Same as the previous deal but got an email today that confirmed that Office 2016 is now available on Mac + PC for $15 each. Handy for those that have some Mac users in the house like myself. Previously there was some debate over which version of Mac Office was available.

Like previously, you go to the deal URL and provide your work email to check whether you are eligible. Even if you do not know your "Program Code," you can still proceed. Can confirm I was eligible from previous deal and checkout was a breeze.

EDIT: Just updated title as I realised Visio Pro and Project Pro are also available in the same link.

    Anyone tested whether it gives you 2x Mac licences, like you get 2x PC licences?

    • oldmate78 on 23/11/2016 - 12:16

      The product checkout did say 2 licences, but I've got my PC one on at least 3 different machines now

    • Smigit on 23/11/2016 - 12:24

      FAQ suggests both are for one license, and that it's $15 each you aren't getting both for the price of one. http://www.microsofthup.com/hupau/faq.aspx?culture=en-AU#faq…

      On how many computers can I install my Office product?

      Employees can download and install their Office product on one device

      Hopefully it actually is more.

      • teasatotalling on 23/11/2016 - 12:38

        Yes, but for $15 you get 2 licences with 2 unique codes for PC
        I was wondering whether they have done the same for Mac

        • padman on 23/11/2016 - 12:54

          How did you get 2 codes? I only got one.

        • Smigit on 23/11/2016 - 18:28

          Sure, just pointing out that the FAQ says it's currently one for PC or Mac. Might be that they've stopped giving away two installs for the PC users also, or the FAQ is wrong.

          Only one code here.

        • PVA on 01/12/2016 - 21:20

          never got 2 codes with mine when I got it when 2016 first came available on HUP. It also says one PC.
          I know older versions I installed on a couple of PCs at home and it was fine with the same serial, havent tried with 2016.
          It used to also say you cant buy both products , can have either mac or windows. looks like you can have both now.

          Yeah I only got 1 code as well.
          You could definitely activate on two PCs for 2013, but any further it wouldn't let you activate.
          2016 FAQ says only once pc..

          To clarify: Office 2016 (with the 25 code we get) can be only installed on one PC?

        • cwongtech on 03/12/2016 - 16:55

          @Donatello:
          Yeah the 25 character code is supposed to work on one comp only. But I think it does work on the second comp, only one way to find out I guess

    • skinny on 24/11/2016 - 12:30

      @thisispete

      Firstly, you need a Program Code from your workplace and a corresponding email address to purchase this.

      It depends - some organisation, you can buy via an email link sent to you

      Secondly, even if you managed to obtain the above and you don't work at this Organisation you're against the EULA for the software.

      This is correct and you can read the HUP licensing conditions when you buy the software

      PS: I am not sure why so many negs for your comments

    OK I don't know why people post these "deals". You cannot do anything without the program code which will be supplied to you by your employment/education venue. Basically if you are entitled to it generally you will have been told about it.

    Also heres a tip If your company uses Office 365 license e3 or greater (Basically the office package) that gives you some free installs while you work for your company. Just login to the outlook portal outlook.office365.com and type install into the search box to get them.

        Same here, I provided my work email which ends in .gov.au, then I got a reply saying I could access all 4 products for $15 each. I then went through paying with MasterCard and another email arrives at your nominated email (I used my hotmail.com.au email) and got my product activation code. Worked fine, and have already installed it and activated my product, have been using it for a couple of hours already, and very happy. It also automatically moved all my contents from my older Office Pro 2013 install to this office without issue.

      • kasp on 24/11/2016 - 12:10

        I suppose it depends on the department. Usually they would tell you but the gov.au is signed up and I imagine they have a gigantic account with MS.

    • [Deactivated] on 24/11/2016 - 10:40

      Office 365 E3 subscriptions aren't licensed to you, they're licensed to your employer. You are breaching the license installing it at home.

      • kasp on 24/11/2016 - 10:56

        https://products.office.com/en-au/business/office-365-enterp…

        The e3 license allows each user to install Office on 5 PCs or Macs, 5 tablets (Windows, iPad, and Android), and 5 phones.

        You aren't breaching anything, perhaps before calling someone out you should make sure you know what you are talking about. The absolute worst that would happen is if you used up all 5 licenses you would have to deregister a home install.

    This isn't actually a deal, it is the standard price for Microsoft Home Use Program.

    However, the company that you work for needs to be under an applicable Microsoft Office End User Agreement through their Microsoft Enterprise Agreement. Should you leave the company that you work for under this agreement, you should also end your Home Use Program. You will need to speak to your Enterprise Agreement Licensing team within your organization to be granted the Program Code and therefore access to the program.

    This is the older deal for those under the standard Office Professional EA, rather than the newer Office 365 or Enterprise Licensing for Office 365 Suite, which grants each user licensed for Office 365 ProPlus (Usually E3, E4 or E5 etc.) to install and activate their Office ProPlus deployment on 5 devices as part of the agreement. Usually that is allocated as your work device, allowing you to activate on home device, mobile etc. where the license and activation ends when your license is revoked at the end of the license agreement or your employment.

    Not sure if I should be checking the associated with Microsoft at the bottom, I am a Microsoft Certified Consultant for Office 365…Admins please let me know if this is required?
