Office 365 E1 and E3 LIcenses: do they cover Office Online Server Editing & Viewing Documents
- AnonymousFeb 14, 2018
E3 definitely allows you to edit Office Apps Online.
As per MS article, even E1 allows you to edit the files online.

Thanks, I wanted to check the response I got from our supplier. For Office Online Server we need a minimum of an Office 365 E1 license to allow users to edit or view Office documents rendered by OOS.
I have learned to be a bit paranoid as to what is covered and what is not.

I think there's a little confusion here between Office Online (cloud based) and Office Online Server (which is on-premises server). Deleted's link refers to cloud based Office Online, but if I understood correctly, the question is about Office Online Server

I am guessing that Daniel means "Office Online" because he is talking about E1 licences etc. You are correct - "Office Online Server" is the on-premises version of what we used to call Office Web Apps (or WAC, etc.).
- Feb 14, 2018Agree, if he is talking about Office 365 licenses, then he is referring simply to Office Online
