Arraytics: Year in Review [2023]

What a Year it has been! 🙌

So many trials and errors, and yet, we have managed to set milestones every step of the way. 

The year 2023 was a great page in our book because it was tough yet thriving. We enjoyed every bit of challenge that came around, and instead of cracking under pressure, we overcame them all with absolute teamwork.

Through sheer collaboration and constantly throwing ourselves into the pit of the learning curve, we made success with all our product lines, our WordPress plugins, and all the great software yet to arrive. 

Nevertheless, 2023 for Arraytics was a year full of innovation including new product launches, groundbreaking updates, and more!

Not to mention, the endless fun, laughter, Table Tennis battles, birthday surprises, and eating out with teammates have always been a morale booster throughout the year. 

So before jumping into the uncertain possibility of 2024, let’s take a moment to look back and reflect on all the great moments we crafted together in the year 2023. 

Let’s find out the achievements and memories we have forged together. Let’s have a year in review!

Our support was overwhelmed with lots of issues, queries, and troubleshooting guides from all over the product ranges we had from Arraytics & ThemeWinter. But our proactive members from the support team kept 24/7 active to make sure not a single ticket went missing.

They single-handedly covered all the queries as well as played a vital role in documentation, product development, and market research to bring forth the features the market wants the most.

But in 2023, the team didn’t stop impressing. This year, the Theme Developers team has launched a new theme called ‘EventPlace’. It’s a WordPress plugin designed to build a multivendor event marketplace on your WordPress website.

Powered by the Eventin and Dokan Multivendor plugin, this WordPress enables you to use Drag & Drop builder and customize everything you see fit, while checking the vendor list, organizer list, venue list, event list, etc.

But what’s more? The teams continued to update all the existing themes in the market, to improve the user experience and delight the customers with the highest intent. There they are:

🔥 Eventplace	💻 Cuinare	🎩 Bascart
✅ Qoxag	📚 Courselog	📝Privsa
🚀 Turitor	🎭 Instive	💥 Digiqole

All the WordPress themes & their updates took days & nights for the developers to implement.

And they made it happen.

But that doesn’t stop there, the design team has set goals to bring forth a massive change in all our product segments in 2024, to change the way the users work in WordPress plugins and SaaS products and improve the user experience to the highest peak.

And now, the Content Marketing team is now stepping up to the next stage in 2024 to take the branding, marketing communications on all digital channels, and both inbound & outbound marketing strategies to the next level.

Annual Retreat 🚀🚀

Enough work! Now it’s time to retreat! 

Arraytics made a long tour to Bandarban in Chittagong, the mountainside of Bangladesh, and cherished there in the winter cold. 

It felt like unpacking all the stress and throwing it away from the mountaintop as we felt the sun shining with new hopes. We took time to refresh our spirit, reflect on all our hard work and achievements, and share our goals to plan for the year ahead. 

It was a great moment spent together. 

Buffet Meetup: Taking a Break 🍔

We paused in between all the work. 

While we were hellbent on meeting goals, we gave a treat to ourselves with a buffet meetup. All the team members, both in-house and remote, came along and shared food. It was fun, especially the food challenges we colleagues played on who can eat the most, and won the prizes. 

After all, we cheered up and discussed where we are now and where we should be for the rest of the year. The journey continued.
