ListingPro Recap Of 2020 – The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

It’s hard to believe 2020 is over. A lot has happened in 2020 and we all have lost and gained something or someone. In many ways last year was overwhelming for everyone around the world. It felt like we all had united during this pandemic as if there was an Alien invasion. At least with Aliens it would be super exciting to watch them and their fancy spaceships but with the pandemic it was an invisible enemy and you had no idea when, how or where it will attack.

Hopefully soon we can all put this behind us and focus on the better days a head of us.

SUMMARY

Like for everyone this was also a very challenging year for us as well because we had all our team working remotely for most part of the year and on the other hand it was the most productive year for us as we were not only able to release Version 2.5, a major update (Read What’s New in 2.5) during the start of the year (Jan 3rd, 2020) and gave 17 updates (See Update Logs) and closed with a v2.6, which was mainly focus on fixing bugs and also many minor and major improvements along with some security vulnerability found towards the end of the year.

In the midst of all this madness we were honored to become a Power Elite Author and leave our mark on the famous The Envato Power Elite Wall of Fame. Few years ago if you would have asked us if this was possible for us we would have laughed it off. We want to thank every single one of you who helped us get here. We couldn’t have done it with you and we mean it. Whether you left us a 5-star or 1-star (Current average rating of 4.8 based on 1700 users), they all helped us to stay focused and stay on our toes.

With nearly 20,000 licenses sold, making ListingPro the #1 directory & listing product on Envato marketplace or probably outside the marketplace as well. Leaving all our competitors in the directory themes market way behind in the race.
