Even if those factors hadn't been in play, though, I don't think the decline in Coda revenue would have been as dramatic as we originally feared it might be.

We sold a couple hundred fewer units of Coda post-App Store removal, but revenue from it went up by about 44%.Now, two explanations for that: in addition to keeping the 30% that would have normally gone to Apple, we also returned Coda from its sale price ($79) to its regular price ($99) alongside the release of 2.5. And after analyzing data since then, Sasser says Coda's sales "have not suffered significantly" since then. Among them Sasser mentioned Coda 2.5's release, and Panic's decision to pull it from the Mac App Store. Panic co-founder Cabel Sasser recently posted a state of union address, of sorts, on the Panic blog, recounting the company's successes and challenges for 2014.
