Notable highlights include:

• Enhancements to Excel
• Delve is now integrate, that should be a nice touch.
• New CRM app for Outlook, this was long overdue
• Documents across platforms
• Mobility and Cortana enhancements
• Cleaned-up UI
• Enhancements to Parature integration, looking forward to the new features
• FieldOne integration, probably at the same level with Parature when it was originally “integrated”, so we’ll just wait and see.

The following video highlights some of these features:
