Hello. To be honest, I don't know where to ask this question, but I hope you can help me.

I'm doing a research paper for university on "Microsoft's Monopoly Activities." There are many articles that describe Microsoft as a monopoly, but some also refute this claim.

I have an important question: Is Microsoft considered a monopoly? I'm interested in your opinion, as it will be useful for my research paper. Thank you.

( Sorry for any errors in the text, as I used a translator )

Is Microsoft a monopoly?

Hi,

Monopoly means that a company is solely active on a market. Considering the definition of a monopoly, then the answer is "No". Microsoft is not a monopoly as there are competitors on operating software, hardware, cloud computing, software solutions, etcetera.
