Deploying Microsoft 365 office apps to Windows devices
This article explains how you can deploy Microsoft 365 applications to your Windows 10 and 11 devices using GoTo Resolve MDM and Microsoft's Office Deployment Tool (ODT).
What is the Microsoft Office Deployment Tool?
The Office Deployment Tool is a utility that can be used to download, configure and install Microsoft 365 office applications on Windows computers. With the ODT, you can define which products and language versions are installed, and how those products should be updated.
Deployment steps
- Administrator or Editor level user access on your GoTo Resolve MDM site.
- Make sure your users have Office 365 (or Microsoft 365) accounts and licenses to use Microsoft 365 Apps.
- Check the installed operating system versions and architectures (32-bit or 64-bit) of your Windows devices.
- Check the required language versions for your users.
- Make sure that your Windows devices meet the system requirements for installing Microsoft 365 apps (Windows 10 or 11, 4GB of disk space)
