This document discusses typical deployment scenarios for Office 2013/2016. It compares Windows Installer-based and Click-to-Run installations of Office, covering licensing, activation, installation process, customization, and Group Policy support. Various deployment methods are also covered, including small/medium businesses using local or network installations, larger companies using networks and Group Policy, and virtualization technologies. A new option discussed is deploying Office via Azure Remote (Office on Demand).
