RentTrack has been live for 5–6 years. It’s continually evolving as the marketplace is changing and we bring on new integrations and features. If anything, Forma-pro’s contribution has increased over the years. The team has grown on their side and will continue to grow.
We plan to use Forma Pro for the foreseeable future. I honestly don't see us ever-ending our relationship.
