OVERVIEW OF OFFICE 365
Introduction to Office 365:
In the past, Microsoft Office was always sold as box software, so when you
buy your new computer, you have the options of buying Office whether
Microsoft Office 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016 or other subsequent versions. You
could pay $300USD to $500USD depending on the version you request for,
and you will get the software on your machine which would be installed into
your PC as infinity software, meaning you will pay once and never pay again
for the software, this is how Microsoft deals with its previous products for
very long time.
In the past years, many companies have started switching over to a
subscription model of selling software such as Adobe, Photoshop, and other
subscription software; you can’t just buy them completely anymore. You
purchase a subscription and through that subscription, you always get the
latest updated and upgraded version of any other program you subscribe for.
So, with Microsoft, they sell box software which also leads to an upgrade in
its service rendering for a quick solution to unexpected issues, flexible
storage space, and secured information with other benefits only available to
its subscribed users.
