Microsoft Office 2016 Pro Plus – Product key (telephone activation)

Microsoft Office 2016 Pro Plus with telephone activation is the same complete office suite, but with a key that is validated via Microsoft's voice activation service rather than online. This variant suits workstations where Internet activation fails, machines reinstalled several times and environments where the web activation service is filtered. The procedure is guided and is done entirely from the Office wizard.

Software included

• Word 2016 — long documents, templates, mail merge.
• Excel 2016 — calculations, pivot tables, charts.
• PowerPoint 2016 — animated presentations and Presenter mode.
• Outlook 2016 — email, shared calendar, task management.
• Access 2016 — local databases and data-entry forms.
• Publisher 2016 — flyers, brochures and business cards.
• OneNote 2016 — digital notebook.

Activation

The activation key is sent to you by email within 24 hours maximum. Install Office 2016, launch the activation wizard and choose “Activate by phone”. The wizard displays an installation ID; the Microsoft voice server dictates back a confirmation ID for you to copy in. The operation takes about five minutes and requires no Internet connection.

System requirements

Windows 11, 10, 8.1 or 7 SP1, 1 GHz SSE2 processor, 2 GB of RAM, 3 GB of disk space, 1280 x 800 display. A telephone line is needed at the time of activation. Note that Office 2016 is no longer covered by Microsoft security updates.
