To ring in the new year, Tiki has achieved a significant milestone! Since its initial release in 2002, there have been more than 900,000 downloads of Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware from SourceForge.net.

Remarkably, this achievement was reached with little or no commercial support. Unlike other open source projects, Tiki is 100% community supported — there is no commercial entity in charge of Tiki.

Even More Installations
In addition to SourceForge.net, Tiki is available from many other other sources, making its true install base impossible to calculate. In September 2010, Tiki was added to the Windows Web App Gallery as part of the Microsoft Web Platform Installer. In four short months, Tiki has obtained over 10,000 installs. Tiki is also available as a one-click install from many popular control panel applications such as Fantastico, script managers such as SimpleScripts, and virtual appliances such as JumpBox.

Tiki Sheets (feuille de calcul de type wiki) a subi une amélioration spectaculaire depuis l'introduction dans Tiki Wiki Groupware CMS 1,9 en 2004. Tiki 6.1 (publié en Décembre 2010) a introduit un grand nombre d'améliorations à la fonction, y compris:

* Capacité d'utiliser pleinement la syntaxe wiki Tiki dans les feuilles
* fonctions mathématiques avancées
* Formatage complète des cellules et pages, y compris des graphiques
* Intégrer les données dans une feuille de calcul avec une page wiki (via un plugin)
* Examen / comparer l'historique des versions des feuilles
* Copiez et collez à partir de MS-Excel et OO-Calc
