It was a whirlwind couple of months for us.Įven though stay home orders ended at different times depending on location, we’re still seeing higher active users now than we did in 2019. Like many remote software teams, we spent March and April onboarding customers who were suddenly leading teams from home. How did the company as a whole do? The financials That’s what happened with our time tracking and Agile project management software. Our revenue went up and our churn went down in the past year, which are both good signs that we’re delivering the features and experience that newly and long-time remote teams need.That led to a huge increase in new Hubstaff signups in March and April as teams scrambled to track time and work asynchronously.Kitchen tables became home offices and schools. According to a recent survey, nearly 75% of companies were remote in 2020, compared to only 23% before the pandemic. Offices closed almost overnight and everyone adapted to remote work on the fly.Not to mention the new fear of our team and families getting sick. Goodbye coffee shops, our annual retreat, seeing family, traveling, weddings, and hugs.

We’ve been remote since the beginning, but this still was a huge change in how people lived and worked. A global pandemic brought restrictions and curfews to our entire team.The best way to describe it is to say 2020 was a year of ups and downs: It was a year unlike any other, and we mean that in so many ways. Looking back at the last year feels like stepping off a carnival ride.
