Microsoft Corporation vs Salesforce, Inc., side by side — the numbers that matter, in plain English. No “winner” hype; you decide.

| P/E ratio | 28.1 | 22.9 |
| ROE | 34.04% | 16.91% |
| Profit margin | 40.30% | 18.73% |
| Revenue growth | 17.70% | 13.30% |
| Dividend yield | 0.72% | 0.91% |

Green = the more favorable figure for that metric (lower P/E, higher ROE, margin, growth and yield). Not a recommendation.
