 Office 2007 can bite my shiny metal... November 2, 2007
15 out of 19 found this review helpful
I normally only review music and movies, but this software is so bad I just had to warn others.
I recently got a new machine with Office 2007 on it, and as much as I loved 2003, I figure I'd give 2007 my best shot. Well folks, after a month of using it, I'm putting 2003 back on with the 2007 compatibility upgrade, and kicking this to the curb.
Office 2007 is a MAJOR step backwords in terms of ease and usability, and a big steaming pile of junk. Gone is the Toolbar, now replaced by the inane "Ribbon". I can click back and forth all day long without finding the menu option I want. Customize it? Yeah, right.
Tasks that used to be so simple, such as Edit -> Paste Special... I give up, where is it? I even struggled to find "Save As", and had to go to Google to find out.
Excel doesn't fare much better -- I still haven't found out how to pull up the Drawing toolbar and cursor like in 2003, and frankly, I don't care anymore.
Whenever the inevitable Office 2010 or 2015 comes out, hopefully Microsoft will learn from their mistakes, and go back to the old menu system. I know I have.
Stay away from this disaster October 28, 2007

Sorry Microsoft, but your "ribbon" user interface is the most retarded upgrade feature ever. It renders all your Office applications useless. I have no interest spending hours to learn a completely different UI and to recustomize the toolbar all over again (I'm not even sure if it's even possible to customize the "ribbon"). The ribbon is ugly and WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY too big.
My advice: try to avoid upgrading for as long as possible.

I downloaded the trial version of Office Professional 2007 first, I mainly use MS Word, my old 2003 documents opened up great and I have more options now. I have saved as Office 2003 and opened at work with 2003 and everything is the same.
With Excel there are a few things to get used to, but as with alot of major changes in new releases this was expected
I then downloaded the MS Office Ultimate 2007, and I like the features although I dont realy have a use for OneNote, and Groove.
Overall I feel this is a more user friendly user interface, I talked to some friends and they dont like the changes made, but they admit it is more "I am used to the old" "Why change?".
I use Open Office and MS office, each one has its own perks.
To me it is like getting used to a new car, the size, the functions, where the controls are. The more you use them the more at home you are with them.
Overall a very good product, although over priced. Open Office=free.
Horrible, just horrible October 27, 2007

I have been using Office for around 10years now. I was very excited to get the newest version; Excel's added size was my biggest seller. However, after buying this version, I hate it, absolutely hate it. The menus are all gone, now it's a Ribbon. I build custom Excel and Access programs, with custom menus. You can no longer change the menus, all custom items are added to the Add Ins tab. Finding simple age old functions is next to impossible. I've had to use the Help feature so much just to figure out how to do the simplest things and where they are now located. I do miss the Office Assistant as well. Many will say it was a waste of space, but I personally enjoyed it. All the new file types are not backwards compatible. I can't create any file and then take it to my work computer and open it with 2003. All my old files (pre 2007) act funny when opened with 2007. For example, Excel creates shadow like images of my data and starts putting it all over the spreadsheet. But if you do an Alt + Tab it clears for about 5 min and then starts all over again. I've had nothing but trouble with this software. This is by far worse than Office 97 ever was and I hated it. Access is missing features I was very used to in 2003. Certain things can only be done in VB now. Word's Mail Merge took me 3 hours to finally get it to import my list for labels. Using 2003, it was done in 3 min. If you want a good office suite, buy 2003, stay away from this garbage. I've since uninstalled 2007 completely and went back to 2003.
I want my menus back! October 27, 2007

For people who have used Microsoft Office for the past 10 years, Office 2007 is hellish to use. On their Office Web-Site, Microsoft has put an animation that users may use to locate items of basic functionality in Office 2007. Click the menu item in an Office 2003 menu (menu - hmmm now that's interesting) - and an animation will show you where to find it in 2007. The fact that this is even necessary should tell you somthing. I don't want to spend hours learning a product I have used for the past 10 years - I have work to do.
This product was not released to the public but rather inflicted on the public. I cannot in any shape, form or fashion recommend Office 2007 or Vista. These products are total assaults on productivity.
