VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 11/23/16 -- Moovly Media Inc. (TSX VENTURE: MVY)(FRANKFURT: OPV2) ("Moovly" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has exceeded the one million registered user mark, with user growth stronger than ever over the past three months.
Key Statistics:
-- Users from more than 300 of the Fortune 500 companies. -- Users from over 35,000 educational institutions and schools worldwide. -- Demographics show an equal split between male and female users. -- About 70% of users are under the age of 35 years. -- North America is the fastest growing market and the market with most potential. -- Strong growth is also seen from emerging markets in Latin America and Asia. -- Within the last 90 days, Moovly experienced its strongest absolute user growth in the Company's history.
Brendon Grunewald, CEO of Moovly, commented, "One million users is a unique milestone for any company. Our growth so far has been almost entirely organic with very minimal marketing expenditures. This year was intended to be one of consolidation with several investments and migrations, including our next generation platform launched in May, which enabled the launching of our mobile app, the new HTML5 editor, an open API and the VideoBlocks partnership. Furthermore, with significant investments in in-house systems to position the Company to scale going forward, Moovly will end 2016 in a significantly stronger position than it entered, and we look forward to what 2017 has in store."
Moovly's impressive organic growth can be attributed to its leadership in the following areas:
-- Offering more value and customization capability at each licence level compared to the direct competition. -- An increased focus on video in addition to graphical multimedia content such as presentations, banners or e-cards. -- A strong user interface and user experience focus, allowing non- experienced users to easily make professional looking content. -- The ability for users to make amazingly rich multimedia content, further enhanced by the recent announcement of the VideoBlocks partnership, adding over US$10 million worth of digital assets to its user libraries. -- A powerful backend platform and render server farm with an advanced API accessible to 3rd parties. -- As Flash continues to be phased out, the introduction of a HTML5 based Editor and mobile app is in line with market trends.
