How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Unless you’re loaded with money, Kapost isn’t meant for you. The content marketing platform sure have too many bells & whistles, but it doesn’t cuts it for small to medium content teams. Even for teams with a large freelancers base, it’s time consuming & complicated to train new contributors with Kapost. It’s out and out an enterprise product, so for companies that can’t afford it, I suggest you look at a less expense alternative like [ link deleted, please do not post links in reviews ] I have been researching other solutions and I have to say that the folks at Betaout have built a great tool. It’s a complete solution for those who are struggling with task management and lengthy editorial workflows. I also liked their fully blown editorial calendar which offers 3 different views as per the status of your assignments. The Idearoom at ContentCloud too is a very interesting interface to brainstorm with your team of writers. Simple & intuitive interface gets the work done quickly, cuts down your administrative tasks involved throughout the content creation process & doesn’t requires training. And the good part is, it costs way less.
