So its best waiting till after 21st Apr before purchasing?

@ProTechShow 4 жыл бұрын

The subscriptions won't really change (with the exception of F1/F3 which has already happened), so it's fine to purchase now. You'll keep the same services - they'll just change their names on 21st.

@@ProTechShow my college provides me Microsoft via login with College Email. it says Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus. Where do I fall into your video about Microsoft services. from the account page on Microsoft in Word it shows the logo of Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook, OneNote, Publisher, Access & Skype for Business. Should I keep on getting my Microsoft through my college or subscribing personally is better?

@ProTechShow 2 жыл бұрын

@@TazKidNoah this video is more about the cloud services, whereas ProPlus is the client apps (they use the same name for both, which is a tad confusing). You've probably got an A1 Plus subscription, which is in-between an E1 and E3 but with some education-specific tweaks. If your college is paying for it and it does what you need, then you may as well make the most of it while it's free!

Great video. Could anybody advise for a small business with existing Win 10 Licenses and a Microsoft account what business package to go for? Microsoft or Office? The main reason for its use is to be able to work on the same shared docs between laptops and to communicate easier between staff with calendar etc Thank you

Thanks! I was testing out Adobe Premiere Pro & After Effects when I did this one, but I settled on Davinci Resolve instead. I'm just putting the finishing touches on an update to this video that was done in Resolve, so feel free to check that out (should be live in about 12h) and let me know how you think they compare. Adobe is ~£600/year, but the free version of Resolve does everything I need... easy choice in the end.

Hi can you throw some light on the price of different licenses and what would be the suitable package for home office use of word, excel, ppt and outlook??

@ProTechShow 4 жыл бұрын

I have an updated video that covers the home editions, and includes a number of changes which occurred just this month. That should help you with the options, and in the description of that video I have links to the current prices for each plan. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/brWUaKyitbjSkoU.html You might also want to look at Office 2019 Home & Business if you prefer to pay one-off rather than on a subscription.

I hate the ribbon concept as a default option. I'd like the Office 2003 interface with concise menus. The new Office should have an option for the old conventional interface (with added functionality in the menus, of course) but the easiness and intuitive button layout. The ribbon makes you crazy remembering where every function is embedded and it's no good for your eyes as well!

I bought monthly Office 365 Personal subscription, will I get Windows 10 on April 21st, after Office 365 rename to Microsoft 365? And will the price stay same? Thanks

@ProTechShow 4 жыл бұрын

Your subscription will be renamed to Microsoft 365 Personal, but the features and price will remain the same. The current rule of "M365 = O365 + More" will no longer apply to all services after 21st April. I'm planning to do an updated video that includes all of the changes, so if you're subscribed be sure to check that out when it lands.

Do you know if there will be Office + Win 10 package?

@ProTechShow 4 жыл бұрын

I'd say it's unlikely on the personal/family plans. Most consumers buy a PC with Windows on it already. The Windows 10 licences included with current M365 plans are Enterprise upgrades. You need to have Windows 10 Pro already in order to use them, and the Enterprise features are really focused at businesses.

This is an old video. There's an updated version here which covers the current range of M/O365 services: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/brWUaKyitbjSkoU.html You've not said what product/edition you're using, or what features you're missing; but if you're using the web apps or mobile apps rather than the full desktop client app, they will be quite limited. Any subscription in the linked video that doesn't come with the "client apps" would be very limiting unless you already have a copy of Office.
