Differences between Outlook on the web and the Outlook mail application
The primary difference between the two is that the Outlook mail application is more fully featured but must be installed on each device you want to use to access your email. Outlook on the web has fewer features but requires no application to be installed and can be accessed from any device through a web browser.

Outlook on the web may be suitable if you...
- Manage your own mail and calendar
