Description

Enterprise players are not born overnight, and the march upmarket cannot come at the cost of the customers that helped get you there. Zendesk’s ability to balance Enterprise customer needs with SMBs has allowed it to thrive and become one of the very few SaaS companies to exceed $1B in annual revenue. In this podcast, Adrian McDermott, Zendesk’s Chief Technology Officer, will explore the importance of balance in pursuing fast, sustainable growth.
