August 17th became the official last day of Internet Explorer support in 365.
Microsoft announced the roadmap back in 2020, stating IE 11 will no longer be supported in the Microsoft 365 applications. While it’s still possible to utilize them in the browser, the quality of experience will dwindle.
Many users are thankful for this transition. Internet Explorer’s user interface has been outdated and messy since it’s release back in 1995. The software corporation encourages its users to try out the Edge browser for the best experience.
Customers have been using IE 11 since 2013 when the online environment was much less sophisticated than the landscape today. Since then, open web standards and newer browsers—like the new Microsoft Edge—have enabled better, more innovative online experiences. We believe that Microsoft 365 subscribers, in both consumer and commercial contexts, will be well served with this change through faster and more responsive web access to greater sets of features in everyday toolsets like Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, and more.
