I've run in to a couple of applications built with Access/VBA that will
not run on the 64 bit flavor.

I had to visit that decision a while ago and aside from the plugin
compatibility issues you say are handled a marginally bigger list of
pros/cons is:

sion-of-Office-2016-2dee7807-8f95-4d0c-b5fe-6c6f49b8d261

 

That being said, we have used x64 since Office 2013 came out without
issue.

Subject: [NTSysADM] Office 64bit improvements other than Excel

 

Hello everyone,

Is Outlook 64-bit better with large PSTs, in any way?

 

We will be embarking on a company-wide upgrade to Office 2016, and I
have to decide if it will be 64-bit by default, or stay 32-bit.

 

Ignoring plugin compatibility (just trust me we have that part handled),
are there any benefits to using Office 2016 64-bit outside of large
Excel files?

 

I'm looking for a technical citation, thus far I haven't found anything
beyond 64bit being immune to certain security issues.

 

Regards,

Daniel Wolf
