Microsoft Office 2024 Professional Plus LTSC

Microsoft Office 2024 Professional Plus LTSC

Office LTSC Professional Plus 2024 is Microsoft’s long-term servicing edition of Office for Windows. It delivers a fixed feature set with five years of security and quality updates, making it ideal for regulated, locked-down, or disconnected environments where change control is strict and devices cannot accept frequent feature changes.

What’s included

• Word 2024
• Excel 2024
• PowerPoint 2024
• Outlook 2024
• Access 2024 (Windows only)
• OneNote (desktop)
• Optional during setup: Skype for Business

Not included or changed in this release:

• Publisher is not included.
• Microsoft Teams is not bundled (download and deploy separately if required).

Who is it for?

Best suited to organisations that need stability over new features, including: financial services, healthcare, government, industrial/OT, labs, shop floors, kiosks, VDI/RDS, and air-gapped or highly restricted networks. If your organisation wants the latest cloud and AI features with ongoing feature updates, Microsoft 365 Apps is a better fit.

Key advantages of LTSC

• Fixed features: no feature changes after release; only security and quality updates.
• Predictable lifecycle: five years of Mainstream Support under Microsoft’s Fixed Lifecycle Policy.
• Enterprise-ready deployment: Click-to-Run with the Office Deployment Tool (ODT) and management via Configuration Manager or Intune.
• Compatibility continuity: same major version (16.0) as Office 2016/2019/LTSC 2021 to help with policy, add-ins, and macro stability.

Notable capabilities and updates

• OpenDocument Format (ODF) 1.4 support in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint; saves to ODF 1.4 by default.
