Description

What are the main features and advantages of Microsoft Office 2021 Standard?

Microsoft Office 2021 Standard is a perpetual desktop suite that delivers the essential Office applications for long-term, stable use on business and professional PCs.

Includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Publisher and OneNote
One-time purchase license instead of ongoing subscription costs
Optimized for classic desktop use with full offline functionality
Modern interface and performance improvements over older Office versions
Designed for organizations that need predictable, change-controlled software

How is Microsoft Office 2021 Standard licensed and who is it for?

Office 2021 Standard is typically sold as a volume license edition aimed at businesses, public institutions and organizations that standardize multiple PCs.

Licensing is usually per device, ideal for managed desktops
Well suited for small, medium and large corporate environments
Easier compliance and asset tracking than mixed retail licenses
Supports standard corporate deployment and imaging practices
Common choice when a cloud subscription is not desired

What is the difference between Microsoft Office 2021 Standard and Microsoft 365?

Office 2021 Standard is a one-time purchase for fixed desktop features, while Microsoft 365 is a subscription that adds cloud services, storage and continuously evolving apps.

Office 2021 Standard: perpetual license, pay once, keep using
Microsoft 365: recurring subscription with ongoing payments
Microsoft 365 includes OneDrive storage and more online services
Microsoft 365 receives new features regularly, 2021 gets only fixes
Office 2021 is ideal for controlled environments, 365 for cloud-first users

What is the difference between Microsoft Office 2021 Standard and Office 2021 Professional Plus?

Both share the same core apps, but Professional Plus adds additional enterprise components and integration features needed in larger, complex environments.

Standard includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Publisher, OneNote
Professional Plus additionally includes applications like Access and Skype for Business (or their successors where applicable)
Professional Plus offers broader enterprise integration and collaboration features
Standard is sufficient for most information workers without advanced database needs
Professional Plus is preferred in environments with heavy data and communication demands

How can I deploy Microsoft Office 2021 Standard in a business environment?

IT departments usually deploy Office 2021 Standard with the Office Deployment Tool and configuration files, integrating it into existing management and imaging processes.

Use configuration XML files to define apps, languages and channels
Integrate setup into software distribution tools like ConfigMgr or Intune
Automate silent installation for many endpoints at once
Apply updates through local sources, WSUS or Microsoft update services
Combine with group policies to standardize settings and security options

How long is Microsoft Office 2021 Standard supported and how are updates delivered?

Office 2021 Standard has a defined mainstream and extended support period during which it receives security and reliability updates but no constant new features.

Fixed support lifecycle with published end-of-support dates
Receives regular security and bug-fix updates from Microsoft
No feature drip like Microsoft 365, reducing unexpected changes
Updates can be centrally managed in corporate networks
After end of support, it continues to run but becomes a security risk

Can Microsoft Office 2021 Standard coexist with other Office versions on the same PC?

Office 2021 Standard can sometimes coexist with older versions, but mixed installations are more complex and not always supported, so a clean migration is usually recommended.

Side-by-side with much older versions often leads to conflicts
Sharing components like Outlook with different versions is problematic
Preferred strategy is uninstalling previous Office before deployment
Test coexistence carefully on pilot systems if truly required
Use different virtual machines or remote sessions to separate versions

What are the system requirements and platform limitations for Microsoft Office 2021 Standard?

Office 2021 Standard is designed for current Windows releases with sufficient CPU, RAM and storage, and it does not support very old operating systems.

Requires a supported, up-to-date version of Windows
Needs a modern processor and adequate memory for smooth performance
Installed locally, so disk space must be planned per device
Graphics acceleration improves performance with complex documents
Mac users need a separate edition rather than this Windows-focused one

Is Microsoft Office 2021 Standard suitable for Remote Desktop or terminal server use?

Office 2021 Standard can be used in Remote Desktop or terminal server scenarios when licensed correctly, but organizations must follow Microsoft’s specific licensing rules.

Check that the chosen edition and license allow shared-server use
Install in shared mode on Remote Desktop Session Host where supported
Size CPU and RAM for multiple concurrent Office sessions
Use group policies to lock down settings for many users
Consider whether a subscription variant better matches multi-user scenarios

Is Microsoft Office 2021 Standard a worthwhile upgrade from Office 2016 or 2019?

For many users, Office 2021 Standard offers a more modern, better performing and better supported suite than 2016, with incremental but useful improvements over 2019.

Improved collaboration capabilities compared to much older versions
Refined interface and performance improvements in core applications
Better file format and cloud service compatibility than legacy releases
Longer support window than Office 2016 installations still in use
Good option for organizations needing one more perpetual generation before considering subscriptions

1. USED SOFTWARE

Used software is available for sale in the European Union as well as in Switzerland according to current jurisdiction provided that the necessary conditions are met. The necessary conditions are as follows:

The software must have been originally placed on the market in the territory of the EU or another EEA contracting state or Switzerland by way of sale with the consent of the rights’ holder.
The license for the software must have been granted in return for the payment of a fee which should enable the rights’ holder to obtain a remuneration corresponding to the economic value of the copy of the software.
The rights’ holder has granted the first buyer the right to use the software permanently (unlimited).
Improvements and updates, which the computer program downloaded by the subsequent purchaser has in comparison with the computer program downloaded by the first purchaser, must be covered by a maintenance contract concluded between the author/right’s holder and the first purchaser.
The original licensee must have rendered his copies unusable.
In addition, the seller must also inform the customer that the purchase of a product key by transmitting a combination of numbers and letters in digital form does not yet constitute a license to use the program legally.

2. OVERVIEW OF THE MOST IMPORTANT LEGAL INFORMATION ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS

There is a lot of legal information about the topic of used software. We are more than happy to answer any questions you may have. You can contact us at any time via welcome(at)keys.express. In the meantime, you can also find a short overview of the most important legal information regarding used software here:

We only offer product keys for the activation of the respective computer programs. This is not yet a license.
The license is formed only from the respective installation and the resulting acceptance of the terms of use. These terms of use regulate the right to use the software between you and the respective manufacturer.
The principle of exhaustion is normally met or the license is "used up" as soon as it has been lawfully placed on the market for the first time. The present offer is software which has been put into circulation for unlimited use in the form of an activatable product key with the possibility of downloading the program. Microsoft or the respective other software provider has received an appropriate remuneration for this.
With us you get access to particularly attractively priced used product keys from volume license agreements, which - from a legal point of view - are to be treated in the same way as parts of volume licenses at the initial purchase.
All brand names and brand logos are registered trademarks, the use of which is used here only for product description - the property right lies with the respective trademark owner.

3. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

For distance contracts concluded by telephone, on the Internet or when ordering from a catalogue, EU law provides for the possibility for consumers to withdraw from the contract for a certain period of time ("right of withdrawal"). A consumer in this sense is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor self-employed. In Switzerland we usually speak of consumers.

Consumers have the right to cancel the contract within fourteen calendar days without giving reasons. The revocation period begins on the day the contract is concluded.

In order to exercise your right of withdrawal from keys.express or keys.discount, you must inform us by means of a clear statement (e.g. a letter, fax or e-mail sent by post) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. For this purpose, you can contact us using the following information:

Phone +423 7989130
Email: welcome@keys.discount

keys.express and keys.discount also provides a template revocation form. In order to comply with the revocation period, it is sufficient to send the notification of the exercise of the right of revocation to Keys Distribution Ltd before the end of the revocation period.

If you revoke this contract, we must reimburse you for all payments which we have received from you for the corresponding order, including delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs which result from the fact that you have chosen a different type of delivery than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within fourteen calendar days from the day on which we receive notification of your revocation of this contract. For this repayment we will usually use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you. In no case will you be charged for this refund.
