Did anything jump out at any of you about areas where people were particularly grumpy?
34:47
One thing I, I would suggest is that there were some comments around the pace of innovation in, in a couple areas.
34:56
One is DDM, and the other is platform SSO, where the promises were made about what, uh, what declarative device management and what platform SSO would deliver, and a lot of people were super excited about the potential for those programs.
35:14
But what we've seen over the last two, three years is the rollout and the expansion of both of those to expand their capabilities, to extend their features into more areas, has been measured and somewhat slow.
35:30
Um, I c- I can feel for the folks, the fine folks over at Apple that are trying to manage the rollout and development of this because there is a lot of moving parts that need to be brought together and, and, you know, gears that need to mesh in order for this whole machine to move forward.
35:49
And we do see steady progress from year to year, from OS version to OS version.
35:55
But I do feel like the comments reflected a sentiment that we aren't nearly as far along as people had imagined we would be three years ago, let's say.
38:45
Yeah
1:19
Um, but what, uh, what's the new vision? What's the new company name, and what, you know, what does this mean for your customers and for everybody in the industry?
1:26
Yeah.
1:27
We've changed our name to Iru.
1:29
So, um, there's a little bit of backstory.
1:32
I've, I've, I've told this story a few places, but when we, um, when we started Kandji, and we were looking at names, the founders were looking at names, uh, one of the things that came up on the idea board, on the, on the whiteboard there, was the Irukanji jellyfish, and it's this, uh, very small, like, couple centimeters across jellyfish that's also poisonous, a bit of a nuisance.
1:57
It's found in Australia and other places.
1:59
And, um...
4:28
Has there been any confusion from customers of like, "Is this a new company?" Like, you know, what's been the reaction since you guys made this announcement a few months ago?
