Microsoft managed to make using Office for the Mac easy for anyone familiar with Office for Windows, while also integrating it more closely than ever into the OS X ecosystem. Office 365 (at Amazon). Made with Mac in mind, Office 2016 for Mac gives you access to your favorite Office applications - anywhere, anytime and with anyone. Includes new versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote. See what's new in Office 2016. Your school may offer. Office 2016 for Mac for free.

But from the look of things online, it would seem that Office 2016 is no big deal. From the Office business website, you would get the impression that Office 2016 is just a feature within Office 365:

Instead of Office 2016 being displayed prominently on their website, you have to hunt down information about traditional, perpetual licenses of Office 2016. And do you want to see a feature set of the Office 2016 suites? Good luck! You’ll soon find yourself lost in a maze of hyperlinks, desperately searching for information on Office 2016 but only finding page after page devoted to Office 365. For example, there are no perpetual licenses listed in the “Office for business” category on the supposedly comprehensive products page. Instead, you get the impression that if you’re a business owner then Office 365 is your only option:

What’s going on here?

My take on the situation is that Microsoft is trying to encourage as many people as possible to break with tradition and sign up for Office 365. Consequently, they have positioned Office 365 more prominently on their website than Office 2016. Subscriptions are a more steady revenue model for them. It’s also more lucrative since many businesses in the past have just skipped versions of Office: for example, a business using Office 2007 could skip an upgrade to Office 2010 and instead wait for Office 2013. If Microsoft can get a customer like that to sign up for Office 365, then over that six-year period the customer is paying them more than if they purchased traditional licenses and skipped a version.

So Office 365 is here to stay and Microsoft is trying to convince as many people as possible to jump on board. All in all, it’s not a bad idea to jump to Office 365, but just remember that it is a trade-off. (If you’re wondering about what is best for your business, give Mirazon a call. We’ll help you weigh the options.) But if you’re not yet ready to drink the Office 365 Kool-Aid and instead want to stay with traditional licensing, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s what you need to know…
