Hi guys,
I have a server where around 20 users connect and use Office 365 apps such as Outlook and Excel to work over RDP. Sometimes during the session, Excel freezes when switch from one cell to another one as well as Outlook. They stop responding for a bit and then it resumes.
Checking the CPU and memory on the server there are no hardware limitations nor get saturated at any point but the problem persists for some users.
How can I improve the office installation on the server to make sure the users don't have issues with these types of freezing situations that interrupt their work.
They also complain when they type sometimes it takes a bit for the text to appear in Word for example.
Thanks much in advance,
Teo

Hello @Citation79
Where is this server hosted? Could it be a bandwidth issue?
Please open the task manager > Performance > Ethernet > checked the usage.
I had this issue before and migrating the server to Azure sorted the problem for me. On-Prem internet was just not good enough to cope with the amount of users requiring access.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Try disabling hardware graphics acceleration for the applications. See screenshot attached.,
