Η Microsoft is preparing to make a major change to the Microsoft Office brand. After more than 30 years, Microsoft Office will become “Microsoft 365.”
Office apps like Excel, Outlook, Word and PowerPoint won't go away, but Microsoft will now refer to them as part of Microsoft 365 instead of Microsoft Office.
Η Microsoft προωθεί αυτή τη νέα επωνυμία εδώ και χρόνια, αφού μετονόμασε τις συνδρομές του Office 365 σε Microsoft 365 πριν από δύο χρόνια, αλλά οι αλλαγές που θα έρθουν φαίνεται να είναι πολύ βαθύτερες. “Τους επόμενους μήνες, το Office.com, η εφαρμογή Office για κινητά και η εφαρμογή Office για Windows θα γίνουν η εφαρμογή Microsoft 365, με ένα νέο εικονίδιο, νέα appearance and even more possibilities", he says Microsoft.
This means that if you use any of the dedicated Office apps, they will soon all be named Microsoft 365 with a new logo. Οι πρώτες αλλαγές λογότυπου και σχεδίασης θα εμφανιστούν στο Office.com τον Νοέμβριο, ακολουθούμενες από την εφαρμογή Office σε Windows, αλλά και από τις εφαρμογές για iOS και Android which will be renewed in January.
Microsoft 365 will now host Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Loop, Clipchamp, Stream and Microsoft's new Designer app. A central Microsoft 365 app for both mobile and desktop will include a hub for all your files and documents along with custom tags to group and organize content.
However, the Microsoft Office brand isn't going away anytime soon. Microsoft will continue to offer one-time purchases of Office applications to consumers and businesses through the Office 2021 and Office LTSC programs. Microsoft Office is now a legacy brand for Microsoft, and that means when new ones are announced characteristics, we will see them in Microsoft 365 and not in Microsoft Office.
