What is Shared Computer Activation (SCA) for Office 365 ProPlus?

- Customer dedicated self-hosted (on-premise).
- Dedicated third-party hosted
- Windows Azure environment
What Office versions support Shared Computer Activation?
Shared Computer Activation mode works with enterprise versions of Office 365 (ProPlus and E3).
