Microsoft Office 2024 Home – PC

Office 2024 Home: Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote for home use

Office Home 2024 is the Office edition for private use and for school and university. It includes the desktop versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote. Microsoft previously offered this edition under the name Home & Student and licenses it for non-commercial use. The variant offered here is intended for the Windows PC. It is suitable for letters, job applications, household budgets, assignments and presentations, in other words wherever documents are created and edited locally.

Word, Excel and PowerPoint in version 2024

In Excel 2024, charts can reference dynamic arrays. If the number of entries in a list changes, for example in a household budget book that grows longer every month, the chart grows automatically with it. 14 new text and array functions help with preparing lists, and with the IMAGE function, images from the web can be inserted directly into cells, for example in a collection or inventory list. Microsoft has also improved the speed and stability of workbooks.

After an unexpected shutdown, Word reopens the documents that were previously open, so you do not have to search for an essay you have started. Comments in Word and PowerPoint can be answered with a “Like”. Word, Excel and PowerPoint support OpenDocument Format 1.4. In PowerPoint, Cameo displays the live camera image directly on a slide, and in the Recording Studio a talk can be recorded as a video with narration, ink input and transitions, for example for a presentation that has to be submitted in advance. OneNote collects notes, sketches and lists in notebooks.

Office 2024 contains fixed program versions and no services from a Microsoft 365 subscription. Cloud storage and cloud-based features of Microsoft 365 are therefore not part of the scope of delivery.

Difference from Office 2024 Home & Business and Professional Plus

Office Home 2024 does not include Outlook and is not licensed for commercial use. If Office is also used for work or Outlook is to be included for email and calendar, Office 2024 Home & Business is the right choice. If you additionally need the Access database application, choose Office 2024 Professional Plus.
