Microsoft Office Pro 2021 Drops to $28 for Windows Users
Microsoft Office Professional 2021 for Windows is available for $27.97, down from its regular retail price of $219.99, in a sale reported by Mashable. The discounted software package provides a lifetime license intended to let users bypass ongoing Microsoft 365 subscription fees.
Purchasers receive a single-use download for one Windows PC. The suite includes full desktop versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and database management tools. Instant license delivery accompanies the purchase, alongside free customer support.
Mac Users Pay $99.97 for Perpetual Office Access
Mac users face a different price tier for perpetual access. Microsoft Office Home and Business 2021 for Mac sells for $99.97 without any monthly or annual fees attached.
The Mac license includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, the free version of OneNote, and the Basic tier of Teams. A single license installs on one Mac and links directly to the user’s Microsoft account rather than the hardware itself. The software requires at least 4GB of RAM and 10GB of free disk space, supporting the three most recent macOS versions—currently Sonoma, Sequoia, and Tahoe. Running the suite through Parallels or other virtual machines is not supported.
Windows Promotion Ends in November
The Windows promotion carries strict cutoff times. Mashable reported the $27.97 price runs through November 1 at 11:59 p.m. PT, with another source text noting availability until November 16 at midnight. No coupons are required to secure the Windows discount through StackSocial.
For macOS buyers, redemption codes arrive via email immediately after purchase. Macworld noted that customers have seven days to redeem these single-use codes, and the listing remains ineligible for additional coupons.
