Cons
- Most of the leadership lacks technical data expertise which creates friction in the sales motions and positioning.
- Currently a small total addressable market. EDB does not compete well with cloud competitors and primarily is geared towards on-prem Postgres in a market that continues to migrate to the cloud.
- High turnover across the sales org.
- Long, difficult sales motion accompanied by expectations for quick wins.
