So there's no loyalty.

There's no nothing.

So if you have a competitor and a month later, the competitor comes out with a product or a feature that's better than yours, these guys will just switch off of you.

The point of having a book contract is there's lots of points, but one of the points is you have time.

So they can't just switch off you the second something goes wrong.

I mean, I know a lot of people that think forward deployed engineers simply make up for a shitty product.

So I think there's a balance.

What are the leading indicators you're looking at in your business?
