Microsoft Corporation has begun the worldwide release of Office 2016. It said that the apps were the latest addition to Office 365, which is Microsoft’s cloud-based subscription service that helps people do their best work, together.
The company has also announced new and enhanced Office 365 services built for team productivity.
“The way people work has changed dramatically, and that is why Microsoft is focused on re-inventing productivity and business processes for the mobile-first, cloud-first world,” the Chief Executive Officer of Microsoft, Satya Nadella, said.
“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,” he added.
Nadella recently wrote about the new Office on the official Microsoft blog, while the Corporate Vice President for the Office Client Applications and Services team, Kirk Koenigsbauer, provided more insights into Office 2016 on the Office blog.
Nadella stated that Office 2016 delivered new versions of the Office desktop apps for Windows, including Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, OneNote, Project, Visio and Access.
He said, “By subscribing to Office 365, customers can get always-up-to-date, fully installed apps for use across their devices, 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.
“Together, the new Office and Windows 10 are the most complete solution for doing.
“The Office 2016 apps run beautifully on the best Windows ever, including the new Sway for Windows 10 to create shareable, interactive stories that look great on any screen.”
According to him, Windows Hello logs a user into Windows and Office 365 in one simple step, saying that Office Mobile apps on Windows 10 empower on-the-go productivity, and work with Continuum to enable the user to use a phone like a personal computer.
“Cortana connects with Office 365 to help with tasks such as meeting preparation, with Outlook integration coming in November,” the Microsoft added.
