We are seeing record top of funnel volume, demand around the globe, and rapid expansions within our customer base." "continued momentum in enterprise. We're closing larger deals and expanding seats across departments and geographies quickly in large organizations." "Our largest customers are recognizing the increasing value and scalability of our unique Work Graph data model." "customer adoption and retention is as good or better than it has ever been." "we are currently experiencing one of the biggest workplace transformations... increased workloads... barriers to productivity." "Our product roadmap continues to be strong." "we announced Asana Partners... 7 new languages... Universal Reporting... suite of new features... deep integration with Zoom... On October 20, at our enterprise event called Scale, we'll be unveiling a suite of new features to help large organizations orchestrate work across departments and geographies to achieve their goals. And finally, we remain on track to launch our entirely new take on workflows at the end of our fiscal year." This is company's own product roadmap. Chris: "We continue to see record top of funnel growth. We also completed the additional language rollout for the year and now have 13 languages in total." "we are seeing our investments paying off in enterprise, driving continued enterprise momentum." "IDC study... 224% ROI..." "We had some spectacular customer wins... ViacomCBS... Fujitsu expanded... Just Eat Takeaway expanded... Cohesity... standardized on Asana's enterprise solution." "As we look forward to the second half of the year and beyond, we're continuing to focus our business on 3 major growth drivers: acquiring new customers; expanding our existing customer base; and maintaining our enterprise momentum. As we saw from the results, the playbook is working for us. Going forward, it's all about adoption and scale." This is company's own strategy.
