The latter consists of not only Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint and Word - the four apps in the highest-priced Office for Mac - but also Access, OneNote and Publisher.īecause Microsoft has not disclosed the subscription price for Office 365 Home Premium, it's impossible to tell whether the inclusion of Office for Mac is a good deal for Mac owners. However, Office for Mac 2011 and Office 2013 will not be equivalent in features or even applications.
