Office 2013 in an APP VOL ?

Yep.. i know probably not the best. Sounds like the consensus is to put it on the GI ?

Purely from a license standpoint.. we don't want to buy anymore Office licenses.. as we are trying to move users to Google Drive.

What about creating different APP VOL's for lets say :

Office 2013 solo

Office 2013 plus Access

Office 2013 plus Access and Project.

i Know its not the Best / most efficient - however just curious if anyone has created it that way ?

We are using EUM / Writables / APP VOL's.

thanks !

I do believe people did it that way. Just make sure not to add more than 1 appstack with Office products in it. So You would need to create multiple appstacks indeed and only assign one. It should technically work.

Make sure your on 2.14 or higher if you want the search indexing service, its broken in 2.11 to 2.13 I beleive. I did what you want up till we upgraded last to 2.13, and since search indexing is a priority for us, I moved office to the GI.
