Microsoft Expected to Announce Next Version Office Monday

Juan Carlos Perez thinks Microsoft Office Must Evolve to Remain Successful:

To beat back competitors like Google Apps, Office must evolve into an easier to use, tablet- and smartphone-friendly product, and one that doesn't penalize customers who access it via the cloud with big feature gaps and complicated setups.

Specifically, Microsoft must overcome its reticence to make an Office version for iPads and Android tablets. And it must beef up Office 365, its year-old cloud suite that includes online versions of Office, Lync, SharePoint, and Exchange.
