Office 365 is arguably the best desktop tool available for personal and professional use, and millions of people use it regularly. Now, one of the cool things about Office 365 is the fact that, depending on the subscription, users can share with friends or family.
Some people wonder how to get there and how many people are supported. Well, in terms of support, it all depends on which version you are using. The one at $ 99 per year will allow up to 5 people to share, which is not bad if you ask us.

In addition, we must point out that each person has 1 TB of OneDrive storage, 60 minutes of free Skype minutes to call any mobile number in eight countries and any landline number in more than 60 countries. Plus, the service brings advanced email security to the table for Outlook, and that's something everyone can enjoy.
