A few months ago Paul Bowden, a Software Development Engineer from Microsoft for Office Deployment & Manageability did a presentation on “Deployment & Management of Office 365 ProPlus on Mac”.
I’ve not seen this information elsewhere so I thought I’d post his presentation here:
- Office for Mac Community links and sites for more info
- Native applications on the Mac versions, sizes, and contents of each app
- Benefits of deployment architecture
- How to deploy the bits in the enterprise
- Deploying Office with Jamf
- Deployment source automation (cached vs ondemand)
- Network endpoints
- Activation and licensing
- License storage & conversion
- VL to O365 license conversion
- Office for Mac update channels
- Update cadence recommendations
- Microsoft AutoUpdate (MAU)
- MAU caching server
- Roadmap
- Today’s current deployment model of 4GB pagages
- The future of Office update management
- Deploying application settings
