So the only way to save majority of my stuff to the clouds, i need outlook or the mac equivalent?

iCloud has nothing to do with Outlook. Your question is quite vague and confusing; perhaps you should clarify.

Actually iCloud does work with Outlook

It can sync calendars, mail, contacts and tasks with Outlook
Bookmarks sync with IE
Photostream photos get saved to a directory
