Similarly, the commands from the View tab are split between the View and Window menus. The Protect Document command is on both the Tools menu and the Review tab – but the Restrict Permission tool from the Review tab is on the File menu instead. You get both a Table menu and a set of Table commands on the Insert tab of the ribbon in Word 2016, and the Tools menu and Review tab have almost the same set of commands – but not quite. That’s not just the file management tools on the File menu where you’d expect them (there’s a File menu in Office 2013 too, which has the options for each program, whereas Office 2016 keeps Preferences on the Apple menu where Mac users will look for them). If anything, Office 2016 is almost too much of a Mac application, because instead of putting everything on the ribbon the way Office does on Windows, it both splits and duplicates features between the ribbon and the menus.

The ribbons often have the same tabs as the Windows versions of the same apps – but not always the full set of features.
#UPDATE OFFICE FOR MAC 2016 UPDATE#
You get the ribbons and task panes of the Windows Office applications – and a recent update adds the ability to customise the ribbons again, and you can even pick which icons you want on the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left corner. This a real version of Office, with features and tools that will be familiar to Windows users, but in the form of real Mac applications as well. Office 2016 for Mac replaced the 2011 version that had grown so long in the tooth, and it was well worth waiting for. Office on the Mac went for almost five years without a significant update, making it hard to remember that Word and Excel actually started out on Apple’s computers.
