Sharesight passes 150,000 users worldwide
We are excited to announce the Sharesight user base has grown to 150,000 global users! This is a huge achievement for Sharesight, considering it was just one year ago that we hit 100,000 users.
Sharesight has come a long way since it was founded 13 years ago – from our first paying customer in 2008 to our global launch in 2015, and now 150,000 users in more than 100 countries.
It all comes down to one simple goal: to make tracking the true performance of investments easier.
To get an understanding of how far Sharesight has come, co-founders Tony and Scott Ryburn were originally frustrated DIY investors trying to grapple with a spreadsheet that was getting more and more complicated.
"That’s when we decided to develop Sharesight, and seeing so much growth in our user base really shows that we are achieving what we set out to do, which is to solve the problem of accurately tracking your investment performance," says Scott, who is also Sharesight’s CTO.
Now that we’ve reached 150,000 users, let’s take a closer look at some of the numbers behind Sharesight.
