Microsoft hosts secret installation files for Microsoft Office 2011 for Macintosh as well. After pulling almost all other direct downloads, the Office 2011 downloads are among the few remaining ones.

Important Note February 2015

Microsoft has taken down all previous and current download servers (msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net, msft.digitalrivercontent.net, digitalrivercontent.net and drcdn.blob.core.windows.net)! For Office 2011, we were able to find an alternative legitimate download channel.

Office 2011 Test Drive

When starting the installation, you will be provided the choice whether to install the full version of Office 2011 using a product key, or to install a trial edition. If you select the trial edition here, you can evaluate Office 2011 up to 30 days.

Purchase an Office 2011 Activation Key

Should you want to use Office 2011 permanently, and don't own a product key yet, you can order it from an online retailer such as Amazon or eBay. As with all other Microsoft Office versions, the language of the key purchase has no effect on the activation. It can activate all language editions. Here are some purchase links:

• Office 2011 Home and Student (Excel, PowerPoint, Word)
• Office 2011 Home and Business (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook)

Download Office 2011 Setup Files

Apart from the downloads in the following table, there are a couple of alternative download sources, all of which require providing a product key.

• Office 2011 General Backup
• Office 2010/2011 Academic backup
• Office HUP downloads, all versions, go to "My Account"
• Office 2011 for Mac Backup with PIN
• Replacement for broken Office installation CD

The files in the following table are direct downloads, officially hosted by microsoft.com, and don't require a key or any other form of authentication.

Hashes for most Office 2011 installers can be found in our hash database.
