Microsoft releases preview version of Office 2016

It is compatible with Windows 7, 8 and Windows 10 PCs, laptops and tablets

Microsoft released a preview version of Office 2016 on May 6, 2015. Microsoft Office 2016 promises to offer better security, compliance, and deployment features, giving organizations more control over sensitive data and IT more flexibility in deployment and management.

Key features:

Your documents, anywhere: Across the Office 2016 applications, it’s easier to use the power of feature-rich applications to create, open, edit and save files in the cloud from your desktop, so you can access them from anywhere and on any device. In addition, new modern attachments in Outlook helps you to attach files from OneDrive and automatically configure permission for the recipients—without leaving Outlook.

Smart Applications: Applications will learn as you work, taking advantage of subtle cues and clues to help you stay on task and get more out of Office. Tell Me, a new search tool available in Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, serves up the commands you need by simply typing what you want to do. Clutter—a new Exchange feature that lights up in Outlook—uses machine learning to analyze your email patterns and de-clutter your inbox by moving lower priority messages out of your way and into a new Clutter folder. And Insights, powered by Bing, finds you contextual information from the web within the reading experience.

The new preview is available to Office 365 subscribers and is compatible with Windows 7, 8 and Windows 10 PCs, laptops and tablets. If you don’t have an Office 365 subscription, then they can download a trial version of Office 2016.

Note: Office 2016 preview is still a work in progress, and while not all of the features that expected to be shipped in the fall are available for use now, new features will be added every month.
