![]() I really like having a locally installed version of Office on my computer, but then have the flexibility to switch to the cloud services that are available, called Office Online. With the license that allows you to do so, it’s a good idea to install the latest version of the “classic” Office. As of now, depending on your subscription, you may have 5 downloads of Office. Depending on which Office 365 subscription/license you choose, you have the option to download the latest version of the traditional Office Suite. There’s another piece of the puzzle to understand. You can use both! Or you can use just one! So, instead of buying the Office Suite one time and then owning that version indefinitely (or at least until it isn’t supported anymore), anyone can subscribe to the cloud-based Office 365 suite and pay a monthly/yearly fee. ![]() ![]() You can buy the service directly from Microsoft. Office 365 is a set of cloud services available on a subscription basis from Microsoft. You may find that you have personally switched to Office 365 or that your organization has made a decision to switch to the subscription product called Office 365. These are robust desktop applications that allow us to perform powerful actions. Sure, you can buy Office 2013, for example, all by itself as a standalone piece of software. It’s what we’ve traditionally used for many years. ![]() The Office Suite (currently 2013) is locally installed and are applications that you launch from your computer. You may ask yourself, “Should I get Office 365 or Office 2013?” “Are Office 365 and Office 2013 different?” “Can I get both Office 365 and Office 2013?” These are great questions to consider and I’d like to clear up a few things, including terminology.
