Subscription services offered by Microsoft
Not to be confused with Windows 365.

Microsoft 365
From top-left: Outlook, OneDrive, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, SharePoint,
Teams, and Yammer

Microsoft 365 is a product family of productivity software, collaboration and
cloud-based services owned by Microsoft. It encompasses online services such as
Outlook.com, OneDrive, Microsoft Teams, programs formerly marketed under the
name Microsoft Office (including applications such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint,
and Outlook on Microsoft Windows, macOS, mobile devices, and on the web),
enterprise products and services associated with these products such as Exchange
Server, SharePoint, and Yammer. It also covers subscription plans encompassing
these products, including those that include subscription-based licenses to
desktop and mobile software, and hosted email and intranet services.

The branding Office 365 was first introduced in 2010 to refer to a
subscription-based software as a service platform for the corporate market,
including hosted services such as Exchange, SharePoint, and Lync Server, and
Office on the web. Some plans also included licenses for the Microsoft Office
2010 software. Upon the release of Office 2013, Microsoft began to promote the
service as the primary distribution model for the Microsoft Office suite, adding
consumer-focused plans integrating with services such as OneDrive and Skype, and
emphasizing ongoing feature updates (as opposed to non-subscription licenses,
where new versions require purchase of a new license, and do not receive feature
updates).

In July 2017, Microsoft introduced a second brand of subscription services for
the enterprise market known as Microsoft 365, combining Office 365 with Windows
10 Enterprise volume licenses and other cloud-based security and device
management products. On April 21, 2020, Office 365 was rebranded as Microsoft
365, to emphasize the services current inclusion of products and services beyond
the core Microsoft Office software family (including cloud-based productivity
tools and artificial intelligence features). Most products that were called
Office 365 were renamed as Microsoft 365 on the same day.[2] In October 2022,
Microsoft announced that it would discontinue the "Microsoft Office" brand by
January 2023, with most of its products and online productivity services being
marketed primarily under the "Microsoft 365" brand.


HISTORY[EDIT]


AS OFFICE 365[EDIT]

Microsoft first announced Office 365 in October 2010, beginning with a private
beta with various organizations, leading into a public beta in April 2011, and
reaching general availability on June 28, 2011, with a launch aimed originally
at corporate users. Facing growing competition from Google's similar service
Google Apps, Microsoft designed the Office 365 platform to "bring together" its
existing online services (such as the Business Productivity Online Suite) into
"an always-up-to-date cloud service" incorporating Exchange Server (for e-mail),
SharePoint (for internal social networking, collaboration, and a public web
site), and Lync (for communication, VoIP, and conferencing). Plans were
initially launched for small business and enterprises; the small business plan
offered Exchange e-mail, SharePoint Online, Lync Online, web hosting via
SharePoint, and the Office Web Apps, with the enterprise plan also adding
per-user licenses for the Office 2010 Professional Plus software and 24/7 phone
support.[3] [4] Following the official launch of the service, Business
Productivity Online Suite customers were given 12 months to migrate from BPOS to
the Office 365 platform.[5]

With the release of Office 2013, an updated version of the Office 365 platform
was launched on February 27, 2013, expanding Office 365 to include new plans
aimed at different types of businesses, along with new plans aimed at general
consumers, including benefits tailored towards Microsoft consumer services such
as OneDrive (whose integration with Office was a major feature of the 2013
suite).[6] The server components were updated to their respective 2013 versions,
and Microsoft expanded the Office 365 service with new plans, such as Small
Business Premium, Midsize Premium, and Pro Plus.[7] A new Office 365 Home
Premium plan aimed at home users offers access to the Office 2013 suite for up
to five computers, along with expanded OneDrive storage and 60 minutes of Skype
calls monthly. The plan is aimed at mainstream consumers, especially those who
want to install Office on multiple computers.[8][9] A University plan was
introduced, targeted at post-secondary students. With these new offerings,
Microsoft began to offer prepaid Office 365 subscriptions through retail outlets
alongside the normal, perpetually licensed editions of Office 2013 (which are
only licensed for use on one computer, and do not receive feature
updates).[10][11]

On March 19, 2013, Microsoft detailed its plans to provide integration with the
enterprise social networking platform Yammer (which they had acquired in 2012)
for Office 365, such as the ability to use a single sign-on between the two
services, shared feeds and document aggregation, and the ability to entirely
replace the SharePoint news feed and social functionality with Yammer.[12] The
ability to provide a link to a Yammer network from an Office 365 portal was
introduced in June 2013, with heavier integration (such as a Yammer app for
SharePoint and single sign-on) to be introduced in July 2013.[13]

On July 8, 2013, Microsoft unveiled Power BI, a suite of business intelligence
and self-serve data mining tools for Office 365, to be released later in the
year. Power BI is primarily incorporated into Excel, allowing users to use the
Power Query tool to create spreadsheets and graphs using public and private
data, and also perform geovisualization with Bing Maps data using the Power Map
tool (previously available as a beta plug-in known as GeoFlow). Users will also
be able to access and publish reports, and perform natural language queries on
data.[14][15] As a limited-time offer for certain markets (but notably excluding
the US), Microsoft also offered a free one-year Xbox Live Gold subscription with
any purchase of an Office 365 Home Premium or University subscription, until
September 28, 2013.[16]

From April 15, 2014, Microsoft renamed the "Home Premium" plan to "Home,” and
added a new "Personal" plan for single users.[17][18]

In June 2014, the amount of OneDrive storage offered to Office 365 subscribers
was increased to 1 terabyte from 20 GB.[19] On October 27, 2014, Microsoft
announced "unlimited" OneDrive storage for Office 365 subscribers.[20] However,
due to abuse and a general reduction in storage options implemented by
Microsoft, the 1 TB cap was reinstated in November 2015.[21]

In June 2016, Microsoft made Planner available for general release. It is
considered to be a competitor to Trello and to other agile team collaboration
cloud services.[22]

In April 2017, Microsoft announced that with the ending of mainstream support
for Office 2016 on October 13, 2020, access to OneDrive for Business and Office
365-hosted servers for Skype for Business will become unavailable to those who
are not using Office 365 ProPlus or Office perpetual in mainstream support.[23]
In July 2019, Microsoft announced that the hosted Skype for Business Online
service would be discontinued on July 31, 2021, with users being redirected to
the Microsoft Teams collaboration platform as its replacement. Since September
2019, Skype for Business Online is no longer offered to new subscribers.[24][25]

In October 2017, the existing Outlook.com Premium service was discontinued and
folded exclusively into Office 365, with all Personal and Family subscribers
subsequently being upgraded to 50 GB of storage.[26]


AS MICROSOFT 365[EDIT]

FOR BUSINESSES[EDIT]

The "Microsoft 365" brand was first introduced at Microsoft Inspire in July 2017
as an enterprise subscription product, succeeding the "Secure Productive
Enterprise" services released in 2016, and combining Windows 10 Enterprise with
Office 365 Business Premium, and the Enterprise Mobility + Security suite
including Advanced Threat Analytics, Azure Active Directory, Azure Information
Protection, Cloud App Security and Windows Intune. Microsoft 365 is sold via
Microsoft and its cloud services reseller network.[27][28]

CONSUMER LAUNCH[EDIT]

On March 30, 2020, Microsoft announced that the consumer plans of Office 365
would be rebranded as "Microsoft 365" (a brand also used by Microsoft for an
enterprise subscription bundle of Windows, Office 365, and security services) on
April 21 2020, succeeding existing consumer plans of Office 365.[29]

It is a superset of the existing Office 365 products and benefits, positioned
towards "life,” productivity, and families, including the Microsoft Office
suite, 1 TB of additional OneDrive storage and access to OneDrive Personal
Vault, and 60 minutes of Skype calls per month. Under the brand, Microsoft will
also add access to its collaboration platform Teams (which will also add
additional features designed around family use), and a premium tier of Microsoft
Family Safety. Microsoft also announced plans to offer trial offers of
third-party services for Microsoft 365 subscribers, with companies such as Adobe
(Creative Cloud Photography), Blinkist, CreativeLive, Experian, and Headspace
having partnered. Microsoft 365 Personal and Family succeeded the Office 365
Personal and Home subscriptions, with no change in pricing.[30][31][32][33]

Office 365 for small- and medium-sized businesses was also renamed Microsoft
365, with Office 365 Business and ProPlus becoming "Microsoft 365 Apps for
business" and "Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise,” Office 365 Business
Essentials becoming "Microsoft 365 Business Basic,” and Office 365 Business
Premium becoming "Microsoft 365 Business Standard" (with the existing Microsoft
365 Business product becoming "Microsoft 365 Business Premium"). The Office 365
brand remains in use for its enterprise, education, healthcare, and governmental
plans. Microsoft stated that "over the last several years, our cloud
productivity offering has grown well beyond what people traditionally think of
as 'Office',” citing examples such as Forms, Planner, Stream, and Teams.[34]

On October 13, 2022, Microsoft announced that it would be phasing out the
Microsoft Office brand, in favor of branding all products under the Microsoft
365 name. This change will take effect on Office.com in November 2022, followed
by the Office mobile apps in January 2023. The Microsoft Office brand will still
be used for legacy products, including subscription products still carrying the
"Office 365" name since the previous Microsoft 365 rebranding, and the
"on-premises"/perpetually licensed Microsoft Office 2021.[35][11]


SOFTWARE AND SERVICES[EDIT]


DESKTOP APPLICATIONS[EDIT]

Main article: List of Microsoft 365 applications and services

The Microsoft 365 desktop applications (formerly marketed as Microsoft Office)
are primarily used on personal computers running Microsoft Windows, and are
distributed as part of the Microsoft 365 subscription. They are installed using
a "click-to-run" system which allows users to begin using the applications
almost instantaneously, while files are downloaded in the background. Updates to
the software are installed automatically, covering both security and feature
updates. These applications were one of the core components of the initial
Office 365 service.[6][9][10][36] If the user's subscription lapses, the
applications enter a read-only mode where editing functionality is disabled.
Full functionality is restored once a new subscription is purchased and
activated.[37]

Although there are still "on-premises" or "perpetual" releases of Office
released on a three-year cycle, these versions do not receive new features or
access to new cloud-based services as they are released on Microsoft
365.[38][39][40]

All of these applications, excluding Access and Publisher, are also available on
macOS.

 * Microsoft Word is a word processing application for editing documents.
 * Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet editor.
 * Microsoft PowerPoint is a presentation program.
 * Microsoft OneNote is a notetaking program that gathers handwritten or typed
   notes, drawings, screen clippings and audio commentaries. Notes can be shared
   with other OneNote users over the Internet or a network.
 * Microsoft Outlook is a personal information manager (PIM) that includes an
   e-mail client, calendar, task manager and address book.
 * Microsoft Publisher is a desktop publishing app for Windows mostly used for
   designing brochures, labels, calendars, greeting cards, business cards,
   newsletters, web sites, and postcards.
 * Microsoft Access is a database management system for Windows that combines
   the relational Access Database Engine (formerly Jet Database Engine) with a
   graphical user interface and software development tools. Microsoft Access
   stores data in its own format based on the Access Database Engine. It can
   also import or link directly to data stored in other applications and
   databases.[41]


MOBILE AND WEB APPLICATIONS[EDIT]

Word, Excel, and PowerPoint are available as mobile and web apps, usable for
free with limitations, although they do not contain all of the functionality as
the desktop versions. The mobile apps were originally limited to Office 365
subscribers,[42][43][44] but basic editing and document creation has since been
made free for personal use. An active Microsoft 365 subscription is still
required to unlock certain advanced editing features, use the apps on devices
with screens larger than 10.1 inches, or to use the apps for commercial
purposes.[45][46][47] In February 2020, Microsoft introduced a new Microsoft
Office app that integrates Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, replacing the previous,
separate apps for each.[48]

Microsoft Outlook for mobile is derived from the apps Acompli and Sunrise
Calendar, which were acquired by Microsoft and discontinued.[49][50][51]


ONLINE SERVICES AND APPS[EDIT]

Some Microsoft 365 online services are usable without a subscription, but with
limitations such as advertising and lower storage limits.

 * Outlook.com, an online webmail service originally launched as Hotmail, also
   including an address book (People) and calendar.
 * OneDrive, an online file storage service.
 * Office on the web, cloud-based versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint; they
   compete primarily with services such as Google Docs.
 * Microsoft Teams, a business communication platform.
 * To Do, a task management app.
 * ClipChamp, an online video editor.[52]
 * Skype, an instant messaging and VOIP service.
 * Microsoft Family Safety is a service encompassing parental controls that can
   be used across Windows, Android, iOS, and Xbox devices for web filtering,
   time limits, location sharing, and other features.[53][54]


ENTERPRISE SERVERS AND SERVICES[EDIT]

Business and enterprise-oriented plans for Microsoft/Office 365 offer access to
cloud-hosted server platforms on a software as a service basis, including
Exchange, Skype for Business, SharePoint, Microsoft Dictate (speech
recognition[55][56]), and Office on the web.[3] Through SharePoint's OneDrive
for Business functionality (formerly known as SharePoint MySites and SkyDrive
Pro, and distinct from the consumer-oriented OneDrive service), each user also
receives 1 TB of online storage. Certain plans also include unlimited personal
cloud storage per user.[57][58]

Microsoft 365 services can be configured through an online portal; users can be
added manually, imported from a CSV file, or set up for single sign-on with a
local Active Directory using Active Directory Federation Services.[5][59] More
advanced setup and features requires the use of PowerShell scripts.[60]

 * Exchange Server, a mail and calendaring server.
 * SharePoint is a web-based collaborative platform. It is primarily sold as a
   document management and storage system, but the product is highly
   configurable and usage varies substantially among organizations.
 * Microsoft Power Platform is a line of business intelligence, app development,
   and app connectivity applications.
 * Yammer, a platform for creating enterprise social networks.


SUBSCRIPTION PLANS[EDIT]

Microsoft 365 offers subscription plans aimed at different needs and market
segments, providing different sets of features at different price
points.[61][62] Microsoft has also offered Office 365 subscriptions to students
of institutions who have licensed Office software for their faculty.[63][64]


CONSUMER[EDIT]

Aimed at mainstream consumers, both plans offer access to Microsoft Office
applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Publisher, and Access) for
home/non-commercial use on one computer (Windows, macOS, and mobile devices),
with access to additional online-based services and premium creative content, 1
TB of OneDrive storage with Advanced Security, 60 minutes of Skype international

   Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Publisher, and Access for
   home/non-commercial use on up to five computers, phones or tablets (Windows,
   Mac, Android, iOS). Additional benefits include 1 TB of additional OneDrive

   area).[65][69] A version of Personal purchased on a discounted four-year
   plan, known as Office 365 University, allowing use on two devices by one
   user, was available for those in post-secondary institutions until 2019.[70]
 * Microsoft 365 Family (formerly Office 365 Home): Aimed at mainstream

SECURITY[EDIT]

In December 2011, Microsoft announced that the Office 365 platform was now
compliant with the ISO/IEC 27001 security standards, the European Union's Data
Protection Directive (through the signing of model clauses), and the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act for health care environments in the
United States. At the same time, Microsoft also unveiled a new "Trust Center"
portal, containing further information on its privacy policies and security
practices for the service.[85][86] In May 2012, Microsoft announced that Office
365 was now compliant with the Federal Information Security Management Act:
compliance with the act would now allow Office 365 to be used by U.S. government
agencies.[87]

In spite of claiming to comply with European data protection standards, and in
spite of existing Safe Harbor agreements, Microsoft has admitted that it will
not refrain from handing over data stored on its European servers to US
authorities under the Patriot Act.[88]

In Finland, FICORA has warned Office 365 users of phishing incidents and
break-ins that have caused losses of millions of euros.[89][90] In September
2019, NCSC-FI (National Cyber Security Centre of Finland) created a detailed
guide on how to protect Microsoft Office 365 against phishing attempts and any
data breaches.[91]

In July 2019, the German state of Hesse outlawed the use of Office 365 in
educational institutions, citing privacy risks.[92]

In December 2020, the US Department of Commerce was breached via Office 365. The
attackers were able to access staff emails for several months.[93][94]

A July 1, 2021 cybersecurity advisory from British (NCSC) and American (NSA,
FBI, CISA) security agencies warned of a GRU brute-force campaign from mid-2019
to the present (July 2021) that focused a "significant amount" of activity on
Microsoft Office 365 cloud services.[95][96]


RECEPTION[EDIT]

TechRadar gave the 2013 update of Office 365 a 4.5 out of 5, praising its
administration interfaces for being accessible to users with any level of
expertise, the seamless integration of OneDrive Pro into the Office 2013 desktop
applications, and the service as a whole for being suitable in small business
environments, while still offering "powerful" options for use in larger
companies (such as data loss protection and the ability to integrate with a
local Active Directory instance). However, the service was severely criticized
for how it handled its 2013 update for existing users, and its lack of
integration with services such as Skype and Yammer.[59]

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017, Office 365 revenue had exceeded that
of conventional license sales of Microsoft Office software for the first
time.[97]
