Microsoft Office 365, the limit on the number of devices drops

Immediately the positive news, important for all Office users, whether at work, at home or on the go: with the new features of the Office 365 package, Office can be installed on an unlimited number of devices to obtain optimal working conditions, better productivity and finally uninterrupted operational flexibility at any time and with any device, even mobile.

As explained by the blog Paola's House, previously the 365Home and Personal had very narrow limits with 10 for the first and nothing for the second providing for installation on a single PC, Mac or tablet. This is one of the innovations that Microsoft announced in Milan, today Tuesday 27 November, during the event Office Smart Breakfast which, in addition to the novelties of the new package, also saw the results of a survey conducted by Doxa on the digital habits of Italians. And in particular on the now "familiar" relationship with the Office suite, so important that if Office didn't exist, 82 percent of users declared that would have difficulty carrying out their daily activities.

Not only one's own but also those of the family nucleus given that in 8 cases out of 10, ie 83 percent, the suite is used by at least one other member of the nucleus. And this is also favored by the extension from 5 to 6 the number of licenses available for subscription. In addition, with 99 euros per year you can get six licenses for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote. An increased sharing that will facilitate the increase in the average digitization of Italians (according to Doxa over 68 percent at the end of 2017) not only among young people. One of the facilities for a better knowledge of the potential offered by the Office package concerns the possibility of managing your 365 subscription directly from Microsoft Account portal so you can directly manage subscriptions, extensions, benefits.

And also because, as Doxa pointed out, Italians know just over half of the potential of Office, such as the availability of the Clou space (important and useful today!) and the possibility of extending Office to multiple devices. Unmissable at the end of the day the review of the practical demonstrations of the tools introduced or implemented within the new release, from 3D animation and Morphing for Power Point for more engaging presentations, to the Word Research Tool (reliable and verified sources only), to Windows Ink on Office to use the pen, up to the Translator presentation for Power Point. “Increase the average digitization of the country and with these innovative features – he said Mario Colombo, Office Category Lead of Microsoft Italy – we provide a great range of tools to face the new increasingly digital lifestyle”.
