Zoom's 2030 growth target rests on customers buying more than meetings

Zoom Communications gave its first time-bound long-range target at Zoomtopia 2026: 6% to 8% revenue growth in fiscal 2030. The target includes double-digit growth in enterprise revenue. Phone reaches only 29% of Meetings enterprise accounts today.

  • 01Zoom Phone sits in 29% of Zoom's enterprise Meetings accounts, and the fiscal 2030 growth plan reads largely as a bet on the other 71%.
  • 02Customers on three or more Zoom products had 43% lower dollar churn than customers on one or two, which Zoom cited as support for its land-and-expand strategy.
  • 03Zoom's non-current remaining performance obligations rose 25%, which Chang tied to larger, longer-term and multi-product platform agreements. For buyers weighing Phone or Contact Center, contract length is worth a close look.
