In the following article, we describe the details of Office 2019 and outline the activation and installation processes for this widely used and well-known office software.

Key Features of Microsoft Office 2019

Office is the world’s best-known business productivity suite, developed by Microsoft, a leading software company. First launched in 1989, Office has become the most popular and globally used tool for creating, managing, and sharing documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and more.

 The Office suite is designed to meet the needs of individual users, businesses, and institutions of various sizes, offering a wide range of applications and services. Some of the main applications include:

• Word: an advanced word processing application that allows you to create professional documents with advanced formatting features, collaborative editing, and support for images and graphics.
• Excel: a powerful spreadsheet with advanced data analysis features, dynamic charts, visualization tools, and complex formulas for data processing.
• PowerPoint: a presentation application that offers tools for creating engaging presentations with slides, transitions, animations, and multimedia support.
• Outlook: an email client and personal organizer with advanced email, calendar, contacts, and task management features.
• OneNote: a digital note-making app that allows you to organize ideas, notes, images, and information intuitively.
• Publisher: a desktop publishing tool that facilitates the creation of professional publications such as brochures, flyers, and newsletters.
• Access: a database management application for creating and managing desktop databases with advanced features.
• Skype for Business: a business communications platform offering instant messaging, audio/video calls, and online conferencing.
• InfoPath: a form creation and business information management tool.
• Microsoft Teams: although not included in Office Professional Plus for the full version, it is often integrated to enable real-time collaboration, communication, and file sharing among team members.

Understanding Microsoft Office 2019

Unlike Office 365, which is subscription-based and receives regular updates, Office 2019 is a one-time purchase with no ongoing subscription fees. This makes it an attractive option for users who prefer to own their software outright and don’t require the constant updates provided by Office 365.

If you’re interested in this kind of software, here are some essential characteristics you must keep in mind.

• Licensing and cost: Office Professional Plus is generally available through volume licensing for businesses. Costs may vary by license type, edition, and need. Remember that the Professional Plus version is not usable for mobile devices such as tablets, iPads, iPhones, or Android Phones nor for online web use at www.office.com, but is a license that can be installed and used even without an internet network (after activation) on PCs only.
• System Requirements: make sure your systems meet the requirements to run Office Professional Plus 2019 efficiently.
• Updates: Office 2019 is a “single-payer” version and does not include ongoing updates like Office 365. To get new features, you may need to upgrade to later versions in the future.
• Integration with cloud services: if you want to take full advantage of cloud collaboration and storage features, you might consider transitioning to Microsoft 365 (the evolution of Office 365), which offers greater integration with Microsoft’s cloud services.

   

Before purchasing and implementing Office Professional Plus 2019, it is advisable to carefully assess your specific needs for daily use.

You might also consider more updated editions such as Office Professional Plus 2021.

To obtain Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2019, you must purchase a legitimate license. Here are some general steps you can follow:

1. Purchasing through Microsoft’s website: visit Microsoft’s official website or its online store. Navigate to the home or business product section, depending on your needs. Search for the Office Professional Plus 2019 version and proceed to purchase.
2. Purchase through authorized resellers: you can purchase Office Professional Plus 2019 through authorized Microsoft software resellers. Be sure to choose reliable and trusted vendors to avoid authenticity or security issues.
3. Purchase through Microsoft partners: some companies work as Microsoft partners and offer software solutions to customers. You can consider purchasing from these partners to receive additional support or customized services.

Installation Process

If the product you purchased (as in most cases) is a digital one, you will need to log in to the manufacturer’s official platform to redeem your license via the product key recognition and start downloading directly from Microsoft. To enter the product activation key, log in with your personal Microsoft profile (email address) or create one for free on the relevant page, following the short and simple directions.

 Once you have logged in and entered the product key, follow the steps for geographic localization and choice of default language (which can still be changed in the program), and then click on Confirm to be able to download your applications.

After downloading the installation package, ensure you have a stable Internet connection and meet the necessary installation requirements. Open the content to proceed to the actual installation (setup.exe), then double-click the relevant content and start the wizard.

Once the Office installation is complete, the product will allocate device resources between the various applications.

Open any of the applications and follow the Activation via network (recommended) option for network confirmation of regular license activation.
