Hello,

I plan to procure 60 new PCs for my office. I need to also buy MS Office licenses. Currently, we have 25 Office 2013 Std.(perpetual) licenses. We will mostly use Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. We do not want to use cloud storage.

In my scenario, I will buy 12 Office 365 licenses and use/install on all new 60 PCs(5 PCs per username). This is legal ? 

To avoid cloud storage, I have disabled/unchecked "Office Online" and "OneDrive for Business" in "Assign License" window. Is this correct? 

Am I understanding this Office 365 license model correctly? Please help/suggest.

Many thanks for help.

Can anyone help me please

Hi,

You may have heard that Office 365 allows a user "get the full, installed Office experience on 5 PCs or Macs, 5 tablets (including iPad and Android tablet) and 5 phones", but we don't suggest our users to share a licence with 4 other users. To get the best user experience, purchase one licence for each user.

As this question is actually about licensing, the best approach is the local customer service, contact them to ask for the best plan for you. We mainly discuss questions and feedbacks about the Office client in the current forum.

You can find your local customer service number in this link below:
