I have always wanted to list all the Microsoft products and services (just like I did Google’s). But Microsoft’s products are really diverse in nature and a good percentage of them are actually targeting companies and business users. Therefore I found it difficult to list all the products in an organized way.
Microsoft’s products were mostly desktop applications until a few years ago. Now things have changed substantially and Microsoft has been launching a lot of standalone web and mobile apps for individual consumers. This is why I (finally) decided to list all the Microsoft products and services.

Over 400 million Windows 10 devices. Over 1.2 billion Microsoft Office users. Over 400 million Outlook.com users. Over 3 billion Skype minutes a day. Over 669,000 Windows Store apps. That’s the stats of Microsoft.

Closing Thoughts
As you probably know, the word “Microsoft” is a portmanteau of “microcomputer” and “software”. And that means Microsoft is NOT just a software company but also a hardware company.
I haven’t listed the entire range of Microsoft products, services and devices as they have a ton of server products and enterprise business solutions and games and whatnot. This would have been a never ending list had I included all of them.
I have listed only the ones that are targeting individual consumers, rather than companies or corporations. And I’ve also included few business products and services that I knew existed (as a consumer).
Additionally, you can check out the Wikipedia list of:
Microsoft Software and Microsoft Servers and Microsoft Mobile Services and Microsoft Operating Systems and Microsoft Office and Microsoft Services and Microsoft Hardware and Microsoft Studios to explore more Microsoft products, services, tools, apps, and games.
Have I missed your favorite Microsoft product or service or even an app? If so, do let me know as a comment below and I will add it to the list.
So, how many Microsoft products and services are you using? :)
