Is there some simple thing I can look for on a system to decide if they are using Office 2019 or Office365?

@dlondon You'd need to check the Office license version installed on a machine, and this EA from @pbowden will do that for you: https://github.com/pbowden-msft/ExtensionAttributes/blob/master/Office_License.sh

@tcandelaThe difference between Office 2019 and Office 265 is the features activated by the license being used. That's why you have to check the license version installed rather than the version of the application binaries.
