Good for beginners not for medium or expert users
Like: The product works fine with nice features. Outlook is very stable.
Dislike: Excel is good if you use small files. Once your file size becomes in MBs you will face a lot of trouble, very slow processes (you can wait 3-4 sec. for the typed text appear in the cell or the filter is cleared!) and several crashes.
Transferring the exact same file to an old pc and made every thing work smooth!
I have late 2012 MacBook Pro with CI7 and 8G RAM.

A reluctant user
Of all the products I have loaded on my Power Book, this is the product that falls over the most. I was typing the word 'I've' int o Outlook and Outlook wants to uppercase the the 'V', the back space stops working at the same time. There is no intuitive way of deleting mails in outlook without physically opening them. When creating a Powerpoint Chart, that links to Excel, I found the columns in the speadsheet, after I dragged for autocopy, the cell couldn't be edited afterwards and changed back to the original values. I'm getting bored of the prompt asking me to notifying the vendor of a crash. Fundamentally, I haven't put this software on my machine out of choice, it's a business necessity. Roll on the day when Microsoft isn't the business standard office suite. With the quality of this software, hopefully it won't be that long! …

Its Good!
I have been using this version for about 6 months now. Never faced any problems with this version of office on my Macbook Pro Reti na 2012. However when the files do get large it tends to slow down, and I hope Microsoft fixes this problem soon. …

Not Friendly
I purchased MS Office for business use. The program does not play nice with the Mac OS. Very buggy. It freezes almost daily as I stress the limits of the program. If you plan on using Excel to open large data files, don't bother. It will frustrate you more than anything. I've had better luck with Open Office. …

Unfotunately stuck with it
I'm running MS Office on OS X10.7.5 3.1GHz Core i5 with 4GB RAM.
Outlook is OK, but you do not have message tracking flags avai lable anymore. Managing contacts and distribution lists can drive you up the walls.
Excel is almost as bad with large files as Open Office spreadsheet app. Lots of performance and memory issues. Sometimes it fails to save the changes, giving "not enough memory" error. The funny thing is that, I have some other spreadsheets open simultaneously and they can be saved without problems. The problem does not seem to depend on the size of the file either.
With Word I have not had major problems. Although sometimes it refuses to open any file saying something like the format is incorrect or the file is read only. Then I just quit Word completely, re-start it and everything is OK once again. Quality programming, huh?
Powerpoint I use very little, so can't really say anything about it.
The Sync Daemon is irritating, it needs to killed manually every time any there is an upgrade to Office …- Written by Mika M from Somero

GARBAGE
Absolute GARBAGE. Useless. You will constantly be fighting this program on a Mac.
As a side, I have been trying to fight this for almost a year...so this isn't just being reactive. It is absolutely useless garbage. I am actually considering dropping the Mac all together...very frustrating.
Excel is FULL of bugs and looks nothing like any version before.
Word is completely different and gives me a headache...everything has to be "cute" on a Mac
Powerpoint is completely useless.
Additionally, if you plan to migrate files over from a non-Mac...think again. Really just a shame to be honest. …- Written by Jeff W from Scottsdale
