Which programs are included in this suite? Particularly looking for Word, Excel, and Access and SICK of paying subscription for Office 365.

Word and Excel and Access are all in this package. Other things also. I have been pleased with the performance.

No it is only a trial version of Office that is included. I think it was 30 days free use, then an option to purchase the software will be available, and is very easy to activate the full program.

It's got an office starter kit, which consists of only word 2013 and excel 2013. But both are full versions, not trial versions.

No, I had to purchase those extra. I bought my machine at Best Buy and I believe it was around $110 for Microsoft office. However, no computers come with this now, only a free trial period. That's because of a lawsuit that was filed against Microsoft quite a way back claiming by having these preinstalled they were creating a monopoly. You may want to look into Google Doc's, they are free and you can do your work on any computer, because they stay "in the cloud". Once you use Google doc ( at least for the powerpoint and word equivalent) you probably won't go back. Haven't tried the excel equivalent. One really nice thing about google doc's is that you can share it, and multiple people can work on the same document at the same time on different computers. Hard to explain,, but really nice to use. Good luck in your search.

I am not sure. I had an issue and had to wipe everything off and start over. I purchased office, so I would have word. I know word was not included.

It does have Microsoft Office365 with Word, Powepoint, etc but it's a trial version. You have to buy the full version or download it for free somewhere else.

Microsoft want you to pay for the use and price gouge like crazy. If you want an alternative, check out Oracle's Open Office (google it). It has all the programs that Microsoft Office has for free. They run on the Microsoft OS, so all you have to do is download the programs you want and you are good to go. I have been using it for a couple years and and pleased with it.

The laptop does come with Microsoft Office 365, this version of Office is cloud based and requires a subscription. It's about $7 a month.

I had to buy office separate for the full version. But it does have registration for an demo. I skipped that part and went ahead and bought the full office suite.

No! I had to buy Microsoft Office to get Word and Excel, which is NOT cheap.

Microsoft Office is not included. I found it on Ebay as a download for $45.00. It works fine.

No, those are Microsoft programs. A great freebie alternative is available called "Apache". Apache is an open source program which includes virtually all the elements contained in MS Office. Updates and upgrades are provided periodically. I personally prefer it (Apache)

Microsoft Office is not included in the price of this computer. I think there were trial copies on the system, but they had to be purchased to use ongoing.

Mine came with a trial version which I think included word, excel, powerpoint. All I really needed was word so my partner purchased a version for $60.00 a year. I think the $60 version also comes with all of the above. It was a bit of a pain to get it switched over the the permanent version I bougth because the trial version was still in my computer. Sorry I could not be more help but I rely on my partner for all this tech stuff. I think the trial version was only good for a few months.

It comes with the subscription office services, but they nag for a membership. I just use Google docs, and spreadsheets.
