It's a clever way to bridge the worlds of Office and Mac OS X. The usual Mac menu that sits atop Mac applications is hidden as well, although you can reveal it by moving your cursor to the top of the screen. The Ribbon is far more prominent and now sits close to the top of the screen rather than (as before) beneath a long row of icons for doing things such as opening and closing files, printing and so on. That's largely in part because the Ribbon has been redone, and now looks and works as it does in the Windows version of Office.
It's less cluttered, cleaner and sleeker-looking, more logically organized, more colorful and simpler to use. The moment you run any Office application, you know you've left the aging Office 2011 behind. It will sell as a standalone Mac product later this month.)
It’s currently only available as part of a subscription to Office 365, which allows you to install Office on multiple devices. (Note: Mac for Office 2016 requires Yosemite OS X or better. Office 2016 for Mac sports a far better interface than Office 2011, integrates well with Microsoft’s OneDrive cloud storage and dramatically improves Outlook. But Mac owners had to wait until early July for the final release of the full suite, including the core applications Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Hints of what the new Office would offer have been out for quite a while, notably the preview of Outlook, introduced in October 2014. Mac users of Office who have felt left out in the cold by Microsoft (because the last version, Office 2011 for Mac, was released in October 2010) now have reason to be pleased: The final version of Office 2016 for Mac brings the suite out of the dark ages and into the modern world.
