If I had to make software that integrated with different versions of Word, I'd test them on all supported versions, even if a Microsoft person told me they are identical now and still will be identical in 2020.
Do I understand correctly your company sells untested software?

Hi folks, new here and had a question regarding these two suites. I'm not looking for package or pricing details and differences. What applications come with each and their accessibility are immaterial to what I am seeking. .
What I do want to know is - what are the technical differences between them? For example, we know that Word 2007 is entirely different software than Word 2010. Similarly, is Word 2013 the same software as Word in Office 365?
Is there an actual install version of 365, is it only web-based or is it nothing more than Office 2013 software with a different branding?
The reasoning behind my questions: We support a multitude of clients which use my company's software which is integrated with MS Office. Each client has their own environment. Some use Office 2010 and some use Office 2013. Some clients have said they are moving to Office 365. We want to be able to test our software on a virtual machine running the same software that the client is using to understand where any challenges may arise.
In speaking with our VM team, they've stated that, aside from licensing and available software, there is no difference between Office 2013 Pro and Office 365 Enterprise applications. They've communicated that the office applications are the same for both suites - basically telling me that Word 2013 is the same software as Word in Office 365. Is this an accurate statement?
I've frustrated myself to no end trying to search for these answers. Everywhere I have looked only speaks to the packaging and costs associated with the two.
Any insight/information anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
