Does Basic Microsoft 365 offer Excel only? That is all I need.

Question

I need Excel. Does Basic Microsoft 365 offer Excel only?

Answer 1

Microsoft 365 Business Basic does not offer Excel only; it includes access to several Microsoft 365 apps for the web, including Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. Therefore, while you will have access to Excel, it is part of a broader suite of applications available in the Basic plan.

Answer 3

Hello

Microsoft 365 Basic doesn't come with the "desktop version" of Office apps, like Excel, Word, Powerpoint, etc. It is only for 100GB of OneDrive storage. But if you can use the Office apps for free via web browser https://www.office.com

If OneDrive storage is not important to you, perhaps you can consider the one-time purchase of Office Home 2024, it is not a subscription so you don't have to pay every month. And then you have the desktop version of apps. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/buy/compare-all-microsoft-365-products-b
