This quarter, Office 365\u2019s upgrade will focus on cloud-powered intelligent services, designed to maximize productivity while saving time. And Office 365\u2019s upgrade wouldn\u2019t be an upgrade if there were nothing new in Word, the business application that put Microsoft on the map. To that end, Word is getting two new features called Researcher and Editor. As you may have guessed, Researcher is designed to help you find reliable sources of information by using Bing\u2019s Knowledge Graph to help search and then cite sources in your Word document. In the future, Researcher\u2019s body of reference materials will also include sources such as national science and health centers, well-known encyclopedias, and more. The feature will be available on mobile devices too.<\/p>\n
Now that you have Researcher to help you start your paper, you can count on Editor to help you finish it. This new feature builds on the existing spellchecker and thesaurus, and in addition to the wavy red line under a misspelled word and wavy blue line under bad grammar, Editor uses a gold line for suggestions on how to improve your writing.<\/p>\n

Currently, when making a presentation, you\u2019re forced to use the 1-2-3-4 linear method of showing your slides. The problem is that you can\u2019t change your presentation order as needed without having to exit PowerPoint\u2019s slideshow mode, and let\u2019s face it, sometimes you do make mistakes and need to go back or move to a different slide. But thanks to PowerPoint\u2019s new feature, Zoom, you can now present your slides in any order you want at any time without a hiccup.<\/p>\n

The time has come for Office 365\u2019s Outlook to get the Focused Inbox which has been available for iOS and Android for some time now. If you\u2019re not familiar with Focused Inbox, the feature separates your inbox into two tabs: Focused tab which includes emails that matter most to you and the \u201cOther\u201d tab for everything else. This makes it easy to identify email that needs your attention so you never miss anything important.<\/p>\n
Not only that, but as you move email in or out of the Focused tab, Outlook learns from your behavior and adjusts to your priorities. You can also flag someone by typing the @ symbol in the body of the email and pick whoever you wish to flag. This will automatically highlight that person\u2019s email and their email address will be added to the To: line. If you are mentioned, the @ symbol will show up in Outlook so you can quickly find all email where you are mentioned.<\/p>\n

Microsoft\u2019s Office 365 platform isn\u2019t one of the most popular productivity suites in the world by luck. The company\u2019s expertise in creating functional, innovative and easy-to-use business applications has won over thousands of users for decades even before the cloud.
