Default you are best to stay with microsoft

As I understand it not supported means no updates mostly. I find the one drive cloud storage important because my computer died and without it I would have lost everything. I did let the office lapse at one point it didn't seem to change anything. When I was working and they switched to a different system I missed the excel very much. I think there is a family plan that lets you combine many households at one price. If you go to anything else, especially without cloud storage, I would back up your computer to an external storage device just to be safe. I used a device called a passport drive before I went for the microsoft cloud. But I am no expert, Just my expierience. My opinion and $3.75 might get you a latte.
