Not only did they provide me the software I wanted at a greatly reduced price (their standard discount was twice the military discount at other sites). I ordered from half the world away (I was in Philippines on... business/they were in USA. but they stayed with me 24/7 from order to working installation. I'm sure they are equally open to all; but as a Vet, they made me feel welcome and special...like family...like brothers...I highly recommend this Vet owned business for your software needsread more

I have bought a couple of Windows Office products from Indigo. They are 100% reputable and responded quickly when I had a glitch.Many online resellers are not legitimate or safe. So I always recommend Indigo.

I had an outstanding experience with Indigo Software! I recently purchased several software packages, and every single one worked flawlessly right out of the gate. The installation and activation processes were smooth,... and everything performed exactly as expected.Before making my purchase, I had a few technical questions, and their team replied quickly and answered everything extremely well. They truly went above and beyond, which gave me total confidence in buying from them.What really set them apart, though, was their customer service. They were responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful every step of the way. It’s rare to find a company that combines high-quality products with such excellent support.I’ll definitely be coming back to purchase more licenses for both my home and business computers. Hands down one of the best purchasing experiences I’ve ever had—highly recommend. Thanks, Indigo!read more

He took care of getting me the information I needed with suggestions to help the process go smooth.

I purchased MS Office 2019 from Indigo a few years ago. Since then, my wife, son and grandson have purchased 2019, as well. This week, thanks to Microsoft updating Windows, I was unable to use any of the Office... programs. I even tried to restore my computer to before the update, with no effect. I called the Indigo Help Desk and Jessie was incredible as she patiently worked with me for over an hour. Finally, she sent me a new product code so I could reinstall the program. The problem was no fault of Indigo, but they solved my problem. An outstanding example of customer care. I highly recommend Indigo for Microsoft software at Great prices.read more

I've made multiple purchases from Indigo Software over the years. I've found them very competitive from the price standpoint, with a quick clear distribution for licensing. Recently after a hardware upgrade, one of my... licence keys stopped working. Indigo solved my problem promptly, with excellent friendly communication. I highly recommend them and will use them again.read more

Best customer service ever!! their tech called me after hours to solve an issue, was generous with his time and patient and gave his all. He called again first thing in the morning to ensure it was all resolved even... before my day started so I didn't miss a single day of work. I have not found yet any company to provide this level of service, even more than a year after the purchase. Highly highly highly recommended! Thank you guys.read more

I always go to Indigo SoftwRe for my Microsoft Office purchases, I haven't found a better price anywhere. What I didn't know is that they have awesome customer service.

I was back to work in minutes. Thank you Indigo for simplifying my life!read more

I’m thankful I found Indigo Software. Over the last few years, I’ve purchased their Microsoft Office Professional software suite for three different home computers.

I purchased a couple of licenses for Windows 10 over the years and 1 license for Office Pro 2019. I dumped one of my older laptops where Office Pro 2019 was installed and purchased a new laptop. Unfortunately, I... could not activate the Office Pro 2019 on my new laptop. I reached out to Indigo and they provided me a new legitimate activation code which I successfully registered in my Microsoft online account. I was then able to re-install on my new laptop without issue and fully activated and recognized as legitimate MS software.read more

They have amazing customer service. I accidentally ordered the wrong item and then email them about my mistake. They were very quick to cancel my original order and refund the cost so I could easily order what I... actually wanted. The refund credited quickly to my credit card so there was no financial impact or delay.They have an excellent video to a company the order which made it very simple and easy to download and install.I am so happy to see that there are companies out there that still know what true customer service is.read more

I purchased Office from Indigo some time ago, but in the aftermath of upgrading my PC's CPU and upgrading to Windows 11, the license was lost/deleted/corrupted/removed and my Office was deemed an unlicensed copy (with... the corresponding warnings from Microsoft.) The Team Indigo Helpdesk was (unlike some other "helpdesks") very helpful, resolving my issues promptly, even on a weekend. One may purchase productivity software from many sources, but they stand behind their service. Thank you Indigo. I feel comfortable in recommending your service to anyone at any time.read more
