Patrick Moorhead: Hey, let’s move to the next. Let’s move this on.

Daniel Newman: Yeah. Super fast.

Patrick Moorhead: Pure rip it. Go

Daniel Newman: All right Pat. Well, you hit it on the head. That was the whole thing. 26% year on year growth, huge growth in customers. Their NPS story is world class, top 1% of companies in the marketplace. They’re seeing revenue growth. I’m sorry. Their guidance’s at 26%, their revenue growth at 30%, the subscription had over 30%. I don’t know what anyone’s talking about with the recession, but Pure Storage is absolutely rocking and rolling and their customers love using the technology. I know we’re on a really short period of time, so I’m going to just make one more comment and I’m going to pass it back to you, but this company is growing like hyper. It’s growing at the speed of Google Cloud, it’s growing at the speed of Azure, it’s growing at the speed of, twice as fast as Salesforce. It is an impressive growth rate right now for a company in boring, old storage, and so maybe storage is for boring when you put a new innovative spin on it. Great job Pure Storage, sorry we couldn’t talk more about it, but Pat has to go.

Patrick Moorhead: Pure, they saved the best infrastructure result for last. The 30% growth rates are cloud growth rates, which is obscene and amazing, and I loved what they put in there. As everybody’s talking about backlogs and lead times, normal lead times, that was a thumb to the nose of the NetApps and the Dells of the world.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
