As you saw in the tables above, iPad Office is lacking many of the features of WinOffice and MacOffice, so I also have Parallels Access on my iPad which lets me access and run the full featured versions of any Office suite (or any other application) on my computers and use them with natural iPad gestures.

WinOffice 2013 is installed in a Windows 7 virtual machine (VM) (under Parallels Desktop for Mac Pro Edition) on my MacBook Pro.

MacOutlook 2016 came out long before the entire MacOffice 2016 suite, and because of the vastly improved performance of MacOutlook 2016, I use it as my main email client, instead of MacOutlook 2011.

MacOffice 2011 is my main productivity suite and is installed on my El Capitan MacBook Pro.

(You can download a free trial of Parallels Desktop for Mac here. Because I have different versions of Windows running on my Mac, I can also run different versions of WinOffice on my Mac and have everything I need on one computer. Since I have Parallels Desktop for Mac Pro Edition on my Mac, I can run any version of Windows without rebooting. With a single Office 365 Home subscription, you get five installs of the Office suite and you can pick which versions make up this set of five. Having all the versions of Office at your fingertips used to be rather hard to setup, not to mention very expensive. Yet another task might be best suited to WinPPT 2013 because it needs an Office extension not available in other Office suites. Another task might be suited to WinPPT because of the Animation Painter, which is not in any MacPPT version.

One task might be particularly well suited to MacWord 2011 because Publishing Layout View-a feature only in that one Word version-will make this task easy. Because of this background, I am often able to pick just the right Office app that will make a given task the easiest to do. I worked on the MacOffice team at Microsoft for several years, and at that time I also worked closely with colleagues on the WinOffice teams.

So, which do I use? The short answer is that I use all of them. I wasn’t surprised to learn that non-contiguous selections were not supported in iPad Word or iPad Excel, but I was astonished and very disappointed to learn that multiple selections were not supported in iPad PowerPoint. Here are the five tables ( click on each thumbnail for an enlarged view): Table 1: Suite-wide differencesįigure 4: Multiple selections in MacPowerPoint 2011. In addition, I will describe my personal Office setup. Hopefully, this will assist you in choosing the best version/edition for your use. I am listing the differences because listing the similarities would take much too much room-the suites are that identical. Note that because the tables lists differences, no row of the table will be all checkmarks (since this would mean that all the suites had this feature, and thus this wasn’t a difference) nor will any row be all “X”s (since this would mean that no suite had this feature, and thus it isn’t a difference either). The vast bulk of the content in this post is in the following five tables, which list the differences I found.

Office 2013 for Windows (“WinOffice 2013”).

Office 2016 for Windows (“WinOffice 2016”).

This blog post will enumerate most of the differences between the following suites and their apps: While Microsoft produces all of these suites and the suites have a very high degree of similar functionality and visual fidelity, they are not identical, and no single suite has all the features of the entire group. Together with Parallels Desktop and Parallels Access, the Apple user can access just about any of these versions/editions on each of their hardware platforms. Microsoft Office remains the gold standard of productivity suites, but there are several different versions/editions of Office available for users of Apple hardware.
