The three major Microsoft Office pieces include the word processor (Word), the spreadsheet (Excel) and the visual presentation tool (PowerPoint.)Īccess is a database management tool, while Publisher allows for the presentation of various marketing materials. By contrast, someone may use Word, Excel and PowerPoint frequently, and rarely or never use Access, Publisher or OneNote. They are often used by a diverse user base, for example, college students, interns, or front line workers in IT. The Word, Excel and PowerPoint applications in Microsoft Office are familiar household names, even to people who are not familiar with the details of the Office suite’s evolution. These could be separated into what you might call the “three greater applications” and the “three lesser applications” that receive much lower use by the average end-user. The six core programs in Microsoft Office are: "Office LTSC 2021 includes the Teams client app, but only includes the free or the Exploratory service for Microsoft Teams," Microsoft acknowledged.The core components of Microsoft Office are the six items present in the original package, notwithstanding the later addition of services like OneDrive and SharePoint and a web design tool called FrontPage. One of the most puzzling constraints on Office LTSC 2021 is its exclusion of a full license to Teams, the most-hyped product/service in Microsoft's inventory since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020. "Microsoft won't provide code fixes to resolve non-security related problems," the company spelled out on an online informational page. That support will consist of security updates and apparently only security updates. According to Microsoft's support lifecycle site, Office LTSC 2021 will receive support to Oct.
The most notable new limitation to this iteration? A dramatic decrease in support: Office LTSC 2021 will be supported for only five years, half the time of most past Office suites (and two years shorter than the truncated-before-launch Office 2019).
It openly puts policies on perpetual license versions or limits what the software can do to push customers toward subscriptions. Microsoft vastly prefers customers opt for the subscription plans of those latter product names because the revenue is first, never-ending and second, regular and thus knowable (more or less) in advance).
These characteristics are just some of Office LTSC's that Microsoft has long used to cast the perpetual license as second-class (or even third-class) when compared to the rent-not-buy Office 365 and Microsoft 365.
