Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Office 2016

Microsoft Office 2016 is being used across our entire company for multiple purposes. We are utilizing Excel for spreadsheet creation and analysis, as well as Word for simple documents like memos and sign-up sheets. The simplicity of its use allows our entire staff, no matter how seasoned or technically savvy, to fully engage in leadership and management of systems and procedures.
  • Simple editing and formatting. Standardizing your documents with your own brand goes a long way.
  • Implementation of multiple files. It seems like you can work with almost any type of document in Office 2016.
  • The industry standard. Whether you're presenting among your peers, or traveling to speak to like-minded individuals, you can count on your presentation integrating seamlessly.
  • Building on previous versions. It seems like there has not been a major change since 2012.
  • Clippy! Where is the help when you need it?
  • Add a design element. For the price, I am sure you could manage to add a simple design and photo editing program to the package that adds value to your customers and meets the needs of social media users.
  • Lowering labor costs from an administrative perspective.
  • Timely consolidation of like-files.
  • Spreadsheet manipulation in our shared files allows multiple departments to access and edit what they need, when they need it.
There is no substitute. It is not only the standard in our industry, but the standard across the globe. If you are not utilizing Office, then you are not going to be integrated into any system that you share with your peers. It only makes sense to use this software. It is as complete a package as you can find for all your business needs.
I do feel that the Help section is more limited than it has ever been. As users rely more heavily on the software, I would anticipate more problems that need to be solved by your programs. Having more accessible data by your users will make everyone's lives easier, especially those who are dealing with open IT tickets at Microsoft.

The most important documents for your business are generated through Office 2016. From memos to press releases, you have the tools that you need to address the day-to-day activity of your business. However, I do not feel that Office has truly been improved upon in the last 7-9 years. Perhaps adding a graphic design or photo-editing software with more advanced capabilities would make it fit in with its users in a more significant way.
