Access 2024 (3 Viewers)

[Dave E]

I'm using Office Pro 2010 and thought I might upgrade to a non-subscription MS Office Pro Plus 2024.
Does anyone know if the Access version is a 2024 version and are there many changes since 2010?
For ~£30 it's a steal. Is it?

"For ~£30 it's a steal. Is it?"

And why would you think that?

Is it because the full retail is $179.00 (US), or ~ £133?

Perhaps, when a deal seems like a steal, it really is just that.

I have purchased one or more of these from legitimate sources and have had no issues.

I bought my Office 2021 LTSC at a considerably reduced price vs. outright retail. My source was a Canadian online vendor whom I was able to research (as to reputation). All items were of the appropriate "vintage" and I've had no problems at all. Do a little up-front diligence and you might find that the company is legitimate.

The key is that you will be buying an LTSC licensed copy, with all the rights and restrictions that entails. Specifically, it is my understanding that LTSC licenses are NOT intended to be resold at retail. They are sold to an organization, to be used within that organization.

You may interpret it differently, but I can't see any loophole that allows a vendor to purchase an LTSC license and then resell individual licenses to the general public under that agreement.
