Microsoft Office Outlook 2007: Compare prices

By Elsa Wenzel on 15/02/2007

More Microsoft reviews , RRP: AU$690.00

The good:

  • Lets you drag tasks and meetings to its calendar
  • Allows image editing within messages
  • Speeds up searches
  • Integrates with other Office software
  • Adds straightforward e-mail security warnings
  • E-mails can display previews of Office files
  • Offers new contact cards
  • Most commands remain in place from Outlook 2003

The bad:

  • New Instant Search feature didn't find recent content within Inbox subfolders
  • Outlook uses Word 2007's HTML for rendering, which leaves some formatted messages looking lopsided

The bottomline:

If you work with Microsoft Outlook on a daily basis, this upgrade can make scheduling simpler and e-mailing more interesting. Still, we wish Instant Search and e-mail rendering were better.
