It receives security updates and bug fixes, so the system stays stable and protected. What it doesn't get are new features or interface changes that Microsoft rolls out from time to time in 365.
LTSC is meant for people who value reliability and consistency without constant changes.
And honestly, how many new features do we really need in Word? Most people use the same core tools anyway.

My access databases imported without error too. It's good to question gray market ms office keys but from my experience this vendor has been legit. Also bought ms visio keys.
I have a 2021 that stopped working when I upgraded the video card, and could not get it to re-activate. While an office license is cheap, this time I elected to give LibreOffice a try for my home computer (so far, so good), since I only really use it for basic Word and Excel tasks.

Since I needed to activate ASAP (only a few days left), I pulled the trigger on this. Got the key right away. Activated over the internet with no problem.

But whatever, it installed and works so I'm happy and was simple. If I overpaid I can at least say it was easy.

The license is probably real and provides a real MS product; however, please note this is an LTSC license. I bought this from another vendor and found out the hard way. That vendor, like this one, didn't say it was LTSC. I don't get updates, help doesn't work, etc.
Actually, it's a bit simpler than it may seem. Office LTSC does get updates, just not the same kind as Microsoft 365.

This has been the case for every non-subscription Office product going back almost 20 years ago to Office 2007. For example, this offering...LTSC 2024... will receive updates until Oct 2029. The previous offering...Office 2021...will receive updates until next year in Oct 2026. For the prior offering... Office 2019... updates ended in Oct 2023. Here's a link to a chart showing End of Life dates for all MS Office products:

I've been using these non-subscription Office suites for almost 15 years going back to Office 2010 and have never missed the "feature updates" shiny glitter that MS wraps around the 365 subscription. However my only complaint about the 2024 version is that MS in all of its wisdom has decided to remove Publisher. My wife...who really hates change... has used it for years and is crushed that it's going away. So I have a year to work on some alternatives for her but it's not going be fun.
