 For a "non-power-user" it is worth upgrading from Office 2000 Professional August 23, 2008
Ferb
I decided to upgrade from Office 2000 Professional. As instructed I simply put the new CD in and the upgrade progressed and completed flawlessly.
At first the new "Ribbon" layout was very strange and intimidating. I was lost. I then went to the MS Office website and did the free Office 2007 tutorials. I am now able to use more features of the 2007 suite than what I could use of Office 2000 Professional. (They were probably there, but I was not aware of it) Therefore, my opinion as a non-expert user is that the new "Ribbon" layout is advantageous and easier. However, if I did not do the tutorials I would probably still have been sitting and clicking around aimlessly wishing I never upgraded from the old familiar 2000 version.
The only reason I upgraded to the "Small Business" version of the Office Suites was because it was unexplainably the cheapest. It has all the features of the "Standard" suite plus some more, but yet, costs less. It beats me.
 Office Small Business 2007 Upgrade September 23, 2008
The Critic (Savannah, GA)
Have mixed feelings about Office 2007. 2002 was much more user friendly. Plus some bugs occured with Outlook express not recognizing my email password, (STILL EXISTS) also had to reload the program because of some issues with Excel
It is an intense program and almost requires re-learning the Office program all over again.
 Not so productive productive software. October 3, 2008
Jeremy Elder (SoCal USA)
They did a few things right with this release. The new increased cell variation limit is one of those and the primary reason for our upgrade(7 systems all XPP SP3). Another welcome feature was threaded performance increases and the ability for several users to be updating a single document at the same time. We also like the new formula editor. However it now takes three extra clicks to do anything like inserting an image or setting a print area and that's after you know where it is. One user with dual monitors has Excel hang the system and crash daily. Performance in Outlook and Word appear to be the same but now with a clumsy user interface. All and all, if you have used office for a few years and 2K3 is working for you don't waste your money but this is still better than the free alternatives.
Typical overblown Microsoft product October 5, 2008
Thomas E. Proctor (Dublin, GA)
This is a typical Microsoft product loaded with stuff that 98% of people don't want, need, or use. I prefer Word 2000 but you can't buy it any more. I had to buy this to put on a new computer which is the only reason I bought it. Also, the Amazon price was the cheapest I found.
