Lifetime for THE COMPUTER you install this on. It's non-transferrable. (Updates are apparently included) I'm seeing regular price between $69-99.

The free updates don't include upgrades.
IOW, when Office 2024 (or whatever) comes out you don't get to upgrade to it. However, you will still receive security, bug, and critical updates to your Office 2021 for the life of the product (thru Oct 13, 2026).

Also, read the ONE COMPUTER part as something that you control. If a computer that you had this Office 2021 on dies, you are fully able to license the same Office 2021 on a new computer, provided you log into your Microsoft account and remove the old computer activation. It's a full retail license that is fully transferrable - as long as it's only on one computer at a time.

Also², If you already have (or have had) a Microsoft account tied to a subscription Microsoft product (Office365/Microsoft365) Microsoft may not allow you to use that account for perpetual products (although this isn't explained when you try to use it). Just create a new, free Microsoft account and activate it that way. You can use the key you receive for any valid email address (regardless of the email address you enter when purchasing the Office 2021 Pro).

I purchased from here in mid April. Last week my installation suddenly restricted my access as unlicensed. I called Microsoft support and they tried to help but unable to saying something to the effect this was MSDN licensed and ultimately I would have to contact the seller. I do not recommend this deal.

And presumably that means that even if you kept your computer indefinitely, at some point the new Office updates wouldn't run on it.

E.g., if your hardware can't support anything beyond Windows 11 so that's the OS you're running, but Office 2025 is only compatible with Windows 12+, you are SoL.

Thankfully I'm on a Mac, and both Apple's office software and LibreOffice are free and do everything I need.
Office doesn't work that way, at least it hasn't in the past. I'm still using excel 2010 on my pc. It does what I need for home use. I've gone thru at least 3 versions of windows with it. Last I checked they still offer a 32bit and 64bit versions. Only thing I don't like is they have really tried to push everything to the cloud.

As long as these keys work for the next six months to a year, I'm good. Nukes will be flying after that and it won't matter.

Xlookup instead of vlookup and hlookup or index/match is a game changer I hear.
From what I'm seeing, index/match is just as capable (if not more) and MUCH faster.

When I worked for a large company, we had a giant spreadsheet that did a ton of VLOOKUPs. This Excel took 6 HOURS to run each week. I converted them to INDEX/MATCH and the Excel processing time dropped to about 15 minutes (on the same computer, of course).

From what I see, XLOOKUP is even slower than VLOOKUP. No thanks.

If you work for a company that has a volume license with MS, you should check and see if they have a plan where employees can buy the software for a huge discount. I have been able to buy the Professional Office version for $10 thru my work for many years. My wife can also buy it thru her employer. Only restriction is, you are supposed to delete it if you leave the company. Not sure how this is enforced since MS doesn't know when you leave. The license is also good on more than 1 pc, I think 3 is the limit.

I bought office back in 2007. I'm tempted to get this upgrade since I hate subscriptions.

Quote from Sporkinum View quoted comment :
We gave up on straight MS office at work. Only a few key people have it, the majority use Libre Office. It's plenty good enough for most people and it's what I use at home. If I need to do work from home, I connect with VPN and then RDP to my workstation in my office.
Does libre office do okay with .xlsx? I can't for the life of me figure out how to open an xlsx file work open office (although I fully acknowledge I'm an idiot).

Tempted to just buy this and be done, but seems iffy. On another thread, people were saying they were gray market licenses.

Still rocking Office 2010 here. Does all I would ever need or want it to.
Same here ... Running Office 2007 on my laptop. It was a free key which I think was one of first deals when I got introduced to SD back in 2008.
