If your company is still using Office 2013, now is the time to upgrade to the latest version. In 2017, Microsoft ceased Mainstream Support of Office 2013, switching the software to Extended Support. This month, Microsoft announced that after five years of Extended Support, they will be terminating all support for Office 2013 on April 11, 2023.
Using an outdated version of Microsoft office puts your organization at risk. Per Microsoft’s Fixed Lifecycle Policy, there will be no more security updates for Office 2013.
