Week Seven - Software Quotations


Software Quotations

My task this week was to find some overall quotations and costings for Mrs. Carter on the software side of things: she has asked for Windows 10, Office suite and anything else that I feel would be necessary. 

Operating System: Windows 10 Professional 64-bit




Office Suit: Microsoft Office Professional 2016

Operating System: Windows 10 Professional 64-bit - She was happy with the price per unit, I had explained that I like this version of Windows and she was happy with the final cost.


Monitor: Microsoft Office Pro 2016- Mrs. Carter was impressed with the pricing even though it wasn't the most cost effective at the time, she like that it was just one payment of £75 and that was it.

Other software I recommended was open source software that would perhaps help with the day to day running of the business and would be useful to the company.

Free open source software:
