10 things we love about Microsoft Office 2013
Office 2013 was designed with IT admins in mind. The new version of Office features improved deployment options, better security, and a strong cloud connection.
Improved interface
The sleek, modern interface provides fast access to server admin tools, Office applications, and SharePoint site editing.
Cloud connectivity
Cloud connectivity enables workers to access files across multiple devices - and stream Office applications to Windows PCs.
Multiple input options
Office 2013 applications are equally at home with keyboard and mouse as they are with touch and stylus.
More social
Office 2013 is far more social, with the addition of Skype and Yammer; the latter provides microblogging within SharePoint 2013 communities.
OneNote is touch-friendly
OneNote and Lync are the initial Office Windows 8-style apps; OneNote MX's radial menu is especially touch-friendly.
New dev tools
New development tools let enterprises build their own Office and SharePoint apps and distribute them through Microsoft or internal app stores.
Better contacts
Office 2013's People Card tool provides detailed information about you and your contacts.
Built-in DLP
Exchange 2013 includes data loss prevention and e-discovery capabilities to monitor and protect data.
Improved user experience
SharePoint 2013's simplified user experience saves effort for content contributors and developers alike.
Powerful PowerPoint
The PowerPoint presenter view provides extra control over shows, such as previews of upcoming slides, while collaboration tools enable co-authoring.
