What we provide

We deploy Microsoft Office 2007 under the terms of our Campus Agreement license to Open Access PCs and staff PCs on the managed desktop, CFS. We automatically deploy patches, updates and security fixes to this product. As part of the Campus Agreement, this software can be installed on any University of Leicester-owned or leased PCs. If you require this software for a University-owned PC that is not on CFS you should consult your Campus Departmental Nominee.

What you can expect

Any PC on the CFS managed desktop will have Microsoft Office 2007 pre-installed. This will include Word, Excel, Powerpoint and a configured version of Outlook. Office will be automatically updated.

What we expect

We expect you to abide by the conditions of our Campus Agreement license. As Campus Agreement is a leasing license which the University negotiates every three years, we expect you to remove any components of Office if instructed by us to do so to meet the terms of our license.

Service charges

Microsoft Office is a core component of our CFS managed desktop and there is no charge when deployed in this way. If you require a CD copy for installation on a University-owned PC that is not on CFS, there is a charge of £3.00 per CD.
