  • Chattanooga, TN-GA (1888PressRelease) September 20, 2012 - To commemorate this landmark, the company is presenting an infographic in which they recall the most important and influential software launched since their foundation back in 1997. This list includes several names that have marked the evolution of software as we know it during the past fifteen years; from Winamp to Windows 8 or Napster to Palm OS.

    Softonic's editorial team also wanted to share their vision of what the future holds. They do this by explaining six trends that will probably influence the way we will use software, interact with our mobile devices or consume apps during the upcoming years.

    The company was created in 1997 by Tomás Diago, the current President & Founder as his final university project. During this time, Softonic has evolved from a download site with around 1,000 Windows software titles available, to a large multiplatform catalogue that offers more than 160,000 programs in 10 different languages.

    The infographic is now available at http://en.softonic.com/15-years-enjoying-software
