Microsoft Office 2019 is the current version of Microsoft Office, a productivity suite, succeeding Office 2016. It was released to general availability for Windows 10 and for macOS on September 24, 2018.[1] Some features that had previously been restricted to Office 365 subscribers are available in this release.[6]
History[edit]
On April 27, 2018, Microsoft released Office 2019 Commercial Preview for Windows 10.[7] On June 12, 2018, Microsoft released a preview for macOS.[8]
New features[edit]
Office 2019 includes many of the features previously published via Office 365, along with improved inking features, LaTeX support in Word, new animation features in PowerPoint including the morph and zoom features, and new formulas and charts in Excel for data analysis[citation needed].
Soal uas ut administrasi pertanahan. OneNote is absent from the suite as the UWP version of OneNote bundled with Windows 10 replaces it. OneNote 2016 can be installed as an optional feature on the Office Installer.[9][10][11]
For Mac users, Focus Mode will be brought to Word, 2D maps will be brought to Excel and new Morph transitions, SVG support and 4K video exports will be coming to PowerPoint, among other features.
Despite being released in the same month, the new Office user interface (including their new icons) in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook is only available to Office 365 subscribers, not perpetual Office 2019 licensees.[12][13][14] The Office 2019 user interface retains the Metro design language from Office 2016, except that the Microsoft account picture is circular.
Deployment[edit]
Office 2019 requires Windows 10, Windows Server 2019 or macOS Sierra and later.[15] macOS installations can be acquired from the Microsoft website or the Mac App Store.[16] For Office 2013 and 2016, various editions containing the client apps were available in both Click-To-Run (inspired by Microsoft App-V) and traditional Windows Installer setup formats. For Office 2019, the client apps only have a Click-to-Run installer and only the server apps have the traditional MSI installer. The Click-To-Run version has a smaller footprint; in case of Microsoft Office 2019 Pro Plus, the product requires 10 GB less than the MSI version of Office 2016 Pro Plus.[17]
Office 2019 will receive five years of mainstream support, but unlike Office 2016 which gets five years of extended support, Office 2019 only gets two. Mainstream support ends on October 10, 2023, while extended support ends on October 14, 2025.[15]

- ProsPerpetual Office license. Enhanced graphics features, better support for digital pencils, morphing transitions in PowerPoint. Funnel charts and improved pivot tables in Excel. New view options in Word for concentrating on text.
- ConsNot cheap unless you get it through a corporate or educational site license. No access to new features that will continue to be added to Office 365. No real-time coauthoring as in Office 365.
- Bottom LineMicrosoft Office remains the most powerful and flexible office suite money can buy, and the locally installed software version trumps even Microsoft's own Office 365 when it comes to stability and its one-time purchase model.
Microsoft recently released Office 2019, the latest version of its Windows and Mac office suite, with useful new features slotted almost seamlessly into the familiar interface. A distraction-free mode for Word, better pivot tables for Excel, and better graphics and support for digital pencils for PowerPoint are just a few of the many tweaks and improvements to the venerable Office. While these aren't huge upgrades to the suite, they could be big productivity boons to the right users.

Office 365 users will point out that they've had many of these features for a while now, but local software fans will counter that many of them haven't seen a new bill for Office since at least 2016 (when office 2016 was released), whereas Office 365 users have to pay each and every month. Both versions are excellent, of course, and we'll go into the pros and cons of each later in this review.
Pricing, Versions, and Compatibility
As always, Microsoft offers more versions of Office than anyone wants to keep track of. The Office 2019 versions that most people will care about are Office Home & Student 2019, at $149.99, which includes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, and is licensed for one Windows machine or one Mac only. Office Professional 2019 at $439.99 for one Windows PC only, adds Outlook, Publisher, and the Access database.
You need Windows 10 (32-bit or 64-bit) for the PC version; older Windows versions aren't supported for Office 2019, although Office 365 will continue to work under Windows 7 until January 2020, when Microsoft stops supporting Windows 7 altogether. (Windows 8 support will stop in January 2023.) On the Mac, you can use the three most recent macOS versions, Sierra, High Sierra, and Mojave.
Subscribe or Buy?
One reason you may not have noticed Office 2019 is that Microsoft prefers to publicize its subscription-based office suite Office Home 365, and its business version, instead of pushing you to buy Office 2019. Many corporations, colleges, and government offices prefer what Microsoft calls 'perpetual' products like Office 2019 and its predecessor Office 2016, rather than shelling out annual fees to Microsoft and tying themselves to Microsoft's cloud services.
For most word-processing, spreadsheet, and presentation work, the buy-once Office and the subscription-based Office are effectively the same. That said, Office 365 subscription adds real-time collaboration features (including the excellent Microsoft Teams), high-powered mobile apps, access to cloud-based research and editing tools, and regular infusions of new features every few months.
In contrast, Office 2019 will stay the same—except for monthly security updates and occasional bug fixes—until you decide to upgrade it to a future version a few years from now. Unlike Office 365, Office 2019 doesn't require you to sign in with a Microsoft account unless you want to. Users concerned about privacy are better off ignoring the sign-in button in the title bar of their Office apps altogether. On the downside, Office 2019 doesn't include access to Office's high-powered mobile apps. I discuss additional reasons why some users may prefer the buy-once Office 2019 version to the cutting-edge Office 365 version in a later section.
A Familiar Face
Microsoft introduced the Ribbon interface in Office 2007 and hasn't made any comparably drastic interface changes since. Office 2019 should look familiar to anyone who has used any version from Office 2007 onwards. Simply put, Word 2019 is an attractive, but not a compelling upgrade. If you're happy with Office 2016, think twice before spending hard-earned cash on the new version unless you want or need some of the new version's unique features. Word and Outlook, for example, get a new set of features—called 'Learning Tools'—that make it easy to focus on text. Spreadsheet app Excel gets new functions and charts, including a funnel style and 2D maps, plus enhanced pivot and query tools.
New Features
Presentation powerhouse PowerPoint gets a Morph transition that shows separate objects moving to new locations from one slide to the next—matching Apple's Magic Move feature in Keynote. PowerPoint also gets a Zoom feature that lets you jump to any slide or section in your presentation, without following the traditional linear order—somewhat like the fluid, non-linear presentations pioneered by Prezi, but with a clunkier look and feel.
Word, Excel, and PowerPoint can import graphics in the scalable SVG format widely used on the web—and not yet supported by Keynote or Apple's other office apps. Office apps can also import—with only a few clicks—3D models from the Microsoft-created Remix 3D community website.
A new Insert an Icon item pops up a menu with around five hundred well-designed icons that you can insert in any Word, Excel, or PowerPoint document. They're all black-and-white by default, but you can change the color from a pop-up menu. Word's elegant powerful equation editor now supports LaTeX syntax, with a few variations from the standard syntax—and Microsoft has beefed up Office's online help with complete details of equation syntax and much else, mostly eliminating the frustrations in earlier versions when you clicked on a Help button only to be told that help wasn't available.
The Last Word on Word
A well-hidden Speak feature in Office 2016 has blossomed into the improved Read Aloud tool available from the Review ribbon in Word. It's also available from the new Learning Tools section of the View ribbon. The Learning Tools menu includes options to displaying widely spaced text for easy reading as well as text with dots showing between syllables. For the former option, you can display either just the current line, or one or two lines above and below it, with the rest of the text almost invisible. Alternatively, you can change the background color for legibility or invert the colors (white text on a black background).
Microsoft Word has always outclassed every other word-processor in its range of view options—including draft, web, and distraction-free reading modes—and the Learning Tools build on this strong foundation. On a Mac, oddly, the Learning Tools require an Office 365 subscription, and aren't part of the standalone Office 2019 product, as they are on Windows. The same limitation applies to the freeform Zoom presentation feature in PowerPoint.
Math-tastic
Office has had drawing tools for as long as I can remember, but the 2019 version adds ink features that convert mouse- or pencil-drawn scrawls into geometric shapes like circles or triangles, or that convert hand-written formulas into typographic math. This feature works even with my clumsy attempts to write equations with a trackball, but it's mostly designed for use with a pencil on a tablet, especially a Microsoft Surface model.
Office 2019 enhances digital-pencil support, with pressure- and tilt-sensitivity and the ability to move text by dragging it with a pencil.
Cross-Platform Excellence
Office 2019 is the smoothest, slickest, and most powerful set of office applications ever written, though that doesn't mean it's the best for the way you work. On the plus side, the Office file formats are universal. If you share a Word document or Excel worksheet, anyone can open it on any modern computer, and also on any modern mobile device with the free Office mobile apps installed.
If you use any other office suite—like Apple's iWork apps, the open-source LibreOffice, or Corel WordPerfect Office—you'll almost certainly need to export your files in Office formats before sharing them with anyone else. The same thing applies to online suites like Google Docs. You can share online access to a Google Docs documents by sending a sharing link to anyone, but if you want to share the document itself as a file, you'll have to download it in Word or some other standard format.
Office Strengths
Also on Office's plus side are features and abilities that nothing else can match. Excel handles larger and more complex spreadsheets than any rival. PowerPoint is the only Windows-based presentation app that comes close to matching Apple's Keynote in dazzling transitions and other effects. Word's professional-level features make it easy to limit the find-and-replace feature so that it only finds text formatted with specific fonts or spacing. Word also offers a powerful set of well-integrated drawing tools, so the Windows crowd can use advanced graphics features like the ones that Apple offers with its Pages word-processor for macOS and iOS.
Office Drawbacks
Office Professional Plus 2019 Features
As all long-term users know, Office has some negative aspects. For example, if you prefer to choose how to format your documents (such as the headings and indentations), instead of letting Word decide, you have to turn off a dozen options hidden in Word's auto-correct feature. Microsoft Word stores many default settings in its Normal.dotm template. While advanced users can back up this file and create different versions of it for different purposes, Microsoft doesn't help you figure out where this file is on your hard drive. (It's in a hidden folder in your user folder named AppDataRoamingMicrosoftTemplates.)
Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2019 Key
I'm not the only user who has been frustrated by Word's Master Document feature, which lets you embed separate subdocuments in a container document, while letting you edit the subdocuments as separate files. This feature has a bad history of leaving the contents of subdocuments in a master document instead of keeping them separate. Word 2019 seems to be more reliable with master documents than older versions, but, having been burned in the past, I'm not yet ready to trust this feature when working on a multi-chapter book.
One Note About OneNote
One app you won't see in the Windows version of Office 2019 is a new version of OneNote 2016. Instead of updating the desktop version of OneNote, Office 2019 now uses the modern Microsoft Store version of OneNote that comes preinstalled on Windows 10. OneNote for Windows 10 automatically opens OneNote 2016 notebooks stored in the cloud, but you still need OneNote 2016 if you use notebooks stored on a local PC. OneNote 2016 continues to be a free download from Microsoft. All this applies to Windows only. OneNote on the Mac hasn't changed except for its regular monthly minor updates.
Gta san andreas mods pc cheats. Another new development that will matter to IT departments: Office 2019 installs itself through the efficient click-to-run technology familiar from Office 365, not the traditional full-scale .MSI installer used by most commercial software, including earlier versions of Office.
Office 2019 vs. Office 365
If, like most Windows users, you've put much of your working life into Office, should you buy or rent—buy Office 2019 or subscribe to Office 365? Corporate and government offices that frown on sharing data on Microsoft's servers will choose to buy. Many students and teachers can get Office 2019 either free or at a low price (typically $14.99) through site licenses negotiated by schools and colleges. However, subscription-based Office 365 is the obvious choice for offices that use Microsoft's ecosystem for collaboration and sharing and anyone who prefers to keep documents in the cloud. Office 365 has an optional automatic continuous-save feature for documents stored in the cloud that isn't available in Office 2019 even when you save to Microsoft OneDrive. And, of course, Microsoft 365 lets you edit and collaborate on your cloud-based documents from a desktop machine, mobile device, or web browser.
If, like me, you customize your Office apps by creating macros to perform complex, repetitive tasks, you may encounter gotchas like the one that tripped up my Office 365 version of Word a few months ago. I prefer to use the keyboard-friendly spell-check dialog from older versions of Word instead of the more awkward proofing panel in recent versions. As described on many web postings about this subject, Microsoft made it possible to use the old dialog by default by writing a macro and attaching it to the same key that normally opens the new proofing pane.
For a few months last year, however, a badly designed Office 365 update broke that macro and made it impossible for many users to access the old-style dialog. No one outside Microsoft ever figured out why some users weren't affected. A few months later, Microsoft finally seems to have fixed the problem in Office 365. But users with Office 2016 never encountered the problem at all, because Office 2016 (like Office 2019) doesn't get the kind of regular update that can break existing features.
That problem made me switch to 'perpetual' Office 2016, and now Office 2019, for the Windows machines I use for mission-critical work. On the Mac, I still use Office 365 because Office 2019 for the Mac lacks features built into the subscription-based product, though I don't see any good reason for the different feature sets in Mac and Windows Office 2019.
Office Alternatives
Finally, should you use Office at all, when Google Docs is free for everyone on all platforms, LibreOffice is free for all desktop users, and Apple's gorgeous iWorks apps (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote) are free on the Mac and iOS? For all its minor faults, Office still towers over all alternatives.
Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides is the first choice for anyone who prefers free software and effortless sharing, and for casual users who don't want to keep their documents in files on a desktop computer.
LibreOffice is feature-rich, open-source, and free, and opens legacy documents in more formats than anything else, but after decades of development, it's still clumsy-looking and far too prone to crashing to inspire confidence.
Apple's iWork apps (which are not sold as a combined suite) look dazzling and have unique features like Numbers' tables that can be moved around on an empty canvas, unlike a traditional worksheet that uses only a single grid. But iWork has desktop apps only on Macs, and forces you to export documents if you want to share them outside Apple's ecosystem.
Holi dj mp3 hindi song download. Corel WordPerfect, available only for Windows, offers unparalleled precise control over document formatting and is more convenient than Office for specialized purposes like cleaning up documents created by OCR software, but WordPerfect will always be a niche product.
Still the Champion
You may complain about this or that corner of Microsoft Office, but it's still the most comfortable, familiar, powerful, and reliable set of productivity apps on this or any other planet. If you're happy with Office 365, you don't need Office 2019. If you're happy with Office 2016, you only need Office 2019 if you want its new features. One way or another, you probably want Office on your desktop, and though the 2019 version isn't an absolutely essential upgrade, that's only because the last version has held up so well. Either way, Office 2019 is the best office suite you can buy, and it remains an Editors' Choice.
Microsoft Office 2019
Bottom Line: Microsoft Office remains the most powerful and flexible office suite money can buy, and the locally installed software version trumps even Microsoft's own Office 365 when it comes to stability and its one-time purchase model.
