Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Elastic (ESTC.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Elastic's recent quarterly outcomes suggest that the changes in the sales organization might not have been as disruptive as initially anticipated, though risks still persist. Additionally, while the company's revised guidance for FY25 forecasts a revenue growth of 10%-13% year-over-year by the end of FY25, this projection is perceived with a degree of conservatism and appears somewhat unexciting given the dynamic end-markets such as gen-AI, security, and observability that Elastic operates within.
The company's results showed an improvement compared to its first quarter performance, and the management's overall tone remained positive. Early indicators suggest that the changes made to the go-to-market strategy in Q1 are beginning to positively impact key customer metrics, particularly in commitments towards GenAI technologies, despite the company's cautious forward outlook.
Following a less impressive fiscal first quarter, Elastic exhibited stronger than anticipated performance in the third quarter, driven by widespread demand and enhanced sales execution. The guidance presented seems conservative, potentially establishing targets that are achievable or exceedable.
Elastic's Q2 results slightly exceeded expectations, and the changes in management were seen as a positive influence following recent challenges in execution.
Elastic reported a robust rebound in its recent quarter, surpassing top-line expectations by over 3%. This improvement was facilitated by a revitalized go-to-market strategy, which paved the way for effective sales execution marked by multi-year commitments. Moreover, noteworthy consumption trends, particularly amongst Elastic's major clients, contributed to this performance. The expectations of sustained sales effectiveness, increasing client consumption, opportunities in the growing GenAI sector, and continued operational efficiency, are seen as catalysts for Elastic's expected outperformance in the upcoming quarters.

此外,綜合報道,$Elastic (ESTC.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下:
Elastic最近的季度業績表明,銷售組織的變化可能沒有最初預期的那麼具有破壞性,雖然風險仍然存在。此外,儘管公司修訂的FY25指引預計到FY25年底實現10%-13%的年度營業收入增長,但此預測被視爲保守,並且在Elastic運營的動態終端市場,如gen-AI、安防-半導體和可觀察性中顯得有些乏味。
公司的業績較第一季度有所改善,管理層整體態度保持積極。初步因子顯示,在第一季度對市場策略所做的更改開始積極影響關鍵客戶指標,尤其是在對GenAI技術的承諾方面,儘管公司對前景持謹慎態度。
在較不理想的財務第一季度之後,Elastic在第三季度表現強勁,受到廣泛需求和提升的銷售執行力驅動。提出的指引似乎保守,可能設定了可實現或超越的目標。
Elastic的Q2業績略高於預期,管理層的變動被視爲近期執行挑戰後的積極影響。
Elastic在最近一個季度報告了強勁的反彈,收入超過預期的3%以上。這一改善得益於一項復甦的市場策略,爲多年的承諾標誌性有效銷售執行鋪平了道路。此外,尤其是在Elastic的主要客戶之間值得關注的消費趨勢有助於這一表現。對持續銷售有效性、客戶消費增加、在不斷增長的GenAI領域中的機會以及持續的運營效率的期望被視爲Elastic在未來幾個季度中預期表現強勁的催化劑。
