Sendy PRO User Survey
Last February, Sendy surveyed PRO users who are the paid subscribers.
Sendy, which grew rapidly by 88% users in 2020, is trying to listen to its PRO users and develop what they are using Sendy for, what kind of characteristics they have, satisfaction with Sendy they feel, and what needs to grow in the future.
A total of 114 PRO users responded, and through their responses, we will introduce you to the characteristics of Sendy PRO users and what they talked about Sendy.
About Sendy

Since the Covid-19 crisis in 2020, online non-face-to-face work rates have risen rapidly around the world.
