Microsoft Office 2024 Professional Plus

Office 2024 Professional Plus: Office applications with Access for the Windows PC

Office 2024 Professional Plus comprises the desktop applications Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote as well as the Access database application. The programs are installed locally on a Windows PC and work with files on your own computer or on the company network. Microsoft lists this edition under the name Office LTSC Professional Plus 2024. This makes the edition suitable for companies, self-employed people and organisations that maintain their own databases in addition to texts, spreadsheets and presentations and want to work with a fixed feature set for several years.

New features in Excel, Word and PowerPoint

In Excel 2024, charts can reference dynamic arrays. If a formula returns ten rows one time and fifty the next depending on the data, for example a filtered order list, the chart automatically adjusts to the current length. In addition, there are 14 new text and array functions for splitting and combining text and reshaping ranges without creating helper columns. With the IMAGE function, images from the web are inserted directly into cells, for example product photos in an item list. Microsoft has also improved the speed and stability of workbooks.

After an unexpected shutdown, Word reopens the documents that were previously open. Word, Excel and PowerPoint support OpenDocument Format 1.4 and save ODF files in this version by default, which makes exchanging files with programs that use this format easier. The accessibility tools have been extended, and images can be transferred directly from an Android smartphone into a document. In PowerPoint, Cameo displays the live camera image directly on a slide, and in the Recording Studio a presentation is recorded as a video with narration, ink input and transitions. Videos and audio files in presentations can be given captions.

Outlook and Access

Search in Outlook 2024 delivers more accurate results for emails, attachments, contacts and calendar entries. More options are available when creating and managing meetings. Access manages structured data such as customers, orders or inventory in tables and presents it via forms, queries and reports. This allows you, for example, to set up a small order or customer management system without installing separate database software.

Microsoft Publisher is no longer included in this version because Microsoft is discontinuing the program. Microsoft Teams is not preinstalled and can be downloaded separately. Cloud-based features from Microsoft 365, such as real-time collaboration or AI-powered automation, are not part of the feature set.
