What Microsoft Office package should we get for my wife's office?

She works at a small clinic. They are still using MS Office 2003. I'm fairly certain that they aren't running Windows 7 which is a requirement for Office 2013. I think Office 365 is not needed, unless someone can show me otherwise. It looks like Office 2010 is what would be needed. I have a copy of it, but don't know if I'm allowed to load it up on all of their computers without purchasing more key codes. Definitely don't want to get the business in trouble with unauthorized software.

If this means they are still running Windows XP, then they need to get to 7 or 8.1
XP is no longer supported by Microsoft which means it will become more and more vuilnerable. They need to bite the bullet and get with the times.

You can not legally do this. You can't even buy Office 2010 any more.
I would go Office 365 Business Premium in a second for a small business. It covers Microsoft Office and your email for $150/yr per PC and you never have to worry about buying licenses again.

Check out Open Office. Works great in a small business environment. Just doesn't have an Outlook equivalent, but does everything else that most people use: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access.
