Support for the Office 2013 version of Office 365 ProPlus ends in Feb. 2017, as does support for the Feb. 2016 version of Office 365 ProPlus. The accompanying timeline shows selected versions of Office Professional Plus and Office 365 ProPlus and how long Microsoft will support them with Office 365 hosted services.

Office Professional Plus (top of the timeline) is licensed Per Device and is the most common Office suite purchased in Enterprise Agreements. Customers running it continue to have Mainstream and Extended support periods that were offered with earlier versions of Office, and organizations can defer feature updates for the supported life cycle of a version. However, the right to obtain product support does not imply that other necessary applications will continue to work with a particular version: Microsoft will not support Office Professional Plus versions in Extended support with related Office 365—hosted services such as Exchange Online. That means it will not support Office Professional Plus 2013 with Office 365 hosted services after Apr. 10, 2018.
