As always at this nostalgic time of the year, we hit a well-deserved pause to reflect on how far on our professional journey we have already come, and get excited at the direction we are heading in with our software endeavours. 2020 was a tough year on a number of levels. We have been forced to keep our distance, and spent almost zero time working side by side. However, despite the trying times we all experienced, we made sure no job has been lost. If anything, we have become more of a family, and are working actively on getting it even bigger in the near future. By sharing the same strong passion for innovation, we have pulled off some amazing feats in 2020, and got even more companies faring better with the help of our software. So, grab a drink, pull up a chair, and enjoy this insightful flashback through the past twelve months.

Go big or go home, or for 2020…
Go big from home

This year coronavirus has been shaking up the familiar patterns in business and consumer habits on a staggering scale. And though the full aftermath of this black swan event is yet to be determined, it is already plain that the pandemic has triggered irrecoverable change across industries. While many companies have felt the inevitable pain of reducing or suspending daily operations, we have rised to the challenges that switching to remote working almost overnight brought on, and weathered the logistical storm. There hasn’t been a day that we stopped working our socks off to ensure the battle you are fighting for your business is not a losing one. Quite the opposite, we have stepped up our efforts to produce even more module updates as well as entirely new products.

We hope all this has proven definitively how strong, flexible, and sensitive to your changing needs we are. We feel both humbled and honored that our software has been helpful to you in surviving the first and worst blow of a sudden crisis, piloting your business to new horizons ahead of the competition, instead of falling into stagnation and financial decline.

At the same time, this is you, our dearest client, who has from day one been an integral part of our company’s triumph against the pandemic odds and difficulties. Without this unspeakable amount of understanding and patience that you showed us throughout the often thorny processes of adjusting our workflows, it would be twice as hard for us to settle in this not-so-normal new normalcy. If there is one thing we want you to know and always remember is that you can safely rely on our all-encompassing assistance in any sort of situation life throws at you.

Furthermore, we owe a word of most heartfelt appreciation to our code whisperers, support service rockstars, quality assurance magicians, and all other teams of ModulesGarden whose hard work and genuine commitment kept our company from drowning in those hectic times.

Cloud billing has never been that simple

After months chock-full of intensive coding sessions, we made a grand entrance into 2020 with the trailblazing WHMCS Cloud Billing project that has finally plugged the long-lasting gap in the market with a tool empowering the providers of Amazon Web Services to manage all aspects of their customer billing in the most convenient way, that is without ever leaving their WHMCS system. Supplied initially with a complete AWS integration, Cloud Billing For WHMCS is under nonstop development, and will soon be upgraded to support another major cloud computing platform – Google Cloud.

Over 25k happy customers

The dynamic growth of customer base is no doubt a significant benchmark of the company’s success, don’t you agree? This year we feel truly humbled for the privilege of being the number one software house for over 25,000 customers. The arrival of the 30,000th partner in our business family is only a matter of days now!

Smooth transition into the future

Making sure that all products remain closely suited to the fast-paced evolution of WHMCS is a timeless objective to pursue, however, 2020 boasts some particularly outstanding achievements in this field. After the series of comprehensive quality assurance and testing procedures, our Marketplace entered a full-scope integration with a landmark 8.0 generation of WHMCS!

We have no intention of slowing down, and thus are working full steam to ensure that every single module has been thoroughly tested in terms of a visual and functional compatibility with the upcoming WHMCS 8.1 as well as the fresh “Twenty-One” system theme based on Bootstrap 4.

Entering 2021 with a bang

These past months were also filled with painstaking work shoulder to shoulder with our good friends at RS Studio on the solution long sought-after by many – Lagom One Step Order Form For WHMCS. Stay tuned and follow closely the news not to miss its official arrival due early next year!

Let’s make 2021 our best year ever together!

It didn’t escape our notice that over the past years many companies offering cloud solutions to their customers have been struggling to have the tracking of usage and spending aligned with the invoicing process. Not to mention that more often than not, all of it takes place outside of their primary management and billing software. Sadly, a considerable part of those entrepreneurs is probably still juggling a lot of balls in the air at once with complex spreadsheets compiling monthly reports and wasting huge amounts of time on the manual nature of such a method.

A couple of months ago, we arrived at an ultimate decision that the time has come to bring a definite end to this state of affairs. Because after all, it’s not about ideas – it’s about making ideas happen. We concentrated all our efforts on the delivery of an absolutely unprecedented, all-in-one cloud billing solution designed specifically for WHMCS. And today it is finally here in its full glory, the only such product that will let you gain a birds-eye view on your customer billing from but a single control panel – AWS Billing For WHMCS!

This all-embracing solution by means of a full-blown integration with the WHMCS system is meant to help AWS providers manage all elements of customer billing under the roof of their leading control panel and remove the pain of having to create and manage separate invoicing systems. Instead of spending hours over complex spreadsheets, companies will be enabled to reduce manual workload as well as decrease the likelihood of errors. Not to mention the fact that since billing is often the main (or even the only) point of customer-enterprise interaction, providing your clients with accurate and timely invoicing as well as real-time access to their charges and resource usage is essential to a first-rate customer service and satisfaction.

How does it work in practice?

For starters, our tool will let you save heaps of time devoted to the management of your Amazon Web Services, now that you will be empowered to gather all of them together in a single place and have every single important detail displayed in the Dashboard. One quick look will be enough to take notice of the most important information about your invoices and earnings from a given time period, while through the access to flexible graphs you will be given the possibility to control your overall expenses and earnings as well as choose the preferred time scope and services to be displayed, or even view your most profitable clients. Trust us, with such detailed insight given on a silver plate, making well-informed decisions and taking action whenever required will be a child’s play!

Predominantly, however, after you set up your custom percentage margin and the preferred billing method per each of the offered Amazon Web Services, your clients will be charged on the basis of the previously set fees in an entirely automated way. The whole process is extremely straightforward – an appropriate percentage of the value defined in the configuration will be added to the cost generated by the customer infrastructure and an appropriate invoice will be issued afterward. As simple as that!

What does our solution offer?

While we are on that topic, it is crucial to point your attention at the fact that a rising number of innovative and prosperous companies all across the globe successfully cultivate ever-new revenue channels, diversifying their income sources and improving the chances of earning an above-average year-end profit. Let’s be realistic – as a business owner yourself, you would surely prefer to have more revenue streams on your disposal than to base your income on a single one only, isn’t that right? Especially when we are talking about operating in such a highly competitive environment as a web hosting market.

Luckily, upon bringing AWS Billing For WHMCS into service, you will receive all means to do so. As simple a solution as it may seem, it will be a true game-changer when talking about expanding your target audience – with the solid ground of WHMCS and AWS combined powers to work with, you can expect nothing else but growing your reach, attracting larger audience and watching how your revenue reaches the heights you would never expect to be possible.

Do you need any more arguments? Good, because it so happens that we saved the best for last!
