Aneel Bhusri - Chief Executive Officer
Management
Thanks Mike. Earlier this month, we hosted Workday Rising, our eighth annual customer conference. Event attendance reached a record high with more than 4,500 customers, prospects, partners, media, industry analysts and employees joining us from San Francisco. I will take a moment to share some of the highlights here. Each day at Workday Rising we announce results of our customer satisfaction survey. Our company goal is to always have at least 95% customer satisfaction rate. We are very pleased to announce that for the third year in a row Workday achieved a 97% customer satisfaction rate. When we started Workday in 2005, it was the promise to bring customer focus back to the business of enterprise applications. We are honored and humbled to maintain these levels of satisfaction not generally associated with enterprise software. We also introduced a new suite of applications called Workday Insight Applications. We believe these applications leapfrog current analytics by combining Workday data and third-party data and not just offering predictions, but actually recommending how business leaders should take action. Workday Insight Applications will harness advanced data science and machine learning algorithms to equip customers to make business-critical, financial and workforce decisions. We plan to deliver initial Workday Insight Applications in calendar year 2015 and additional details on availability and pricing will be disclosed at a later date. I believe these applications will market new era of analytics that will provide our users with a true competitive edge. Focusing in on the third quarter, I’d like to discuss two areas of momentum before turning it over to Mark, continued customer demand among large organizations in Europe and very positive success amongst our financial management customers. First, Unilever co-headquartered in London and Rotterdam joined us in the quarter as a new Workday Human Capital Management customer. Unilever has more than 174,000 employees across more than 90 countries. Unilever joins our growing European customer community, including Rolls-Royce, Sanofi, Philips, Piaggio and many others. We also continue to make big strides with Workday Financial Management and in September we announced that we have passed the 100 customer milestone. In the quarter, we welcome new customers across range of industries, including technology services, business services and higher education. As we have said before, customers selecting Workday is only the first step, a real measure of success as happy live customers. And as of today, almost half of our financial management customers are live. As we shared at Workday Rising, the City of Orlando is now live with financial management, human capital management and shelter insurance provider of home, life, auto and business insurance to customers in 17 states also recently went live with Workday Financial Management. We continued to be excited about the prospects for our financial applications as we head into 2015 with good momentum. And now back over to you Mark.
