Company Report

Expanding Portfolio Underscores Switching Costs for Narrow-Moat Zoom

Zoom Video Communications’ mission is "to make video communications frictionless," which it accomplishes with a unified, video-first communications platform that incorporates video, voice, chat, and content sharing. More recently, Zoom introduced a phone system and a contact center solution. The company offers a differentiated peer-to-peer technology, complete with proprietary routing technology. Zoom is a recognized market leader in meeting software and is disrupting and expanding the $100 billion market for collaboration software with its ease of use and superior user experience. We think the pandemic lockdowns demonstrated the strength of the solutions, which combined with an expanding portfolio help establish a narrow moat.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Zoom's user base and revenue surged during the pandemic; we expect most of these users to remain customers and drive continued growth in the coming years.

Bears

The biggest risk facing Zoom is executing across so many different aspects of growth simultaneously. For example, Zoom Phone is a more complex sale, and the company is moving from smaller to larger customers.
