Reply to comment by [deleted] in [OC] Visualising Zoom's revenue and profit sources by giteam

As someone who works there and sells our product daily, you are so far off. Talking about two different companies.

Perhaps they are mistaking Zoom and ZoomInfo, very different companies but I do think that Zoom is coming out with something for sales professionals

Can you please share how Zoom makes money?

I am also curious.

They have no ads. And their paid plans are used by so few people. And streaming real-time audio-video is expensive.

Apparently they charge corporations and universities a good amount of money for their enterprise services.

Of course…Zoom is often mistaken as just a video meetings platform for consumers and businesses alike. Zoom is so much more, as it is a platform that has chat, phone, SMS, video, whiteboarding, digital signage, conference room solutions, webinars, API/SDK integrations, app marketplace, Zoom IQ (AI solution to analyze conversations), contact center and it also has an events platform. These products above vary in price; but let’s say a large enterprise customer within the S&P 500 buys 100,000 licenses of meetings and phone at $20 per user, 1,000 webinar licenses at $79 per user, and 250 Zoom Rooms… and mind you, this is billed monthly… that’s a lot of recurring revenue for the business. I’m by no means advocating for the stock or pushing anything; just giving a high level look at how revenue can be generated at Zoom.
