Why each option

Deploying Microsoft 365 Apps requires specific tools designed for configuration and installation management. The Office Customization Tool and Office Deployment Tool are the two primary methods for deploying Microsoft 365 Apps.

AMicrosoft Support and Recovery Assistant

Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant (SaRA) is a diagnostic and troubleshooting tool used to fix issues with existing Microsoft 365 installations, not a deployment tool for initial rollout.

BOffice Customization ToolCorrect

The Office Customization Tool (OCT) is a web-based interface used to create configuration XML files that define deployment settings for Microsoft 365 Apps, such as which apps to install, update channels, and language preferences, making it a direct deployment configuration method.

COffice Deployment ToolCorrect

The Office Deployment Tool (ODT) is a command-line tool from Microsoft specifically designed to download and deploy Microsoft 365 Apps to client computers, using configuration XML files (often created with the OCT) to control the installation process.

DMicrosoft Deployment Toolkit

Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) is a free tool used for automating Windows OS and legacy application deployments, but it is not a supported or recommended tool for deploying Microsoft 365 Apps specifically.
