The software giant’s latest platform offers a suite of apps that promotes team productivity while complementary to all-new Windows 10
Microsoft has kick-started the worldwide release of Office 2016, in that the apps serve as the latest edition to Office 365, the brand’s cloud-based subscription service aimed at assisting users to put out their best work as a collective. The company has also introduced new and enhanced Office 365 services built for team productivity.
“The way people work has changed dramatically and that’s why Microsoft is focused on reinventing productivity and business processes for the mobile-first, cloud-first world. These latest innovations take another big step forward in transforming Office from a familiar set of individual productivity apps to a connected set of apps and services designed for modern working, collaboration, and teamwork,” said Satya Nadella, Chief Executive Officer of Microsoft.
Office 2016 delivers new versions of the Office desktop apps for Windows including Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, OneNote, Project, Visio, and Access. Subscribing to Office 365 allows users access to fully-installed and up-to-date apps for their devices. These are combined with a continually evolving set of consumer and commercial services such as OneDrive online storage, Skype for Business, Delve, Yammer, and enterprise-grade security features.
The latest Office and Windows 10 together are the most complete solution for doing. The Office 2016 apps are designed to run complementary to the most compatible Windows version to have surfaced so far. It includes the new Sway for Windows, while Windows Hello logs one into Windows and Office 365 with one simple step.
Office Mobile apps on Windows 10 empower on-the-go productivity as well as works with Continuum, which enable one to use his phone like a personal computer. Also, Cortana connects with Office 365 to help with tasks such as meeting preparation while with Outlook integration is set for lift-off in November 2015.
