We are still at the level of unconfirmed rumors but the possibility that it is time of debut Office 2016 for Windows are many. The “D-Day”, according to well informed, is scheduled for September 22 and if all goes as planned the productivity suite Microsoft finally embrace the operating system from Redmond after being made available (in July) for the Mac OS platform and before (in June, in the form of mobile apps Word, Excel and PowerPoint) for Android devices.
From the German site WinFuture arrived in recent hours fairly accurate indications on how to launch the new Office. The first licenses will be addressed to professionals and end users, while all the other versions, and in particular enterprise dedicated to companies, should follow in a short time or at the latest by the end of 2015.
How is the new Office
The hallmark of the new release of the suite there are only operational features of individual applications but also chromatic details. Office 2016 will be presenting a theme completely colored, the same as that implemented in versions for Mac, iOS and Android and of course very similar to the aesthetics of the version optimized for touch systems carrying Windows 10. If the colors do not love here is still a theme in dark colors different from the classic shades of the various Word, Excel and so on.
In short, the Windows version of the suite can be described as very similar to that developed for the Apple computer and this release because the two are virtually identical and are not significantly different, except for the necessary precautions to answer better to the various hardware components (see for example the Retina display Apple).
The differences in Office 2013
What has changed since the last edition of the suite is easily understood. Stands out in particular a function of simultaneous editing of documents, the so-called co-authoring, and that is a tool that allows two or more people to work in parallel on a document, highlighting in real time the changes.
Word, entering into the merits of the individual programs, will make a new tab called Design, designed to handle more comfortably layout, color and font files. Excel, however, will be equipped with more intelligence to advise the graphs and diagrams that suit the types of data entered in the cells, providing combinations of hot keys, auto-completion and optimized formulas. One command, Pivot Table, will also allow you to filter large volumes of data. PowerPoint, finally, will be enriched by a new panel of animations to simplify the creation of rich documents iconographic contributions.
In terms of communication tools, the most important news for Outlook is shown in the ability to organize incoming mail into thematic units while the step of OneNote is the ability to recognize handwritten messages .
Prices
Considering that there is still no official announcement, the cost of Office 2016 (few) information circulated on the Internet of course be taken with pliers . It is still very credible hypothesis that the new suite should be available on terms very similar to those of Office 2013. We talk about 140 € for the version Home & amp; Student and about 240 Euros for the Home & amp; Business.
Windows 10 to the third round of corrections?
From July 29, the date of issue, to now have three updates that affected the new operating system from Microsoft. And all products in less than two weeks. The last package was made available in mid-August (the first was the terminus of the day 5) and should solve some problems encountered by different users on the online store, which highlighted problems of access and downloads of the app made available online . We use the conditional because it is not very clear what the software is actually correct and when.
The only thing certain is that the last update is cumulative and therefore incorporates the amendments to the two previous update , preventing users from having to chase the first two releases. According to reports from the specialized site Zdnet, the first update baked by Microsoft for its new software should focus almost exclusively on the resolution of problems and technical problems (problems with the browser Internet Explorer and Edge and the Office suite), rather than real its “bug”. In Redmond, in short, are working closely to cure the defects of youth of the new creature and accomplice in the summer, you can perhaps forgive the fact of being very stingy with details on the corrections made.
