Our corporation is in the midst of a large Office upgrade program where we are moving everyone from Office 2007 to either Office 2013 (on premise desktops) or Office 365 (w/ 2016 code base) for laptops, Surface Pro etc.
One of our departments is currently running MS CRM 2011 (Rollup 18) and the users are a mix of on premise desktops and mobile devices (Surface Pro)
There is some confusion on exactly what versions of Office 2016 will work with it. To be clear - the only version of Office 2016 that will be deployed will be Office 365 (with the 2016 code base).
There will be no "standard" Office 2016 desktop versions (like one would install from DVD/ISO/MSI installer) deployed.
With this scenario in mind - is CRM 2011 (with Rollup 18):
1. Fully supported for use with Office 365 (2016 code base)?
2. Known to work with (but maybe not fully supported) with Office 365 (2016 code base)?
3. Pointless to install against Office 365 (2016 code base) because it will instantly error out?
Appreciate any concrete info that can be shared.
Cheers!
