You might consider Libre Office (a spinoff of Open Office) which has most of the MS Office functions and is mostly compatible as well. And it's free for the download. You can even get the source code for free, though most folks don't care about that so much.I will buy a MS Office Professional package to install (2021), they are readily available for $35 or so from many different vendors, as opposed to the current retail of hundreds of $$$.
I've been using one or the other of them for many years and they've served me well, even with docs I get from people with the MS stuff.
