Understanding Microsoft 365?

 

Before getting started with Microsoft 365 We have to understand how we have purchased and used Microsoft software in the past decade. 

A few years back when we buy a new PC we used to have Ms Office installed along with PC.That Ms office installed in the PC will the latest version that is available at that time.If you want to install it in your old PC you can buy the latest version that is available at that time.But when a new version is released we  have to buy it again. 

At that time we don't feel it difficult because Microsoft has 3 years Refresh cycle.The refresh cycle means we will get new release (or) new version of the software every three years.Since three years is long time we didn't feel it difficult.

But these days with new technology coming there may be new features coming on a monthly basis. Due to new update coming on  monthly basics we are not able to buy Microsoft Office in the traditional way. 

To overcome this Microsoft introduced a service called Office 365 which contains all the traditional offices and also provides services throughout the year even monthly basics based on subscription .Office 365 is then converted to Microsoft 365 by adding features like One-drive, teams, etc as a single service and provide services for entire 365 days(year) that's why it was named as Microsoft 365.

 

In upcoming article we will discuss about the plans and features of  Microsoft 365. I hope this article will be help full and share it with your friends who might find it useful.
