google desktop falters -- windows 7 takes off according to janco
the august 2010 browser and operating system market share white paper has just been released by janco associates.
park city, ut – janco has just released its browser and operating system market share white paper. the study shows that in the last 12 months microsoft’s browser market share has continued to erode – microsoft lost over 4% in the last 12 months; firefox’s market share is unchanged for the last 12 months; and google desktop and chrome now have just under 6%. on the operating systems side, windows 7 is being accepted at a pace is parallel to the way window xp was in the 90’s. the ceo of janco associates, victor janulaitis said, “the last six months have been a mixed bag for microsoft. their browser market share has fallen to level that they back in 1998 with no end in sight. at the same time windows 7 now has 17% of the os market in less than 13 months since its availability.
the study shows that:
* firefox challenged microsoft as no other competitor has done in quite some time but microsoft seems to have addressed this
* the smartphone market has taken off and users no longer have to depend on a pc to access the internet
* users are staying current with the latest versions of ie, and firefox via the automatic update feature.
* google’s chrome is disappointing and has captured only a little over 5% of the browser market since its introduction.
* internet explorer’s market share continues to fall.
* attacks on browsers are moving many users to the automatic update feature to get the latest versions of the browsers.
* the door was open for google with both desktop and chrome – it is not clear that the current offering by microsoft’s competitors can do more damage to microsoft browser market share. however microsoft must address the smartphone market to maintain its leadership position.
a summary of the study can be read at http://www.itproductivity.org/browser.htm and http://e-janco.com/browser.htm.
