No, that's 15M people who work for companies who are paying users. SF claims to have 3,500 customers.

Correct me if I'm wrong. Enterprise SaaS usually charge by the seat (with a few asking for discounts). So at the end of the day whether it is 3.5k customers or 15M users. They all pay.

That is my point.
