editMicrosoft 365 subscription
editHello to Wikipedia community!
Is there someone that can kindly answer this question?
I have 1 Microsoft account configured in 2 pc both mine. Should I subscribe Microsoft 365 personal or Microsoft 365 family?
Many, many and many thanks in advance!!! 2001:B07:6442:8903:ED5C:BCCA:108D:3E6E (talk) 07:50, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- Personal is for a single human to use. It sounds like that's what you want. Have you looked at Microsoft's free Web-based Office to see whether that meets your needs, if it's available where you are? There are also other office suites if you wanted to look into those. --47.155.46.15 (talk) 08:42, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- I had a Microsoft 365 Email Essentials account grandfathered, but now I am looking for whole-domain email providers with catch-all capability, since GoDaddy forced Microsoft 365 Email on me, and Microsoft refuses to support the catch-all in my former GoDaddy Workspace Webmail email account and a substitute for the former inclusion of that account with my domain registration. Thanks in advance! 24.185.206.49 (talk) 17:15, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- There are so many that you're probably going to have to do some Web searching yourself. If you want more "complex" features you might wind up having to pay some money. If you really want to "go big", you can always host your own e-mail server on a domain you own, and then you can configure it to do whatever you want because it's your server. --47.155.46.15 (talk) 05:29, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
- Microsoft 365 personal only includes a license for one PC. So, you should go to Microsoft 365 family (5 licenses). Ruslik_Zero 20:27, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- Are you getting this from somewhere? The website for Microsoft 365 states Personal lets you "Use up to five devices simultaneously". --47.155.46.15 (talk) 05:29, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
- It seems that this has changed. Before it was 1 pc + 1 mobile device + 1 tablet. Ruslik_Zero 20:33, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
- And finally I should subscribe Personal or Family? I can’t still understand… --94.247.8.9 (talk) 09:18, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
