Suppose you bring your laptop to the office, where you save all work to your company's online account. Now, when returning home, there is no way to use MS Office on the same device to work with personal files. You cannot personalize settings for Word or Excel.

Now, in the latest version of Microsoft Office 2013, we can create and maintain multiple accounts with different settings. When Office 2013 integrates SkyDrive with other video-sharing services, this feature is more necessary than ever.
