revenue leading them to an IPO earlier this year. For a sneak peek check out this interview: Freemium, Conversion

the API-driven cloud monitoring space. David will talk about the freemium pricing decision for business services like

Cloudkick, and the role of Sales in freemium pricing models. David, now co-founder & CEO of CloudAmp, a sales

analytics company for SaaS/Web apps, will also talk about optimizing conversion rates for freemium B2B services.
