Vladimir G. Shmunis - RingCentral, Inc.
Management
Right. Yeah. Hi, Meta, Vlad here. So, thanks for the congrats, it was indeed a good quarter. So, to answer your questions, so, we just had a user conference, I think I mentioned just briefly now. And the way I opened it is, I specifically stated what RingCentral is all about and how we see it. So, how we see it is enabling our customers to be more responsive to their customers. That was my opening line. So, RingCentral never has been about just internal communications, it's always been about enabling and empowering employees of our customers to be more responsive both within and without. So, certainly including external communications. And if you were to look at, for example, the way that our traffic breaks out, most certainly vast, vast majority of that is external to the company, so customers calling in. So, that has been the case, will continue to remain the case. And as a matter of fact, if you were to double click on that, but especially in the collaboration space, we have always been quite religious about making sure that external suppliers, customers, whatever or guest to the system as we would call them. That they would have similar access as employees would be, always appropriate protections in place of course. And this actually is a differentiated position for us. So, in any case, external, I would say, will be more of a strength for us as opposed to something that we would need to add. As to your second question, it's a great question and it speaks to our strength. So, we continue to be the only scaled up vendor with the truly open platform. And our direct cloud competitors are simply not there. And what it means is that, when we go in, quite often, we will be able to either offer a necessary integration or integrations, plural, straight out of the box and that includes all of those which you've already mentioned. But there are also many other cases where people have other software or cloud software that is not on our list, but because we have open APIs and a developer framework, our customers are able to provide those themselves. That's a huge differentiating point. So, we very much see ourselves as a member of the cloud ecosystem. We are, at this point, one of the larger vendors in the space, but we work both with our peers; companies larger than ourselves such as Salesforce and mainly, again true developers with many smaller vendors. And again, at our user conference, we have some nice examples. For example, one of the up and coming AI players is now providing integrations for RingCentral. It's a long list.
