Office Home 2024 vs. Office Home and Business 2024
Office Home 2024 includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. It is licensed for personal and educational use only — not for commercial or business purposes. This is the lower-cost option for students and families who do not need Outlook or business use rights.
Office Home and Business 2024 adds Microsoft Outlook and includes commercial use rights, making it suitable for professionals and small businesses. If you need a desktop email client or plan to use Office for work, the Home and Business edition is the right choice — also available at ITFactory.ca.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a one-time purchase or a subscription?
This is a one-time perpetual purchase. You pay once and own the software permanently on one PC or Mac. There are no monthly or annual renewal fees. Security and stability updates are included through October 2029.
Does Office Home 2024 include Outlook?
No. Office Home 2024 includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote only. If you need Microsoft Outlook for desktop email management, the Office Home and Business 2024 edition includes Outlook and is also available at ITFactory.ca.
Can I use this for work or business purposes?
No. Office Home 2024 is licensed for personal and educational use only. If you need to use Office for commercial or business purposes, you will need the Office Home and Business 2024 edition, which includes commercial use rights and Microsoft Outlook.
What is the difference between Office 2024 and Microsoft 365?
Office Home 2024 is a one-time purchase for one device with no subscription fees. You get the apps as they are today with security updates, but no new features or version upgrades. Microsoft 365 is an annual subscription that includes the latest features, Copilot AI, 1 TB of OneDrive storage, and installation on multiple devices. If you want to own your software outright with no ongoing costs, Office 2024 is the right choice.
Does Office Home 2024 include Copilot AI?
No. Copilot AI features are only available with a Microsoft 365 subscription. Office Home 2024 is the classic standalone Office suite. If Copilot is important to you, Microsoft 365 Personal and Family are both available at ITFactory.ca.
Does it work on Mac?
Yes. Office Home 2024 is available for both Windows (Windows 10 and Windows 11) and macOS. Your license covers one device — either a PC or a Mac. All four apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote) are fully supported on both platforms.
How do I receive and activate my software?
After purchase, you will receive your Microsoft Office product key by email within minutes. Visit office.com/setup, sign in with your Microsoft account, enter the product key, and follow the prompts to download and install. An internet connection is required for the initial installation only — the apps work fully offline after setup.
