Microsoft Excel 2016 for Windows is a workhorse of a spreadsheet software, offering powerful methods for summarizing, analyzing, exploring, and presenting your data. Pros Excel comes as part of Microsoft Office 365: Microsoft Excel is the spreadsheet portion of the Microsoft Office applications. For $69.99 a year, get the Office 365 Personal edition, which along with Excel, comes with Word, the word-processing workhorse; PowerPoint, the ubiquitous slideshow app; OneNote, for note-taking across platforms; Outlook, a full-featured email service; OneDrive, Microsoft's cloud storage service; and Skype, for voice and video calls.
For $99 a year, subscribe to the Office 365 Home edition, which includes the same productivity apps and lets you share your subscription with four other users. If you'd rather just buy Office and be done with it, for $149.99, you can purchase the Office Home and Student 2016 for PC edition, which includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. Or buy Excel separately: If you don't need the other apps that make up the Office apps, you can get the Microsoft Excel 2016 separately for $129.99.
