We're getting a crop of new laptops for my business and need to install MS Office 2024 Pro on all of them without the subscription, but the standalone version.

Any help would be appreciated

Your company can't afford $8 a month per user for an F3 license?

Saw that but is it legit? We have 35+ people so was hoping I could find a package deal for bulk licenses but 35 might be too small.

Will research the Groupon thing. Thank you fellas

The licenses themselves are legit. The transferable part might be a grey area. EU has laws superseding BS T&Cs but the USA hasn’t cared about protecting the little guy in contracts since the 1920s. Generally they’re safe unless you’re the guy who gets singled out and challenged.

It's legit as in it's a key that will work, but it's just a pro license key pulled from another device or something. It's not a "verified" key from a Microsoft retailer.

For 35 users, paying the $12.50/month per user for a Microsoft 365 Business Standard license is the only option I would go with.
