@scottalanmiller said in Microsoft Office - Licensing Questions For 3 Scenarios: @flaxking said in Microsoft Office - Licensing Questions For 3 Scenarios: I think you must be missing what's going on here. This removes the requirement to integrate more directly with MS Office, instead relying on a separate library that is provided standalone from Office and thus allows saving to Excel. We've had zero issues with using this library, which is actually pretty uncommon for us. The issue is flexibility. Using third party libraries, you can integrate with Excel or with anything else. Using the Office libraries, every user, in ever system, is bound by the limitations of the most problematic. It makes deployments more costly, and more complex. That's true, it's the kind of self perpetuating lock-in that has served Microsoft so well. People use Excel, and they ask for saving to Excel spreadsheet, so we create the integration specially to allow Excel and not include ODF, then we help keep the industry locked into using Excel because that's all we support unless you want to just save to CSV. As for the cost and complexity of deployments... that could be true, except that the installation of our main software is already so complex and costly that dealing with potentially installing this library is the easiest part. I think we probably only have one other developer who would be able to figure out how to install it. I've never heard of any client's IT that have been able to figure out how to install it (just calls from those who have tried), client services has to do literally every install.

@wrx7m said in Office 365 User Quarantine - How Do You Access After Redesign?: @dbeato said in Office 365 User Quarantine - How Do You Access After Redesign?: @wrx7m I have not found a way to do so, you can create a folder in Outlook to manage it from there. Example here http://www.expta.com/2015/02/how-to-add-access-to-office-365-eop.html Have you done this? The link that includes admin seems like it would try to access the admin portion, not the specific user's quarantine. If this works as I need, I wonder if there is a policy to set this up, or if it would be a manual, one-by-one endeavor. I have not but I can test.

@black3dynamite That I haven't tried. It's worth a check!

@Kelly said in How would you run Windows applications in your preferred Linux Distro?: So we have a business need that requires we run Microsoft Office. This is not on the table for discussion of whether or not that can be changed. With that out of the way, how would you all handle that in your preferred distro? We're looking at running Fedora/Ubuntu/Korora on Dell laptops, but we have to have MS Office because we have to be able guarantee the output we produce is viewed by our government customers exactly as we create it. Running a full Windows VM is an option. I've wondered if there is something the equivalent of Parallels, where it exposes guest applications to the host OS, for Linux. Any thoughts, questions, etc.? there are 2 options: wine or full vm with windows licence. according to the hypervisor your use there is a mock up to add win apps to the linux menu when the VM is running in background. in my experience wine is basically broken. anyway you can have a look at the compatibility list here where the installer of MS works or not if apps work has to be searched through the DB

So far the KMS key isn't registering.

If it is purely the sync option, I believe you can simply remove it. Since it is a sync, everything will be left as it is now.
