Activation remains the same by using Key Management Service (KMS) or Multi Activation Key (MAK).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Office LTSC 2021 is separate from the Office that&#8217;s available through Microsoft 365 or Office 365 plans. If you have deployed Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise (previously named Office 365 ProPlus), you don&#8217;t need Office LTSC 2021. You already have all the features that are included in Office LTSC 2021, along with many more features that aren&#8217;t available in Office LTSC 2021.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Office LTSC 2021 won\u2019t receive any new features after its release. If you want to get new Office features on an on-going basis, you should consider moving to a Microsoft 365 (or Office 365) plan that includes Microsoft 365 apps for enterprise, i.e. Microsoft 365 E3 or E5.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For the announcement, please visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/2021\/09\/16\/office-ltsc-is-now-generally-available\/\">https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/2021\/09\/16\/office-ltsc-is-now-generally-available\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For useful deployment information, please visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/deployoffice\/ltsc2021\/overview\">https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/deployoffice\/ltsc2021\/overview<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Did you find this information useful?
