Microsoft released Office 2016 to the general public back in September, and
it’s a good update overall. But if you’d like to help improve future releases of Office, you’ll want to check out the new
Office Insider program.
Office Insider clearly draws inspiration from Microsoft’s Windows Insider user-testing program, as
Neowin points out. And just like how Windows Insider lets you see what’s to come for Windows, the Office Insider program will let you test out and provide feedback for upcoming releases of Office 2016.
For now, the program encompasses the Windows and Android versions of Office, and is open to Office 365 Home, Business, and University users: All you need to do to join Office Insider is to download and install the Office Insider build of the productivity suite. Mac users will have to wait a bit:
Microsoft says that it will provide Office Insider builds for OS X “in the coming months.”
