This year sees the arrival of Office 2011 Mac, and it has been garnering quite favorable reviews around the Internet and in off-line publications. Microsoft is aimed to increase its compatibility quotient and made it more and more user-friendly for Mac users. No longer will the program seem completely out of place on a Mac machine. So therefore, Mac users can get the needed power from Microsoft Office without giving up the needed streamlining capabilities that this type of software would need. One of the biggest noticeable changes is the increase in speed. Previous versions of Mac Office 2011 were a bit clunky and slow. Menus would open up slowly and everything was a bit too complicated to access. Mac users want quick access to all the features in an elegant and easy to use format. This is one of the main improvements of the new program.
There are two versions of Mac office 2011 with the students and business versions being available. The only difference being that the business version has Microsoft outlook 2011 included. This powerful e-mail software replaces Mac’s traditional entourage program and has a lot more powerful features that people in business can use.
One of the main additions to the Microsoft word program for 2011 is the inclusion of the ability to work on one document with multiple users. By uploading the document to Microsoft’s cloud server, multiple users can correct and edit documents on-the-fly. This is incredibly useful new feature for people who work in offices that have to work on projects in groups.
Another fantastic addition to the program are dynamic layers. This presents Word documents and PowerPoint presentations in a 3-D visual style that allows you to elegantly and easily organize your projects. The dynamic layers is a clear indication that Microsoft is embracing Mac’s traditionally user-friendly approach.
