Wow! We've finally released Version 1.0 of frevvo. As usual, it was harder and took longer than we expected. Part of it was for good reasons: we got some interesting feedback from our Beta users and we decided to take the time to implement a couple of features.
It sure was quite a journey – we had plenty of ups and downs but fortunately many more ups than downs. It's been quite different from my last company (Metaserver, which was acquired by Whitehill Technologies). Unlike last time, we didn't raise any money, didn't try to rapidly grow before we had any customers and just took a different path – we've behaved like a small company. And, interestingly it's not been much harder to do. I suppose the fact that nowadays the cost of software, hardware etc. is essentially zero helps but we haven't really missed the people that we had last time, at least so far. It sure looks like the trend – so many products/companies are launched in less time and with far less money than before. We'll have to wait and see if more of them end up being successful than last time but I've got to believe that fiscal discipline from the get-go is a good thing.
Anyway, congratulations to Yuri, Nancy and Leandro and thanks for all the hard work that's been put in over so many months to get frevvo out the door. It's a cool product for sure and one that we hope is going to prove very useful for a lot of people.
