Unfortunately, I think Chegg might end up being the punching bag that we talk about the most today when it comes to this topic.

After the break, we're going to talk about some of the ones that we don't think are in much trouble.

We'll also get into some of the ones that we really think are in trouble.

But before we do, I really want to make sure that we get Scott's question answered here, because he was specifically asking about HubSpot and Constellation.

John,

Running the gamut of SaaS companies today, where do you see HubSpot and Constellation landing on that spectrum of, hey, it'll be okay versus these companies are absolutely doomed?

Maybe it starts to get down to an almost metered usage basis and would actually fundamentally change the way that a lot of these businesses are charging how they work.
