The lightest version of Microsoft Office for home and school work
Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student is a special version of the popular office suite specially developed especially for household tasks and school projects. It’s a guarantee of reliability and performance. It’s a classic alternative to other top products like Google Drive or WPS Office 2016 Business.
Reliable and Affordable
Being the cheapest of all three editions, Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student is also the smallest one. It only includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote – unlike the Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Business edition, with five apps, or the Microsoft Office 2010 Professional Plus pack, which features the full collection. However, these four apps are more than enough to complete school assignments and take care of household projects – such as creating and maintaining a domestic budget.
As regards with appearance, the four apps in Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student keep the ribbon interface – in a clear, almost minimalist style – but the Office button has been renamed to “File” and now shows a different pane. It includes direct access to all document-related tasks, and also shows detailed information about the document you’re currently working on.
Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student has pretty much the same features we saw in the Technical Preview, and in other Office editions as well. The context menu in Word, for example, has been greatly improved and lets you see changes in real time as you browse through the different options. You can now add videos to your PowerPoint presentations, and insert small color charts inside cells in Excel spreadsheets. There are also tools to translate text, take and use screenshots, and apply special effects to the images you use in your documents. What’s more, Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student now lets you save your documents on SkyDrive and share them online in just two clicks.
Fast, efficient and user friendly
Regarding performance, Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student seems to be quite fast and light on system resources. There’s a significant improvement in the time the suite apps take to launch, and how they behave when working on your documents.
In all, Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student is an excellent productivity suite with great new features that makes it easier and more comfortable to use.
