What they do
Powell transforms Microsoft 365 into the intranet and digital workplace "your people actually use" and "the trusted knowledge base your AI needs". Its platform consists of Powell Intranet and Powell Governance, bringing search, publishing and HR/IT requests together within Microsoft 365 while maintaining governance and security.
The idea started near Lake Powell, Utah, in 2014 with a small team of SharePoint experts; it became a company in 2015. Powell Software SAS is registered in Paris, France, with offices in Viroflay (HQ Paris), Cologne, Spokane and Rozelle (Australia).
Powell serves 500+ organisations and 2+ million users across every industry, 70+ partners in 35+ countries, ISO 27001 certification and Microsoft co-sell readiness. Cathay Capital became majority shareholder in October 2025.
