Office 2024 Standard is sold as a perpetual, one-time purchase volume license rather than a recurring Microsoft 365 subscription.
License remains valid after activation with no time limit
No monthly or yearly Microsoft 365 subscription fees required
Designed for traditional volume licensing and compliance needs
Ideal where budgeting favours one-off capex over recurring opex
It requires a supported current Windows version and modern 64-bit hardware for reliable performance.
Runs on supported, up-to-date editions of Windows 10 and Windows 11
Requires a 64-bit CPU and at least 4 GB RAM
Needs sufficient free disk space for apps and updates
Integrates with standard Windows security and management tools
It follows Microsoft’s fixed lifecycle model, receiving security and reliability updates for several years after release.
Provides a defined multi-year support window for businesses
Regular security and bug-fix updates throughout the lifecycle
No constant feature churn, reducing user retraining effort
Suited to environments with strict change and update control
Standard covers the core apps, while Professional Plus adds extra tools and is better suited to larger or more demanding deployments.
Both editions include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote
Standard focuses on everyday office desktops and mainstream needs
Professional Plus adds additional apps such as Access for databases
Professional Plus is typically preferred for terminal servers and RDS
Standard is simpler and often more cost-effective for typical offices
Office 2024 Standard is a fixed-feature perpetual suite, whereas Microsoft 365 is a subscription with continuous feature updates and deeper cloud integration.
Office 2024 Standard: one-time purchase with a stable feature set
Microsoft 365: recurring subscription with frequent new capabilities
Office 2024 Standard ideal for offline, regulated or locked-down setups
Microsoft 365 better for cloud-first collaboration and rapid innovation
Choice depends on change tolerance, budgeting model and cloud strategy

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.
