Whether you like it or not, the ribbon interface is a massive step forward compared to the floating toolbox of the previous version. The result is therefore a streamlined application that is a lot more intuitive to use and a proper word processing application that no one has to feel awkward with. It is as if Microsoft solved the ‘puzzle’ that is Word 2008. It is of no surprise then, that the most obvious improvement is the revamped user interface. Their wishes have been granted in word 2011. However, after the release of Word 2008 for Mac, many users would definitely have opted for a ribbon interface like that of the Windows version. Word for Windows 2007 introduced the new ‘ribbon’ interface, which by itself was a bit controversial. The application had a steep learning curve, especially for those coming from any of the Windows versions, and especially from 2007.
WORDPERFECT FOR MAC 2011 FOR MAC
Word 2008 for mac was received with mixed reactions, the interface was not conceived as very usable, with the floating toolbox as the absolute low point. Word 2011 is not just a minor update to the 2008 version, just to catch up with some new document extension standards. Now it seems as if Microsoft themselves will remove all doubt, Word 2011 is the first grown-up and truly useful version on Mac.
As the Windows version is used by many, the lack of an identical Word experience on Mac has stopped many from making the switch. Word for Mac has forever been a point of discussion.
