It depends exactly what you're doing in Word/Excel, whether you're sharing with other people, what version you're sharing with, what formulas you want, etc.
A variety of the more recent Excel formulas like xlookup just don't work in Sheets and give errors on import. Neither do things like the data model, macros, etc
But, if you're just doing more basic stuff you're probably OK (until you're not). Same with document formatting in Word.
Personally I think O365 is pretty good value if you need cloud storage. It's cheaper than all of the other popular options just for the storage, not even counting also getting Office.
Otherwise you can pick up a key for £20 or so from one of the key resellers for standalone office.

I need some windows advice please.
First question is, I just purchased mrssacred a new windows laptop.
She does most off her work on a remote desktop (I think that's the right term, she logs into their portal and access' their word, excel and cloud)
Does a little personal work on her own word/excel too.
Should she carry on paying for Microsoft 365 to have her own copies of word and Excel or is their a better option?
