    Yun Kim's questions to MTTR leadership • Q3 2023

    Question

    Asked about the drivers of enterprise momentum, trends in deal size, customer reaction to price increases, and the outlook for the Net Dollar Expansion Rate (NRR).

    Answer

    Enterprise momentum is driven by sales efficiency, a strong pipeline, and improved product-market fit. Deal sizes are growing, evidenced by more large customers (>$50k ARR) and a recent eight-figure deal. The price increase did not cause an uptick in churn for SMBs, and the NRR improvement was driven by both organic growth and pricing, a trend expected to continue in Q4.
