"The goal was to bring together the best team of people with the best technologies [and combine] their success in the marketplace with our expertise," Raikes said.

The new search technology will integrate with Microsoft's software-plus-services' strategy, allowing corporate users to choose from a blend of on-premise packages and Microsoft-hosted software, Raikes said.

Until now, businesses have been forced to choose between high-end search technologies and more mainstream offerings, Raikes said.

Microsoft was down 28 cents, or 0.8%, to $34.33 in recent trading.
