Microsoft Releases Sway to Office 365 and Windows 10 Users

Sway lets you compose text and graphics on the fly that can be used free if you have a Microsoft account. This product is viewed  as a presentation tool to be used primarily by businesses and education users. Subscribers to Microsoft's Office 365 plans that that include "Office Online, Office 365 Business or Office 365 ProPlus" have access to this new Sway commercial release.

Sway users create presentations, called "Sways," from various text and graphics sources. The Sway application sets up the layout based on integrated design principles. Typically, a viewer would scroll vertically or horizontally through a Sway presentation, but a new added feature with this release is the ability to show Sways in an individual slide-by-slide manner.

Also with this release, Microsoft now permits a single device to handle multiple Sway accounts for home and work purposes. Microsoft has also enhanced the Share button in Sway so that presentations can be shared via Docs.com, which is a free Office documents sharing portal.

I would love to hear from anyone that is actually using this product and how you are using it.
