Mission / Overview

  • The Microsoft device ecosystem is evolving rapidly.  As we’ve evolved our Windows Update capability for a SaaS delivery model, we’ve learned how important it is for the update experience to harmonize with our mission to empower users to be more productive.  User experience and productivity is materially impacted when updates go wrong, when updates aren’t coordinated, or when updates aren’t installed in a timely manner.  This is as true on PCs and Macs as it is on digital signs, security cameras, connected vehicles and other IoT device workloads.
  • Microsoft is uniquely positioned, with our cloud and intelligence capabilities and a track record of performing software servicing and delivery at an unmatched scale, to deliver an intelligent software update platform and experience that disappears into the background of modern life and modern work.

We believe in being experimental, learning constantly, being scrappy while bringing order to disorder, helping each other as humans and professionals to be our best possible selves. We believe great ideas come from a diversity of backgrounds, experiences, and cognitive styles.
