Microsoft 365 Family with NordVPN Basic looks like a strong bundle for households that want Office access, shared installs, and cloud storage. The Family plan supports up to five users and mobile devices, with 10TB of cloud storage across the account, and the Microsoft code can be redeemed on Microsoft's site and stacked up to five years total. Nord codes also stack, though the subscription date may take a day or two to update and account activity can briefly trigger an error before it clears. The value lands best for people who will use both services, especially storage and Microsoft app compatibility.
People who want to lock in long-term Microsoft access, because the subscription can stack up to five years in one account.
Families sharing Microsoft apps across multiple devices, because the plan allows direct app installation for up to five users and includes 10TB of cloud storage.
People who already have an active Microsoft 365 account and want instant activation, because these codes may require vendor-site activation and can fail on an already-active account.
Yes. The code can be redeemed on the Microsoft site and added to an existing Microsoft 365 Family subscription, as long as you stay within Microsoft's stacking limit. Microsoft accounts can hold up to 5 years total at once.
Yes. Both Microsoft 365 and NordVPN can be stacked, and the bundle codes were successfully applied to both services. Nord may take a day or two to show the updated date when multiple subscriptions are added, and one account hit a temporary activity error after stacking multiple codes before succeeding later.
The Family plan allows installation for up to five users and includes 10TB of cloud storage across those users. It also includes cloud backup up to 4TB for some setups, which is a major reason to keep the subscription.
It can be worth it for both, but the strongest value here is often the storage: commenters describe it as roughly $7 per month for 6TB or as 10TB across Family users. Office access is still included and remains the main reason for people who need Microsoft's apps and Excel compatibility.
Do you really need to own office? Google docs, libreofficez .etc are all just as good but free.
This deal is essentially for their cloud storage. I don't even have office installed.
Honestly not sure but the amount of excel files I have on my dropbox it just makes easy to use. Might look into libre office though if it downloads to computer and reads xlsx files. Use tons of XLOOKUPS and have had that break before with older microsoft versions.

Well, while some of the cloud office alternatives work pretty well, none really provide all the features that the current MSFT office suite does.and for many users there is a switching cost for sure.. but this FAMILY plan allows direct registered app installation for up to FIVE users and their devices including mobile devices (I don't think this counts against the five accounts installs),, and THEN there is the 10TB cloud storage across all those users.. so for the money, actually in todays world the pricing is still pretty solid - as much as we don't really like this transition from legacy OWNED vs. LEASED business model.
And what replaces the 1TB online storage, oh wise one?
These products don't come in close to office. Office stuff is a gold standard and easy to use. My personal opinion. This deal is great for storage. You are basically paying $7 a month for 6tb of space. Having access to office is just a bonus.

Yes, perhaps you missed my sarcasm. I use Office, but not much. However, my whole homelab is backed up to One Drive (encrypted of course).
Every time one of these deals are posted, some ignoramus has to point out the free alternatives (ignoring the storage component).

Has anyone added these to an account they already upgraded to Microsoft 365 Premium Family? It won't let me redeem personal anymore so I'm kind of hesitant to try to stack on more family.
