Despite the emergence of more affordable competitors, Microsoft Office has 4.6 stars out of five online and has stayed on top of the office software food chain. That’s because it keeps getting better and businesses prefer Office because it can do so much.

But if you’re looking to get Office for a personal computer to help you start a business, now’s a great time to invest. During our Labor Day sale, you can get a lifetime license to Microsoft Office for Mac or Windows for just $34.97 through 8/31.
