This year I developed a spreadsheet in Excel that uses some new database formulas. The result is pretty incredible and has expanded the efficiency of my employer in ways they never imagined. I believe that the Google spreadsheet app uses these functions as well, and perhaps they exist in the free spreadsheet alternatives, but they were a revelation to me since I have been constrained to Office 2011 on my main machine.

I had to build the spreadsheet using my newer machine, a 2 year old Mac Mini, running Office 365 provided by the employer since Office 2011 lacked those features.

Since I need to migrate my email database from Outlook from Office 2011 to the new Outlook, I'm trying to decide on the best purchase.

I think that owning the app would be better than relying on making monthly or annual payments to maintain access to my email records.

Unless I attempted to migrate many gigabytes to the cloud in an Office 365 plan...

Any advice?
