How does this differ from EagleConnect’s OneDrive Office Web Apps that are already available?

The OneDrive Office Web Apps are great solution for managing your MS Office documents on the go, since they may be accessed and modified anywhere you have Internet access and a web browser.  The applications included with Microsoft Office 365 are the full, separate applications and can be used “offline,” such as when using the software on a desktop or laptop.  

Install the suite, sign in with your EagleConnect account. That's it, you are ready to go!
