Understanding Enterprise Readiness
The podcast discusses the concept of being 'enterprise ready' for businesses, emphasizing that the transition to this stage is not a singular event but a series of developments. Many companies, even small or medium-sized businesses, might require enterprise features like Single Sign-On (SSO) sooner than expected, especially those focused on security. The speaker suggests that features traditionally viewed as 'enterprise-only' can be valuable for smaller firms that prioritize data protection. This reality encourages businesses to evaluate their needs continuously as they scale rather than waiting until they reach a larger size.
