About Microsoft Office 2021 :

Office LTSC 2021, also known as Microsoft Office Long Term Servicing Channel 2021, is a version of Microsoft Office that is designed for specific commercial and government scenarios. Here’s a detailed description of its key aspects:

1. Purpose and Audience: Office LTSC 2021 is targeted primarily at businesses and organizations that need a stable, static version of Office due to regulatory requirements, or because they have specific processes that require long-term consistency and do not allow for frequent updates.
2. Software Included: This suite typically includes core applications like Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. Depending on the licensing agreement, it might also include other programs like Access and Publisher.
3. Update Policy: Unlike the more commonly used Office 365 (now renamed Microsoft 365), which operates on a subscription model that includes regular feature updates, Office LTSC provides only security updates and bug fixes during its lifecycle. There are no feature updates or enhancements provided once the version is released.
4. Support Lifecycle: Office LTSC 2021 has a fixed lifecycle, typically offering five years of mainstream support from Microsoft. This support includes security updates but, as noted, excludes feature updates.
5. Licensing and Installation: It is sold as a one-time purchase per device, which means there’s no subscription fee. The installation is typically done through traditional methods like downloading an installer or using physical media, and the software is licensed per device.
6. Use Cases: It’s particularly suitable for systems that are not connected to the internet, where stability and security are more crucial than having the latest features, such as in manufacturing plants or secured government offices where machines are kept on isolated networks.
7. Comparison with Microsoft 365: Unlike Microsoft 365, Office LTSC does not offer cloud-based services like Teams, OneDrive, or SharePoint Online. It also lacks some of the cloud-powered artificial intelligence features of Microsoft 365.

Office LTSC 2021 is ideal for users who need a reliable and secure office suite but do not require the cutting-edge features and integration offered by Microsoft’s cloud-based products.
