Microsoft has pushed the suggested migration date kick-off for these new plans back from October 1 to December 1, 2015, The reason for the date change: 'The renewal experience will be best for users who have the latest version of Office,' meaning Office 2016. The three: Office 365 Business, Business Essentials and Business Premium. Just to add a little more complexity to this already complex set of rules, Microsoft is in the midst of replacing its Office 365 Small Business, Small Business Premium and Midsize Busines plans with three new ones. Automatic updates to Office 2016 for those on these three plans won't begin until the fourth quarter of 2016. The same is true of those on the existing Office 365 Small Business Premium, Business and/or Business Premium - but only for those who are buying new subscriptions, according to the chart from a Microsoft community answers post, embedded above. It turns out anyone in the Office 365 First Release program was able to get the latest Office 2016 apps for Windows as of this week. But thanks to a find from the SuperSite for Windows folks - plus a few other Microsoft pages and KB articles - we now know more. While Microsoft officials did say a week ago that the company would be moving to a servicing/branch model with Office 2016 similar to the one the Windows 10 team is using, details on exactly how that would play out for Office users were scarce. Instead, as many have discovered, the Office 2016 rollout is a staggered one, and one which has resulted in some OneDrive, Skype for Business and other app and service installation and compatibility issues.

It turns out that not everyone has been able to upgrade to the latest release this week, in spite of Microsoft declaring the suite generally available.

Since then, I've been getting a lot of questions around timing and installation techniques from those attempting to move to the latest version of Microsoft's Office suite. Microsoft began rolling out Office 2016 for Windows on September 22.
