just cannot use it any more?

We probably don't need any features beyond what is already in the 2007 versions and only really need excell, word, outlook and powerpoint.

Definitely don't want 365 as I prefer one outright payment to a subscription service. I am open to any other suggestions also.

Thanks in advance

You might want to look at: http://www.electronicfirst.com/gift-...nal-plus-2016/ - Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016 @ £19.99 each. I can't tell whether it's legit, though.

Default How can you tell if buying legit?

The site itself checks out, which makes me wonder how could a legitimate business be selling dodgy Office and getting away with it?

Or if this is legit, how can this be so cheap?

I'm looking to buy around 20 copies of MS Office for business use. I've never been responsible for purchasing Office before so not entirely sure where to begin
