Here's why they're wrong.</p>\n<p>Last year, Wall Street couldn't get enough of <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a> Video Communications</b> (NASDAQ:ZM). The stock climbed 396% in 2020, fueled by the company's supercharged financial performance during the height of the pandemic. However, things have reversed course this year, and the stock now sits 66% below its all-time high.</p>\n<p>Of course, many tech stocks have sold off sharply in recent months, but the driving force behind Zoom's nosedive is perception. Many investors still view Zoom as a \"COVID stock,\" failing to see the company's relevance beyond the pandemic. Fortunately, that has created a buying opportunity for long-term investors.</p>\n<h2>More than videoconferencing</h2>\n<p>Zoom is a video-first communications company. Its cornerstone product is Zoom Meetings, an app that makes it possible for people to work and engage remotely. But Zoom's platform goes much deeper, providing a comprehensive solution for voice calling, videoconferencing, messaging, and content sharing. To that end, the company aims to displace legacy communications infrastructure.</p>\n<p>For instance, Zoom Phone is a cloud phone system that eliminates the need for costly on-site hardware. And Zoom Rooms is a conferencing solution for hybrid workforces, blending software and hardware to turn corporate offices into professional collaboration suites. That's particularly relevant, because just 25% of enterprise meetings will take place in person by 2024, down from 60% today, according to technology research company <b>Gartner</b>.</p>\n<p>Additionally, the Zoom Developer Platform is a suite of tools that allow third-party developers to build integrations and applications with Zoom. Those solutions are then made available through the Zoom App Marketplace, adding Zoom functionality to popular software like <b>Microsoft</b> Teams, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HUBS\">HubSpot</a></b>, and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRM\">Salesforce</a></b>. In short, Zoom's comprehensive communications platform is designed to meet the needs of modern enterprises, whether their employees are in the office or working remotely.</p>\n<p>On that note, Gartner recently recognized Zoom as a leader in both the meetings solutions market and the broader unified communications as a service (UCaaS) industry, highlighting its successful expansion beyond videoconferencing. That validates management's growth strategy, and it should ease any fears about Zoom becoming less relevant in a post-pandemic world.</p>\n<h2>Solid financial performance</h2>\n<p>Though growth is slowing, Zoom has still delivered strong financial results in fiscal 2022. Of particular note, Zoom Phone saw triple-digit sales growth in the most recent quarter, and the company's total customer count rose 18% to 512,100.</p>\n<p>Moreover, 2,507 of those customers spent at least $100,000 during the past 12 months, up 94% from the prior year. That's encouraging -- those big spenders are less likely to churn, simply because they've come to rely so heavily on Zoom.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n <tr>\n <th><p>Metric</p></th>\n <th><p>Q3 2021 (TTM)</p></th>\n <th><p>Q3 2022 (TTM)</p></th>\n <th><p>Change</p></th>\n </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td><p>Revenue</p></td>\n <td><p>$2.0 billion</p></td>\n <td><p>$3.9 billion</p></td>\n <td><p>100%</p></td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <td><p>Free cash flow</p></td>\n <td><p>$1.0 billion</p></td>\n <td><p>$1.7 billion</p></td>\n <td><p>59%</p></td>\n </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Data source: YCharts. TTM = trailing-12-months. Note: Fiscal Q3 2022 ended Oct. 31, 2021.</p>\n<p>Looking ahead, shareholders should expect tough competition with Microsoft, a tech titan with much deeper pockets. However, Zoom's popularity soared during the pandemic, so much so that its brand name has become a verb. And that popularity should keep the company on the radar of potential clients.</p>\n<h2>A strong corporate culture</h2>\n<p>As a final point of consideration, investors shouldn't overlook the impact of Zoom's founder-led management team. CEO Eric Yuan once said: \"My number <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> priority is to make sure our employees are happy, and then they can deliver happiness to our customers.\" And he has clearly made good on that mission.</p>\n<p>According to Glassdoor, 88% of employees would recommend Zoom to a friend, and 95% approve of Yuan's leadership. That has indeed translated into customer satisfaction. Zoom has kept its expansion rate over 130% for 14 consecutive quarters, meaning the average customer spends at least 30% more each year.</p>\n<p>Here's the bottom line: Gartner estimates that 32% of all employees will work remotely at least some of the time by the end of 2021, up from 17% in 2019. That trend toward hybrid work represents a significant opportunity for Zoom. In fact, management puts its addressable market at $91 billion by 2025. Yet the stock trades at just 14 times sales -- its cheapest valuation since the company went public in April 2019.</p>\n<p>Is Zoom really worth less today than it was before the pandemic? I don't think so. That's why now looks like a good time to buy a few shares.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Tech Sell-Off: My Best Stock to Buy and Hold Right Now</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nTech Sell-Off: My Best Stock to Buy and Hold Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-12-06 10:51 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/12/05/tech-sell-off-my-best-stock-to-buy-and-hold-now/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Many investors still view Zoom as a COVID stock.
