Which apps are included in Office 2024 Professional Plus?
Office 2024 Professional Plus includes six desktop apps: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote and Access. Microsoft Publisher is not included in Office 2024, because Microsoft is retiring it. Teams is a separate free download and isn't part of the suite.
| App | What you use it for |
|---|---|
| Word | Documents, letters, reports and CVs |
| Excel | Spreadsheets, budgets, formulas and charts |
| PowerPoint | Presentations and slide decks |
| Outlook | Email, calendar and contacts |
| OneNote | Notes, notebooks and to-do lists |
| Access | Desktop databases (only in Professional Plus, not Standard) |
Is Office 2024 Pro Plus better than Microsoft 365?
Office 2024 suits you if you want to pay once and keep using the same apps on one PC. Microsoft 365 suits you if you want the newest features every month, 1 TB of OneDrive storage and installs on several devices, and you're happy to pay every year.
| Office 2024 Professional Plus | Microsoft 365 subscription | |
|---|---|---|
| Payment | One time | Monthly or yearly |
| Feature updates | Security updates only; features stay fixed | New features added regularly |
| Devices | 1 Windows PC | Several devices, including Mac and mobile |
| Cloud storage | Not included | OneDrive storage included |
| Access database | Included | Included on Windows |
A practical point we often explain: Office 2024 is a "fixed" release. It gets security fixes for its supported life, but it doesn't gain new features. Many businesses prefer that, because the apps behave the same way year after year.

Frequently asked questions
Is Office 2024 Professional Plus a one-time purchase?
Yes. You pay once and can keep using the apps on one PC with no subscription. Microsoft provides security updates for Office 2024 for its fixed support period. After that, the apps keep working but no longer get new fixes.
Does Office 2024 include Publisher?
No. Microsoft left Publisher out of Office 2024 because it's retiring the app. If you need Publisher, look at Office 2021 Professional Plus, which still includes it, though support for it will also end.
Can I install it on a Mac?
No. Office 2024 Professional Plus is for Windows only. Mac users need a dedicated Mac edition of Office, which uses a different product key.
Can I move Office to a new PC later?
This key is for one PC. If you replace your computer, contact our support team with your order number first. Whether a transfer is possible depends on the licence type, so ask before you uninstall from the old PC.
