Just how do you see the core value proposition with customers changing over the next couple of years?


Question: Meta Marshall - Morgan Stanley - Analyst : With you Vlad just kind of laid out this going from product to platform. How does that change kind of how you think about the growth algorithm of the company just in terms of how much comes from core markets versus kind of new products versus new customers?


Question: Meta Marshall - Morgan Stanley - Analyst : Got it. Kira, maybe turning to you. RingCentral has always had this very good go-to-market kind of master agent channel, a lot of partnerships. Just how does go-to-market change? Or how does -- who you rely on for kind of the preponderance of the growth change as you expand the portfolio?


Question: Meta Marshall - Morgan Stanley - Analyst : Okay. Perfect. I may be back to you. You've talked about kind of already getting $50 million towards this kind of $100 million ARR target. Just what were kind of the most important steps to getting to the $50 million? And then just what kind of gets you to that $100 million either from a getting people trained up or macro, just kind of what gets you -- what got you to $50 million and what gets you to $100.


Question: Meta Marshall - Morgan Stanley - Analyst : Got it. Either later Kira, just how does the move towards platform and kind of incorporation of more products.

And are all of kind of current RingCentral customers today ideal for adopting more products from RingCentral?


Question: Meta Marshall - Morgan Stanley - Analyst : Okay. So with such a valuable kind of value proposition, what are kind of specific efforts to sell that into the installed base or to kind of circle back with the existing customers to kind of upsell them? And is that opportunity just when the contract is up? Or like when are you finding that opportunity to touch that customer?
