A note on "basic vs personal" and other tiers

On microsoft 365 basic vs personal: Microsoft also offers a low-cost "Basic" tier that includes extra cloud storage and web/mobile apps but not the full desktop Office apps. Personal is the step up that includes the full desktop apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook) — which is what most buyers actually want. The plans we stock focus on the versions that include the full desktop apps, so you get the complete Office experience.

Subscription vs one-time purchase

These are subscriptions — always the latest features, across multiple devices, renewed over time. If you'd rather own a fixed version of Office once with no renewal, a perpetual license (like Office 2021 or 2024) is the alternative. Choose a Microsoft 365 subscription for always-updated apps, cloud storage and multi-device coverage; choose perpetual if you want to buy once and own it.
