Excel and PowerPoint have seen some nice new features added however Word is mostly the same. The new UI is different but mostly just cosmetic over 2010. Although the ribbon has more options.
The biggest changes in 2013 are SkyDrive integration. If you don't really need SkyDrive you can probably live without it until the next version of Office.
I do find 2013 uses less memory than 2010 and generally performs better which is the reason I have stuck with 2013 more than anything else.
- rlu 14y agoWord has improved "track changes" and commenting. Definitely my favorite changes specific to word. Other than that, it can also embed videos (nice to be able to play a video instead of clicking a link to open a browser and watch the video...) and it can also finally open and edit PDFs. Seriously though, check out the new tracked changes. Much nicer than before.

- rlu 14y agoPictures/graphics too? We aren't talking cat videos here lol
- ditoa 14y agoYeah Word does have a few nice new things but I wouldn't say they are worth the price of the upgrade. The advanced embedded stuff scares me a little. I can see people adding huge videos into a word document and emailing it to 100+ people on a DL. I can see it being abused.
