The heart of Office Home and Business 2016 is creating a network of users through cloud service. Files can be accessed, edited, and shared from anywhere. Office applications are designed to support you in your daily work in the best possible way. This is achieved, for example, through more efficient editing options and advanced help functions. At first glance, the individual programs have not changed much, but several new features have been added.
New features in Office Home & Business 2016
- With the cloud, you can connect with other users, share files, and be spatially flexible.
- Office Online syncs with your OneDrive account, allowing you to view and edit photos, documents, and other files from anywhere.

- New, darker screen backgrounds in the "Black theme" allow for eye-friendly work.
- Working in the Cloud with OneDrive
One of the goals of Microsoft Office Home and Business 2016 is to use the OneDrive cloud service. You have 15 GB of storage space at your disposal, which you can fill with photos, documents, music, and other files as you like. With simplified access to your data, you can open and edit it from almost anywhere. This makes you mobile and flexible. You can also share content with friends and colleagues in the cloud, allowing for project collaboration. With real-time networking, you can precisely track what is currently being changed in which document.
Seamless transition for Office 2013 users
Users of Office 2013 will find themselves directly at home in Microsoft Office 2016 Home and Business. Naturally, there are almost no innovations in the programs. The improvements in the new Office suite primarily serve to streamline work and mutual networking. Therefore, Microsoft deliberately avoided too many new features within the individual applications. The neat design, already known from the previous version, can also be found in Office 2016 Business. The user-friendly interface offers quick access to all programs and tools.
Office Home and Business 2016 is aimed at businesses and private users and offers a stable foundation for daily work on a PC. Popular Office applications such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint support you in completing tasks.
