Microsoft Office is one of the well-known software available across multiple platforms. The suite of apps includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint and more. But a few years back Microsoft announced a subscription-based Office called Office 365. So what are the differences between Office 2016 and Office 365? In this post, we will compare Office 2016 vs Office 365.

Office 2016 vs office 365

Office 2016 is a one-time purchase model which means you pay a single time for the bundled apps based on the type of package you opt and you can use as long as you want without paying for any additional license. One-time purchases are available for both PCs (such as Office Home & Student 2016) and Macs (such as Office Home & Student 2016 for Mac).

But the downside with one-time purchase is that there is no upgrade option available. This means when the newer version of Office is released, you will have to purchase it again if you want the latest version paying the full price.

On the other hand Office, 365 is a subscription based model. Office 365  includes the most recent version of Office, which currently is Office 2016. It comes with the applications like Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, plus extra online storage, tech support at no extra cost, and more.

You can either choose to pay the subscription on a monthly basis of go for a yearly plan. If you are going for Office 365 Home, you can share the plan with 4 members of the family. And with Office 365, you get the latest version of the apps when they are released, so you will be updated with the latest features.
