The importance and influence of this space on our development over the years, given the numbers alone, can in no way be understated. With the recent spat of developments, changes in who we are as a company, and in preparation for the release of Vtiger 6 (which is now slated for release in early May), we thought that it was time to show some love to the community and resources that helped shape who we are today &#8211; so we did. Without further ado, say &#8220;hello&#8221; to your new forums (powered by Vanilla Forums!) at <a href=\"https:\/\/discussions.vtiger.com\">discussions.vtiger.com<\/a>!:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1406\" title=\"New Bitmap Image (2)\" src=\"https:\/\/vtiger.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/New-Bitmap-Image-2-1024x415.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"695\" height=\"281\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>discussions.vtiger.com is now live!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">That being said, after more than eight years of faithful service, our trusty phpBB forum is being retired. It is currently in archived read-only mode over at forums.vtiger.com.
