Microsoft Office MixOriginal author(s)Microsoft CorporationInitial

Microsoft Office Mix (or simply "Office Mix")[1][2][3][4][5][6] was a service
offered by Microsoft as part of their Office suite. Introduced in 2014, Mix was
offered as part of an Office 365 subscription, before it was retired on May 1,
2018[7][8][9] The Office Mix website remains active, however upon visiting the
site, it presents a message that states that the service is now unavailable.

Office Mix was an Office add-in that integrated into the PowerPoint program that
was intended as an educational service to assist teachers with creating
interactive class presentations.[2][5] It allowed the user to perform various
tasks such as inserting ink, narrations, polls, and screen captures directly
into the presentation, share their creation (otherwise referred to as a
(singular) "mix" or (plural) "mixes") by exporting the mix into a computer video
format or publishing it to online Office 365 Video platform, and view
statistical data on users viewing their creations through analytics tools.[6]
The service was available for Office 2013 and Office 2016 and it was only made
available to the Windows operating system.[1]

INSTALLATION[EDIT]

Office Mix did not come embedded into the PowerPoint program. Instead, the user
had to obtain the Office Mix add-in installer through the mix.office.com website
in order to integrate the Office Mix add-in to the PowerPoint program and a
global tab named "Mix" would appear across the application's interface where the
user could access various options related to Office Mix.

Note: The user would be required to attest their ownership of an active Office
365 subscription through their personal Microsoft account or one that is managed
by their organization or institution, or a compatible external SSO service such
as a Google account or Facebook account.


FEATURES[EDIT]

The Office Mix service allowed the following features to the user:[6]

 * Drawing ink and annotating PowerPoint presentations, and inserting
   narrations, polls, and screen captures directly.
 * Share the user's creations on Office Mix (otherwise referred to as a
   (singular) "mix" or (plural) "mixes") by exporting the mix into a computer
   video format or publishing it to the online Office 365 Video platform.
 * Generate and view statistical data on users viewing their creations through
   analytics tools.


DISCONTINUATION[EDIT]

Beginning May 1, 2018, the Office Mix service was officially retired by
Microsoft and became inaccessible to all customers after users were sent an
e-mail notification issuing them several months to retrieve all of their content
and mixes off of the platform prior to shutdown. After the discontinuation, the
features of Office Mix were instead embedded into the PowerPoint program to
users who obtained Office via an Office 365 subscription which remain
available.[7][8][9]
