I feel that when you have 1600 employees, you're not that scrappy or nimble. It's not like David or Goliath anymore.

We respectfully disagree. Our Zoho Leads iPhone app was launched in under 3 months from concept to shipment, and it was done by 2 people and it is selling! We have a substantial degree of autonomy in the company (possible because we are private) which keeps us nimble.

On David vs Goliath, Microsoft, Google & Salesforce are just 3 of the companies we compete with.

Seems kinda relative right? Compared to 10,000 it isn't a lot.
