Bangalore: Microsoft has announced the launch of Office for Mac 2011, the newest version of its application suite designed for Mac OS X. And analysts have said that it is the best office ever.
Gartner analyst Michael Gartenberg said the new suite is Microsoft's most impressive suite effort to date."This is the best Office ever, not just on the Mac. It brings the Mac version to parity with the Windows version, but it still feels like Mac software, not a Windows port. Mac Office doesn't feel like you walked into your house in the dark and someone rearranged all the furniture."
Office for Mac 2011 will be available in more than 100 countries around the world at the end of October. The suite will come in two editions to purchase at retail - Office for Mac Home and Student 2011 and Office for Mac Home and Business 2011. For better alignment across platforms, the Office 2011 pricing and edition options map closer with Office for the Windows operating system.
Microsoft Office for Mac Home and Student 2011 includes Word for Mac, PowerPoint for Mac, Excel for Mac and Messenger for Mac, and it will be available at a price starting at $119. Business 2011 includes Word for Mac, PowerPoint for Mac, Excel for Mac, Outlook for Mac and Messenger for Mac, and its starting price is $199. And it will be available in 13 languages.
