- 2. KeyCorp analysts commented, "We attended an Avalara user group meeting last Thursday in San Francisco. Two things stood out from discussions with customers and partners: 1) the Wayfair ruling is not only driving interest across new customers, but there is also an incremental upsell opportunity with existing customers; and 2) we came away surprised by the number of large enterprises in attendance. This event reinforces our confidence in the market opportunity tied to sales tax compliance and the potential upside levers to Avalara’s model over the next four quarters. Wayfair ruling could increase the land and expand opportunities. Last week’s user event exposed a strong desire to automate sales tax functions to help ensure compliance with the quickly changing tax landscape." (10/14/2018)
