Office 2024 vs. Microsoft 365 — What is the Difference?
Office Home and Business 2024 is a one-time purchase. You pay once and use the software indefinitely on one device. There are no subscription fees, but you will not receive new feature updates or future version upgrades. Security and stability updates are included through October 2029.
Microsoft 365 is a subscription with annual fees but includes the latest feature updates, Copilot AI, 1 TB of OneDrive storage, and installation on multiple devices. If you prefer to own your software outright with no ongoing costs, Office 2024 is the right choice.

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.
What is the difference between Office 2024 and Microsoft 365?
Office 2024 is a one-time purchase for one device with no subscription fees. You get the apps as they are today, with security updates only — 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 without recurring costs, Office 2024 is the right choice.
Does Office 2024 include Copilot AI?
No. Copilot AI features require a Microsoft 365 subscription. Office Home and Business 2024 is the classic, standalone Office suite without AI features. If Copilot is important to you, consider Microsoft 365 Personal or Family — both available at ITFactory.ca.
Does it work on both PC and Mac?
Yes. Office Home and Business 2024 is available for both Windows (Windows 10 and Windows 11) and macOS. Your license covers one device — either a PC or a Mac. Note that the Access application is not available on Mac; all other apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote) are fully supported on both platforms.
Can I use this for business purposes?
Yes. The Home and Business edition includes commercial use rights, meaning you can use the software for business and work purposes. This distinguishes it from the Home and Student edition, which is licensed for personal and educational use only.
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.
