Microsoft

Microsoft is a global technology company founded in 1975 and headquartered at One Microsoft Way in Redmond, Washington. The company develops and operates software, cloud infrastructure, AI services, productivity tools, business applications, developer platforms, security products, gaming services and devices.

Microsoft's portfolio includes major families such as Microsoft 365, Azure, Windows, Dynamics 365, Power Platform, Surface, Xbox, GitHub and other enterprise and consumer products. This company page is intentionally kept at the corporate level. Product-family architecture, individual product capabilities, current plan pricing and feature comparisons belong on the relevant BrandLigo brand and product pages rather than being repeated here.

Microsoft's current strategy spans cloud computing, AI, productivity, security, developer tooling, business applications and gaming. For buyers evaluating Microsoft as a vendor, the main consideration is often the breadth of the ecosystem: identity, productivity, cloud infrastructure, data, security and business applications can be purchased from one supplier, but licensing and product overlap can become complex as organizations adopt more of the portfolio.

Microsoft's official company facts page lists its corporate address in Redmond, Washington, and records 1975 as the year Microsoft was founded. BrandLigo keeps this profile focused on Microsoft as the corporate entity so that individual families such as Microsoft 365 can target their own distinct search intent without duplicating the company description.
