Deploy Office 2019 with ODT

I have a DC with about 100 client, I want to install Office 2019 automatically but I found that with Office 2019 you can't do that with GPO you need to use Office Deployment Tool so I have these 2 issue:

  1. How can I use ODT to do that with the 100 clients?

  2. Can I activate Office for the 100 clients using ODT and what kind of license support that?

Hi @NourAldeenAljawhari-8186,
For Question 1:
You can refer to this support article about Deploy Office 2019 (for IT Pros):
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/office2019/deploy

For Question 2:
You need to buy volume licensed versions of Office 2019 to activate, there are 3 different methods of activating volume licensed versions of Office please refer to this support article:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/vlactivation/plan-volume-activation-of-office?toc=/deployoffice/office2019/toc.json

Please note, licenses purchased via the Microsoft Product Services Agreement (MPSA) are managed in a separate site - the Microsoft Business Center.

Hope the information is helpful.

Thanks for the reply, the article describing installing Office using ODT is not discussing the way to deploy it automatically on multiple PCs.
Can I do it with ODT or should I use Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager.
Note that the PCs may not have internet access.

Hi,
There are 3 ways you can choose to deploy Office to client PCs, as you said your PCs cannot connect to Internet, I suggest you deploy from local source:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/deploy-microsoft-365-apps-local-source

About deploying with Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager please refer to this support article:
