In the last hours we have known Microsoft's economic report, a report that refers to the last quarter. In this report we have not only known the company's income but Microsoft's own CEO, Satya Nadella has recognized things that we already knew such as the fall of Windows Phone.
Microsoft acknowledges that your mobile division is not as expected And he even believes that he is currently in free fall, something that we all knew already, but for the first time it is recognized by the company.
However, not everything is bad in this report, on the contrary for many. Cloud services have grown lately and at Microsoft even more, which has made its profits in the sector grow even more. Thus, during this quarter, the company had a profit of 7 billion dollars of which 19% belonged to the cloud products area.
Microsoft's cloud services have grown not only in revenue but also in users
Also Satya Nadella has emphasized users who use cloud services, growing exponentially. Currently, the number of Office 365 users exceeds 23 million, a figure that few of us thought it would have, taking into account that there are services like Google Docs or Dropbox Paper. Microsoft's hardware has also played and plays a great role within the company, having increased its sales by 9%.
Considering this and the free fall of the mobile division, Microsoft may not only focus on Surface Phone but advance its launch, in order to obtain great sales or rather, great numbers at the end of the year. Something difficult to happen in Microsoft's mobile division, but it seems that in cloud services, such a thing will take place unless something shocking happens.
