I hope everyone of us are aware of Office 2007, which has a lots of new features, particularly graphics. I do heard that many people like to use Office 2003 rather than Office 2007. Can any one tell me why is it so and which do you prefer?

I think office 2007 is much better when it comes to the features added, but a little bit complicated. The office 2003 is much easy to use with all user gudance inclusive and i believe lot of small businesses still prefer the use of office 2003 Office 2007 require lot of hard disk space (approximately 700MB) and some useless programs, like groove and info path. I still use office 2003 but i did try the use of office 2007, is boring me

I was not aware of the Office 2007 until I was reading the email migration notification from our I.T. a month ago. In that notification, there are instructions of setting our mail box base for different Office version. I noticed that there are instructions for Office 2007 and then only I realized about its existence. Unfortunately, my company laptop are for working purpose and we haven't got the corporate license to use it on my laptop. Those laptop which are newly leased only have the licensed Office 2007. Therefore, I do not have any idea how good it's. However, I believe it's definitely better than its predecessor, the Office 2003.

It is because of what they are used to. That's why they prefer Microsoft Office 2003. Microsoft Office 2007 consume more space in the hard disk than Microsoft 2003. When a ms 2003 user changed to ms 2007, he/she will need to adapt the software's graphical user interface.

I would prefer Office 2007 is better than office 2003, as it is a advanced version of 2003 which has many additional feature compared to 2003. Office 2007 is the user friendly which makes the work simpler.

Office 2007 is new to all the users so it has been uneasy to transform from Office 2003,which have been reigning for quite a long time, to Office 2007. I prefer Office 2007 which make work really simpler and easy to use.

I am running Office 2003 student teacher version. the biggest reason I havent changed is the cost, plus I use outlook for my email program and the student teacher version for Office 2007 doesnt have Outlook as part of the package.

There was a time when it was imperative to have a computer in order to do wordprocessing and other fun stuff. Nowadays, there is internet surfing and I have not used any of the office tools in many, many years. Cheers!!

I am still using office 2003, though I wanted to update to office 2007. Maybe some people don't want to migrate to office 2007 because it is a little bit confusing when using it for the first time. In my opinion, it has a lot of improvements making it better than the older versions.
