It should work if you have a macOS specific version of the Microsoft Office for Small Business installer. Windows installers will not work.


The Mac mini will run any normal Mac applications. Including Office 365.


Do note, current versions of Office do not list "Small Business" version.


It offers several versions of Office for monthly or annual subscriptions.

And only the Home and Business version for Mac as a one time purchase:

If its an older Office version, it may or may not work depending on what exactly it is.

Perhaps if you clarify what Office version you have specifically we can determine whether it will work or not.
