After 30 years, the ‘Office’ brand is being retired. I knew that Office 365 had been rebranded Microsoft 365, but I didnt realise they were doing away with ‘Office’ in its entirety...i actually feel a little sad!!

It’s going to be hard not to say the word ‘office’ after all these years!

Gotta love the strategy of just calling everything Microsoft 365. I swear Microsoft would be 10x more successful if they hired someone just to name all their products.

 

Here’s $500,000/yr - just name things in a way that doesn’t confuse the crap out of everyone. That’s it.

“Apps aren't changing, and Office will still be available as a standalone purchase.”

 

32 years in, Microsoft has decided to rebrand “Microsoft Office”

From the start “Office 365” was a bad choice. I got tongue-tied trying to explain the difference between Office 365 and the Office product suite. Microsoft 365 is easier to discuss. I welcome the name change!

True. Especially when users had office 2016, office 2019 or office 365!
