7 points by DhruvKumarJha on May 17, 2013 | hide | past | favorite | 5 comments
Hi guys,

I have uploaded the application i was/am working on http://www.freelancerhq.com/

check out its at http://app.freelancerhq.com/

You can login as Admin, client or staff (select it from the dropdown) and password is already entered.

Let me know what you guys think.




This seems like it does just about everything under the sun (Basecamp, helpdesk, invoices etc. all in one app?)

That could be very handy of course, but it's a lot for someone to make the change to. I think rather than doing more and more, you need find a way to make one or two features totally compelling.

One general thing I would say is that in all your tables of links (e.g. Dashboard > Messages, Accounting > Invoices etc.), then clicking anywhere in the row should load that item (And feel free to lightly highlight the whole row on hover).

Just makes it easier to click around fast, because the app as a whole seems to load very quickly. Well impressed with that aspect. :)


Yes that's a great suggestion, I will make the changes asap.

Which one or two features do you think i should make totally compelling?


This is something an agency might use more than a freelancer. The app seems adequate, though the fonts are a bit hard to read. Its OK, but I cant say that its better than anything else Ive tried. Not a bad thing in itself, but I dont see myself using it. I use trello for this sort of thing.


It can be easily customized to suit your needs., The features are there but its upto the freelancer/agency to use the features they want to use.

Anyways this is Version 1, Hopefully Version 2 will change your mind.


There is something off about the pricing. If you target at freelancers you should offer something that they can start small and grown within your web application. More clients will mean that they have more cashflow which means they will invest in the app that already as their information.
