Microsoft Office is an office suite of applications, servers, and services developed by Microsoft. It was first announced by Bill Gates on 1 August 1988 at COMDEX in Las Vegas. The first version of Office, released on 19 November 1990, contained Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint. Over the years, more applications have been added to the suite and the applications have been more unified.
The current version of Office is Microsoft Office 2016, which was released on 22 September 2015. Microsoft Office 2019 is expected to be released 1 October 2018, however.
