Got a great discount and had the product downloaded within a couple of minutes of ordering, small issue with checkout but that was me fat fingering my credit card number! Thanks SoftwareKing!

“I am not so happy with my order from Softwareking...”

Dirk K.

I am not so happy with my order from Softwareking: I had ordered Office 2016 Pro. I had asked the support beforehand "whether the Office software is installed with MSI or C2R Installer". The answer was: "this is the click-to-run version [C2R]". Unfortunately, I only got a download link to the ISO file for an MS installer, and the licence key is also only a volume licence for MSI. Because I have other Microsoft software on my computer that is installed with C2R, I cannot use the product from Softwareking. After I had emailed that I would make use of my right of withdrawal, I hear silence. The screenshot shows that it is not possible to install MS Office 2016 with MSI from Softwareking on my Laptop that has already installed MS Project which was installed with C2R.

Product was exactly as advertised, great price and no problems with the download so I'm one happy customer, had never even heard of these guys before but I see they've been around for years and are trusted so I'll certainly purchase again.

Had a few simple questions which support helped me out with, ordered and had the software operational within 20 minutes, not bad! Best price I found which had live support.

But Microsoft wouldn't let me with my original license key so I purchased a new one from these guys and used it to activate what I had running on the PC as it said 'unlicensed', now my problem is solved and i'm up and running.

Purchased 5 copies of Windows 7 from SoftwareKing, downloaded once and created my USB which I managed to use to wipe Windows 10 and load 7 on all 5 PC's in my Office. Plugged in the 5 product keys they supplied me to activate with Microsoft and I was in business. Thanks so much.

You get your license keys right away which is nice, can also easily track them through their website account system. Easy process, thanks.

I required some assistance before making the purchase so contacted Softwareking and could not be happier with the help I got. Product installed easily and I activated the product key with Microsoft so no worries about authenticity. I will definitely be back, thank you.

I've never had a problem with purchasing and receiving software from SoftwareKing. I've ordered from them twice and will continue to order from them. They have legitimate product keys that work.

I had to order Windows 7 when it wasn't available in the stores anymore. Then I decided to purchase 8.1. The prices are lower than what I'd find in the stores and the download links were provided quickly. There was no long wait.

Ran into a couple of issues during the download/install process. Software King responded in a timely manner with solutions that worked. I'd buy again.
