What are the main benefits of Microsoft Office 2024 Professional Plus?

One-time purchase – No recurring subscription tied to the install.
Locked feature set – Apps stay stable; no surprise UI changes.
Local Access database – Build .accdb files without a cloud account.
VBA macros – Existing Excel and Word automations keep working.
Offline workflow – Works on isolated or restricted-network machines.

Full overview of what the one-time-purchase Office 2024 release covers and why it differs from the subscription model.

What does Microsoft Office 2024 Professional Plus do?

It installs the classic Windows desktop versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, and Access on a single PC. The suite handles document creation, spreadsheet modeling with the new dynamic array chart references and 14 new text/array functions in Excel 2024, slide design with PowerPoint's cameo feature, and local Access database files. Everything runs locally without Microsoft 365 cloud sync. Project and Visio are sold separately and are not part of this package.

Who is Microsoft Office 2024 Professional Plus best suited for?

It fits organizations and power users who need Access and a perpetual offline Office install on Windows. The included Access desktop database is the main reason to choose Professional Plus over Office Home & Business or Standard — if your workflow depends on .accdb files, Access reports, or VBA-driven forms, this is the only 2024 perpetual edition that ships it. Teams and Microsoft 365 cloud services are not part of the package, so it is not the right pick for organizations that depend on Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, or co-authoring in OneDrive.

How does it compare to other Office 2024 editions?

Professional Plus is the only 2024 perpetual edition that includes Access on Windows. Office Home 2024 ships only Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote; Office Home & Business 2024 adds Outlook; Office Standard 2024 adds Publisher (where licensed) but no Access. None of these editions include Microsoft Teams or OneDrive cloud services. The table below summarizes which classic desktop apps each edition installs.

What technical limitations or missing features should buyers know?

Microsoft Publisher is not included — Publisher has been retired by Microsoft and will no longer be supported after October 2026. Microsoft Teams is not preinstalled with Office 2024 and must be downloaded separately if needed. Office 2024 does not include Microsoft 365 cloud services such as Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, or 1 TB OneDrive storage, and it does not receive feature updates after launch. The "Publish to Power BI" feature has also been removed from Excel 2024; existing workbooks can still be uploaded from Power BI workspaces instead.

How is this different from Microsoft 365?

Office 2024 Professional Plus is a one-time purchase that stays locked to its 2024 feature set, while Microsoft 365 is a subscription that adds Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, OneDrive storage, Microsoft Loop, Defender threat protection, and continuous feature updates. If your work depends on real-time co-authoring through OneDrive or hosted Exchange mailboxes, those features only exist in Microsoft 365. If you want a stable, offline-capable Office install that does not change over time, the perpetual 2024 release is the right fit.

Why Office 2024 is the only sensible decision — and why Microsoft 365 is simply not an option
Side-by-side reasoning on choosing the Office 2024 perpetual release over a Microsoft 365 subscription.

What should users check before choosing this edition?

Confirm Windows compatibility first: Office 2024 supports Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows 11 LTSC 2024, Windows 10 LTSC 2021/2019, Windows Server 2022, and Windows Server 2025. Confirm you actually need Microsoft Access — it is the main reason to pick Professional Plus over Home & Business 2024. If you rely on Publisher .pub files, plan for migration since Publisher is not in any 2024 edition and Microsoft is retiring it in October 2026. On macOS, note that Access is not available, so the Professional Plus benefit does not extend to Mac installations.

Legal Information About Our Products

keys.express and keys.discount are online platforms for product keys. The product keys available in our shops for Windows and other software are inexpensive, secure, legal and come with an activation guarantee.

Below you will find the most important legal information about our products.

Unused and Non-Activated Product Keys

We offer exclusively unused and non-activated product keys. The keys have never been redeemed for activation and are fully available to the purchaser for the first-time activation of the respective product. A key that has already been redeemed could no longer be used for a new activation and is therefore not offered by us.

Trading in these product keys is permissible in the European Union and in Switzerland under current case law, provided that the necessary conditions are met. These conditions are as follows:

• The software must originally have been placed on the market with the consent of the rightholder within the territory of the EU, another contracting state of the EEA, or Switzerland by way of sale.
• The license for the software must have been granted in return for the payment of a fee intended to enable the rightholder to obtain remuneration corresponding to the economic value of the copy of the software.
• The rightholder must have granted the first acquirer the right to use the software permanently (for an unlimited period).
• Any improvements and updates that the subsequently downloaded computer program has compared to the originally downloaded one must be covered by a maintenance agreement concluded between the rightholder and the first acquirer.
• The original licensee must have made their own copies unusable.

This trade is legally permissible because the underlying license was already placed on the market with the consent of the rightholder within the EU/EEA or Switzerland in return for appropriate remuneration. As a result, the so-called principle of exhaustion has taken effect, which permits the resale of individual product keys — in particular those originating from volume license agreements. Microsoft or the respective software provider has already received appropriate remuneration for this.

keys.express and keys.discount ensure that the aforementioned conditions are met and that the lawful use of the software is guaranteed. The requirements arising from European legislation are also observed in Switzerland.

Important note: The acquisition of a product key through the transmission of a combination of numbers and letters in digital form does not, in itself, constitute a license for the lawful use of the program. The license only arises from the respective installation and the associated acceptance of the manufacturer's terms of use.

Overview of the Most Important Legal Information

• We offer unused, non-activated product keys for the activation of the respective computer programs. The key alone is not yet a license.
• The license only arises from the respective installation and the resulting acceptance of the terms of use. These terms of use govern the right to use the software between you and the respective manufacturer.
• The principle of exhaustion has, as a rule, taken effect — i.e. the license is "used up" — as soon as it was lawfully placed on the market for the first time. The products concerned are software placed on the market for unlimited-time use in the form of an activatable product key with the option to download the program. Microsoft or the respective software provider has received appropriate remuneration for this.
• You gain access to particularly attractively priced product keys from volume license agreements, which are to be treated legally in the same way as parts of volume licenses upon first acquisition.
• The software itself is always the same original software that is also obtained through official download channels or manufacturer sources. You are therefore not paying for a different or inferior version, but for a valid activation key or a corresponding license.
• All brand names and brand logos are registered trademarks, whose use here serves solely for product description — the ownership rights lie with the respective trademark holder.
