Microsoft has a general problem with licensing. I know several people who paid to get a Microsoft Office license, out of their own pockets, via their employer (a bit IT company), and they have afterwards received letters saying that the employer has stopped some kind of cooperation with Microsoft that means that the purchased license is no longer legal... Another example is that Microsoft's cheapest licenses for home users actually don't permit that the user uses the license for most of the activities they do, like doing stuff for scout organizations, home owner associations etc.
