If zoom remains independent, they have a lot of catching up to do with their chat functionality, and other productivity tools to become a meaningful offer.

Zoom’s future as a platform is a big and important next phase and why it is exciting. It’s got room to grow on it’s own but the best fit listed here is Salesforce. Seeing what they’ve done with recent acquisitions it would be the best place for Zoom to continue.

Microsoft is obviously talking about Teams as a platform so one might suspect that would be a fit, but their real platform is SharePoint that has the gravity to pull all into and burn/scar.

We are continuing to deploy new bots/new use cases as well as sustaining all existing bots in production. What have others done to define a "trip wire" for identifying when you hit max capacity?
