The download counts are again setting yet another record. This time we are going to touch 48000 or so a month. Well, I was expecting some more but nevertheless, it is still a record. The shortfall may be due to the holidays in the US and Europe.
There have been queries about vtiger’s financial status and stability.
Let me assure you that vtiger is financially very stable. We expect to start making profits by early next year. So, that gives you an idea of the company. Our costs are low, we are seeing good traction for vtiger 5. The downloads prove that, the forum posts prove that, the number of subscriptions and service requests that we have prove that.
We have increased the team size to 12 to accomodate the rush. So, please be rest assured. We are not fly-by-night operators. We mean business and we are committed to the long run.
We have a good team. We are putting in efforts to ensure that 5.0.3 is damn good and is something that everyone can trust and bet their money on. Those who have already bet their money on vtiger, I personally assure you that all is well and there is nothing to worry about.
Your constant appreciation in terms of being sponsors, buying support packages, customization requests have helped us come to this stage where we are close to break even. I am not saying that we are going to make bumper profits but then we will be profitable early next year. Come on, I cannot tell you all the figures can I ;-)! You never tell us how many users are actually using the software and how much support you are actually subscribing to, do you ;-)!
Just kidding anyway.
Be assured. We are here for the long run. Just vtiger it!
