Office 365 applications

Familiar desktop applications such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint let you create and work together across devices, platforms, and teams. And the web and mobile versions of Office desktop applications help you get more done anywhere while helping keep your online files secure. Whether you’re working online or off from a desktop, tablet, or phone, Office 365 has you covered.

 

Business email and calendaring

Email helps you start a conversation in a familiar place. With a group inbox, calendar, and conversation, teams can self-organize and keep work moving forward. And they can share files as cloud attachments in email, and emphasize important conversations with @mentions. 

 ​

 

​

File storage and sharing

Connect your people to their content with file storage and sharing. Cloud storage makes it simple to store, sync, and share files so anyone can access them confidently and securely. Manage shared documents and keep them at your fingertips no matter where you are with a mobile app that connects you to shared content.

 ​

 

Online meetings and business voice

Call, meet, and engage remotely and in real time with online meetings that include audio, HD video, instant messaging, and screen sharing. For advanced, cloud-based communications needs, you can meet, call, and text across a vast array of audio devices and IP phones.

​

A hub for teamwork

Microsoft Teams is a hub for teamwork with customizable options, security, and built-in access to familiar Office 365 apps. Bring together all your team’s chats, meetings, files, and apps so you can easily connect with people you work with on a regular basis on core projects.

​

Data protection

People need to collaborate and share information inside and outside of their organization more than ever. Office 365 data loss prevention helps keep sensitive information from straying into the wrong hands – without hindering end-user productivity. Rights management capabilities built directly into the service and Office apps let users securely share documents and send emails so only those with the right permissions can access the information.

​

Compliance solutions

To help you meet your compliance obligations and reduce cost and risk, Office 365 offers solutions such as Customer Lockbox, Advanced eDiscovery, and Advanced Data Governance. Advanced Data Governance and Advanced eDiscovery capabilities leverage machine learning to help you intelligently retain relevant data and reduce discovery costs, while Customer Lockbox lets you control access to your data during service operations.

​

Threat protection

Office 365 is secured by design on all fronts. Exchange Server blocks 100% of known malware and significantly reduces spam. Office 365 threat-protection capabilities help defend against risky attachments, malicious links, and new malware. And its security-management and threat-intelligence capabilities alert you to suspicious behavior and provide actionable insights into global attack patterns.

​

Office 365 Trust Center

To earn and maintain our customers’ trust, Office 365 meets key international, regional, and industry-specific standards and terms, with more than 1,000 security and privacy controls that map to more than 25 key compliance certifications. To help customers meet their own compliance obligations, Office 365 transparently shares third-party audit reports, technical documentation, and opportunities for direct engagement via the Financial Services Compliance Program.
