[Audio] Copado created its Express Edition specifically to enable Salesforce delivery teams either transitioning from Salesforce Change Sets or new to DevOps to get started. Utilizing essential version control and deployment features without the complexity of more advanced DevOps functionalities, teams have the flexibility to grow as their requirements increase. This Edition has enabled Copado to penetrate the mid-market with an Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) potential of up to $1.5 Billion. Subsequently, Copado has captured a market share of up to 6.3%, with ARR ranging from $88 million to $182 million, demonstrating the potential of the Express Edition in expanding Copado's presence in the mid-market and securing a larger slice of the pie..

[Audio] Ideal customers for us typically have between 5-20 team members, an AOV of $5M or lower and a budget of $100k or under. They require their process to run smoothly from the start and need to keep scalability in mind. They are seeking short-term solutions and a 'crawl-walk-run' style approach, but need to be aware of the benefits of version control and mature DevOps processes. Mid-market DevOps teams generally use change sets and point solutions with a loosely defined process, and they tend to have only 1-2 staff managing a single Salesforce org. When making decisions, the focus is on scalability and getting a one-stop-shop solution to cover their short-term needs..
