Business Processes and Intelligent Cloud revenue were up 37 percent year on year. The Microsoft Office team has added more than 200,000 new employees and now has more than 1 million new customers, driven in part by a 25 percent increase in revenue on the Office 365 platform.

Microsoft has also added a suite of new Office 365 initiatives to its existing Office 365 customers, including the Office 365 Pro subscription offering, a new Office 365 subscription service, and a new enterprise-class Outlook.com email service. The company also announced that it is offering an additional subscription service for its new Office 365 customers, the Office 365 SharePoint subscription that supports up to 30 Office 365 users with their Outlook.com subscription.

Other Office 365 offerings include Office 365 Office 365 Enterprise, Office 365 SharePoint Enterprise, and Office 365 Pro.

With its Office 365 subscription suite, Microsoft is now giving customers the option to subscribe to Office 365 subscriptions. The new Office 365 subscription service will expire in 2018 and will be available in more than 30 markets around the world. Office 365 Pro subscribers can purchase Office 365 subscriptions for $20 off with a $10 credit or $25 off with a $75 credit. On top of the subscription pricing, customers can also use Office 365 Express for $6 off with a $50 credit or $75 credit. A free Office 365 subscription to Office 365 Enterprise and Office 365 SharePoint Enterprise is also available for $6 off with a $75 credit or $100 credit and on-premises or a $125 credit or $200 credit for users who do not own a subscription to Office 365.

Microsoft announced that it will be offering the Office 365 Pro subscription service for $6 off with a $50 credit or $75 credit. Users can also use Office 365 Express for $5 off by signing up with Office 365 Pro for $60 in the Office 365 Exchange app.

Also as reported by The Wall Street Journal, Microsoft plans to offer the subscription service to its customers for $20 off in the Office 365 Office 365 subscription. This will be the first time the service will be offered on a subscription basis to any customer.

Microsoft also announced today that it has added an Office 365 Premium subscription. The first premium subscription for Microsoft Office 365 members is available for $25 for a total of $85. A $25 premium is a premium subscription that the company has already added to its existing Office 365 customers. The subscription includes a $35 upgrade to Office 365 Pro software and a $25 subscription to Microsoft Office 365 Pro.
