In addition to the five editions of Office 2010 announced in July 2009, and the ad-supported one announced in October 2009, in October 2008 Microsoft first demonstrated the Office Web Apps-Web versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. Office 2010 is the first release of the productivity suite that will come in 32-bit and 64-bit flavors and on one DVD no less. The most ambitious goal Microsoft is striving for with Office 2010 is making it available via a familiar experience across the PC, phone, and browser.
Microsoft has yet to announce the official pricing for full and upgrade versions of Office 2010. The academic version is really the only inconsistency, but it's still quite plausible Redmond loves giving deals to students, and Microsoft Office is no exception.

The Advanced Server Integration Features include: The table below outlines the key differences between the two editions: It also connects users to key business processes. Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010® on the other hand offers a complete toolset for both individual and team productivity servers. Microsoft Office Standard 2010® is designed specifically for individual productivity.
This article looks at the differences between the two. There are two versions of Microsoft Office 2010® available through Microsoft Volume Licensing® – Standard and Professional Plus.
