Office 365 No. 1 app Down Under

Microsoft’s cloud-born Office 365 has become the most popular application – or in its case more properly a suite of apps – used by businesses across Australia, according to identity management company Okta.Office 365 is the No 1 product on Okta’s latest

 listing of the 10 most popular apps for business use in Australia.

Others, in order, are: online file sharing app Box; Amazon Web Services;

G-Suite; Salesforce; Atlassian’s Confluence and Jira; messaging app Slack;

accounting program Xero; and Dropbox – a rival for Box.

The five fastest growing apps in Australia over a six-month period last year

were said to be MailChimp, Slack, Jira Xero and Amazon Web Services.

Okta has also named what it claims are the five most popular personal apps:

LinkedIn; Facebook; Twitter; Windows Live; and eBay.
