Here are the prices of the different plans: So, no worries if you were an existing Office 365 subscriber, you’ll get additional apps & features for the same price under a new name “Microsoft 365”. The prices haven’t changed following the rebranding of Office 365 into Microsoft 365. What Subscription Plans Are available For Microsoft 365 (Previously Office 365)? So Microsoft 365 is a far more feature-rich subscription service, but if you only want the classic office apps (Excel, Word, PowerPoint…) with no need for any additional tools or cloud services, then Office 2019 is the one for you. It includes the latest Office Apps (automatically updated to the latest version without a repurchase), in addition to 1Tb of OneDrive Cloud Storage, Emailing capabilities, Microsoft Teams app for communication & collaboration, 60 Skype minutes for phone calls, and the Microsoft Family Safety (to monitor kids) & Microsoft Editor (to Improve your writing through AI) apps and much more. Microsoft 365 (previously known as Office 365) is a subscription service (monthly or yearly), for individuals, families (up to 6 people) and businesses. It has no cloud capabilities, and to update it to newer versions you’ll need to purchase an entirely new license. Office 2019 is a one-time purchase for 1 PC or 1Mac, of the classic 2019 versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. How Is Microsoft 365 (Previously Office 365) Different From Office 2019?
Microsoft 365 tries to integrate its corporate apps and services with the personal / home ones more seamlessly to be all encompassing of your life (personal & professional).
So Microsoft decided to do what they do best, and that is to up their game and rebrand their subscription service into an all encompassing “subscription for your life”, that went beyond just the traditional Office capabilities and now offers features to manage your financials, store your files on the cloud, safely handle your passwords (coming soon), improve your writing through AI, track and manage your kids internet and device usage, see their movements on a map and get notified when they leave / arrive at a specific location.
Microsoft’s Office 365 subscription was facing fierce competition in the productivity & collaboration space from Google’s free docs, sheets & slides and from the G Suite, Slack, Dropbox, Trello, Mint…etc services, the plethora of which left users in disarray, and ate from Microsoft’s Office 365’s pie. Expansions that now include a wide range of cloud services, AI capabilities and enhanced safety measures. Microsoft went through this rebranding of Office 365 to reflect the continuous innovation and ever expanding capabilities of its subscription service that went way beyond the traditional Office features.
