But Microsoft still have the vast majority of that market (Linux etc for the desktop hardly shows up in the figures). Microsoft officially released Windows 11 for the general public on October 5, and even before we jump to November, Microsoft’s latest desktop OS has gained a sizeable market share, according to a survey by AdDuplex. Apple has certainly grown Mac sales, yes, as a portion of that market. AdDuplex: Windows 11 off to a good start. Of what we might consider the "classic" computing market Microsoft's performance hasn't been anywhere near as bad as this. Worldwide OS market share for April 2013 showed that Windows 8 gained 0.53 from 3.31 to 3.84, whereas Windows 7 dropped 0.01 from 44.73 to 44.72. Microsoft has 20 percent of the consumer compute market.
These days, the Goldman Sachs report says, the consumer compute market is led by Android at 42 percent share and Apple at 24 percent share.
Our old numbers didn't include phones, our new ones do: that's not going to be flattering to Microsoft. And near none of them were running anything produced by Microsoft back then.
With the reach of 20 market share, Windows 10 20H2 slowly approaches Windows 10 1909, currently holding second place. You could certainly send an SMS on one for example. Microsoft now forces updates for the users of these releases, hence the rise of Windows 10 2004. Sure, cell or miobile phones weren't really all that sexy a device back in 2000 but they did indeed contain computer chips and so could be considered a computing device. This is a very slight shift from the market shares in January, with figures of.
And there's another little switch going on in there. The data from February 2020 shows that Windows 10 has 57.39 of the desktop OS market share and Windows 7 has 25.20. And appears to entirely leave out all of the mainframes (which admittedly would be very small in number), Sparcstations and all the rest. The desktop OS had a 50.2 market share in June, leading the nearly 11-year old Windows XP OS, which controlled 29.9 of the market. The 3% less feels like less than Apple alone's market share with Macs etc. The analysis, first reported by tech news site Geekwire, found that despite losing second place, MacOSs market share grew from 6.7 to 7.5 in 2020, at the expense of Microsoft Windows. Windows 7 for the first time ever has captured more than half of the global operating system market, according to data compiled by Web analytics firm StatCounter. AdDuplex does not offer any explanation for the Studio 2’s poor performance so far, although it is possible that its relatively novel status, high price and comparatively niche use-cases are relevant factors.I wouldn't be entirely sure about that 2000 number for example. Data from a variety of analytics companies shows that Windows 7 is still a popular OS a year after support ended. The global usage share of for Apple’s Macintosh operating system is 1.43 percent and is the second most popular operating system in the world. Microsoft’s Windows still dominates the global operating system market.
The Surface Pro 2017 has risen to 2 nd place in this list, with approximately 17%, whereas the Surface Pro 3 retains the third spot with just under 15%. Microsoft’s Windows 7 operating system is still running on at least 100 million PCs. , today reported that Microsoft’s Windows operating system has a global usage share of 97.46 percent. According to this graph, the Pro 4 still has the most market share (approximately 21%) whereas the Studio 2 has the least (nearly 0%).
The group also displayed an analysis of its data on Surface PC market share in its new report. On the other hand, AdDuplex notes that its data is only recorded from Augin other words, it only really covers the releases from 1511 (also known as Threshold 2) onwards. However, an unusually high frequency of bugs and issues may have stunted 1809’s growth in this manner considerably. The remaining 9.8% is made up of legacy versions, including versions 1709, 1703, 16.ĪdDuplex found these results particularly striking, as the average version of Windows 10 was seen to jump up to nearly 100% of coverage across PCs shortly after its release. Version 1803 is the one that retains the Windows market-share crown in 2018, as it is associated with 83.6% of all Windows PCs. If you were to include Apple computers Microsoft’s share would still be in the high 80.
It has apparently secured installs on only 6.6% of all PCs that run Microsoft’s flagship software suite. Of all operating system, including those of Apply computers For 10 years in a row Microsoft’s market share of Intel-compatible PC operating system was above 90 and for the last couple of years it was at least 95. An end-of-year report by the market analysis firm AdDuplex indicates that Windis failing to build uptake at the rate normally linked to a new release of the OS.
