You can get a lifetime license to Microsoft Office 2019 at a crazy discount right now
TL;DR: Through 27 October, Mashable readers can get a lifetime device license to Microsoft Office 2019 for Windows or Mac for only £19.32 (reg. £177.18).
Whether you're starting a new semester or bringing your work home with you, it's important to have reliable software for basic productivity on your computer. That might mean getting a good data organiser, a simple and efficient word processor, or just a good email app.
If you've been using Microsoft 365 to accomplish all of that, you might be paying more than you need to. Sure, it does give you the latest version of some Microsoft apps, but the subscription fees aren't cheap. A low-cost alternative is to get the 2019 version of Microsoft Office for Windows or Mac and get many of the same apps for life. The 2019 version typically costs £177.18, but through 27 October, Mashable readers can get it for a one-time purchase of £19.32.
Apps without a subscription fee
If you've been using Microsoft 365, the apps in this suite might look a little familiar. While they may be the newest versions, they're still ready to go whether you need to write up an essay for school, organise a dataset for work, or just tidy up your inbox.
There are some minor differences between the Mac and Windows versions of Microsoft Office 2019. Mac users get Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, and Teams Classic. Windows users get the same apps, but instead of Teams Classic, they get Publisher and Access.
For both software bundles, you can install each app on one computer once for life. That means if a student installs them before their first year of uni, they could graduate without ever needing to drop another pound on Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint.
Paying monthly for software you'll always need is like adding a subscription fee to your own productivity.
This is a limited-time offer from the Mashable Shop, and you only have until 27 October to purchase your device license. So, get a shift on and buy Microsoft Office 2019 (for Mac or Windows) while it's available for £19.32 (reg. £177.18), a whopping 89% discount for Mashable readers.
