 Echoing other complaints February 23, 2008

I've used MS Word since the mid-90s, and this is like a slap in the face from Microsoft. I can't imagine they tested this with anyone not involved in its development. Everything one needs and has learned to access in earlier versions has been spread to hell and back. It does auto-formatting contortions a python would be proud of. I had to set up a task bar with all the old icons...heck, I can't even describe the struggles I'm having. I got this suite on the cheap (educator's discount), and am going back to using Open Office, which I had installed on my new machine to tide me over till I got MS Office. Microsoft, for God's sake, stop changing stuff simply for the sake of change, and before you foist another such abomination on the public, take a few users of old versions and have them give it a run...and I mean average users--the kind who don't need or want every damn cutesy thing you can come up with.
 I needed it and I'm glad I got it here! February 14, 2008

I like the new versions very much. I had to get this and I'm glad I got it here. So far, so good. Fast shipping, too.

 Nice new features, but it is slow February 9, 2008

I've been using Microsoft Excel since 1988 (Mac version) and have used every Windows version of Office (Outlook, Word, Excel) since 1993. I purchased Office 2007 Pro for a class I'm taking rather than for work where we still use 2003.
Like anything new, it takes time to learn what has changed. Each time I see something new, I think "what was wrong with the old way?" then I try it once or twice and think "man wish I had had that when..."
Negatives:
SLOW!!!!!! I have found 2007 to be very, very SLOW. And I'm using a P4 3Ghz with 1GB RAM and Windows XP -- which should be plenty for an office app. I would say Outlook is the worst, just changing from the inbox to sent items can take almost a minute. Also, when browsing from within the Save As or Open windows, is horrible -- maybe if I had Vista it would be different, but in XP I get a scrolling green/white bar while it thinks about the new folder, then it freezes for 30 seconds, then I get the folder I wanted -- change to another folder and it goes through its thinking process all over again.
Where did it go? They have totally reworked the menu bar. The Edit menu is gone, and the things that used to be in it are spread across multiple menus. The toolbars as you know it are gone too, they change as you select different menus. Makes for a lot of bouncing around to get things done.
Positives:
They have added some nifty features that make what used to be four or five separate steps into one. Styles in Work are much easier, as are citations, end notes, and footnotes (for students THIS IS HUGE). I wrote a term paper last semester with 2003, if I had had 2007 it could have saved me over 15 hours or work in formatting alone.
In Excel, the Formulas menu and toolbar is great. If you work a lot with formulas, but not so much as to have them memorized, this is a great addition.
If you do a lot of data analysis, especially with data cubes from MS SQL 2007, then you have to have Excel 2007.
The Emperor's New Clothes February 3, 2008

It's really very simple. Microsoft is changing Office for change's sake. The last version did everything I needed it to. Now, with their new interface, I have to hunt to do something as simple as justifying my margins. It has not improved my life, and it has decreased my productivity. Of course, our IT guys think I'm a Luddite for not wanting the latest and greatest, but this is clearly an example of more being less. The Emperor is naked.
