Company Microsoft's dominance is at risk, and that the company has one of the most relevant applications, "MS Office" to other platforms Android and iOS specifically that are more common with most portable devices nowadays.
It was called "Project: Miramar." Initially, Microsoft had second thoughts about releasing it for business reasons that might harm the market of their native operating system. However, they had a change of heart and decided that they will actually release it but partially limiting it for iOS and Android a bit.
"As we step back and say, these core applications, these core brands that are so important to enterprise customers and consumers, how do we make sure that we're thoughtful about what we're doing on the Windows platform, as well as cognizant of the fact that there's other devices in their lives," Microsoft's Chief of Marketing, Tami Reller mentioned at a Goldman-Sachs-sponsored conference.
Though limited, Miramar is confirmed to be released and will likely hit the market earlier than Gemini, Microsoft's Metro-Style version of all the apps under Office Suite. According to ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley, the release date would be within the first half of 2014 as Microsoft's ex-CEO, Steve Balmer agreed with the Office team to bring it once it is done and ready.
MS Office for iPad/Android will be a bit more different (and better presumably) with their earlier port, Office Mobile. Another difference is it will come in separate apps, unlike the former's all-in-one app form. The only thing that might be carried over is the requirement of Office 365 subscription as it has been like this with the previous releases Office Mobile.
Microsoft will indeed claim its rightful place in everybody's devices including portable ones. "Office" has been a long-time household name when it comes to business application suite. iWorks and Google Docs (now called Google Drive) just followed their footsteps
