How to Plan for the End of Support for Office 2016 & 2019

Time is running out for Office 2016 and 2019. After October 14, 2025, these versions will no longer receive updates, security patches, or compatibility fixes, leaving your business exposed to cyber threats and operational issues.

These versions are traditional desktop apps that require manual updates. Once support ends, they won’t just be outdated; they’ll be vulnerable. If you’re still using them, now is the time to plan your next step.

Our Recommendation: Plan to Upgrade to Office 2024

As Office 2016 and 2019 approach their end of support on October 14, 2025, our recommendation is to start planning your upgrade to Office 2024 now. Upgrading ahead of time helps prevent disruptions and keeps your business protected.

Why Upgrade to Office 2024?

Office 2024 delivers an up-to-date experience designed to keep your systems secure and efficient:

  • Security updates: Ongoing patches help protect your data.
  • Improved compatibility: Built to work with modern platforms and tools.
  • New features: Designed to support productivity and collaboration.
