Many people here will hate on your charging money up front. I think it's fine. I won't use it and so you will miss out on users like me who want to try it out, but if we don't want to pay upfront for it then maybe we're not your target audience. Looks interesting, sad I can't try it out!
I hear you. I'll have to consider some kind of demo/free tier since several people have had similar feedback. I'm a bit hesitant to create tiers by arbitrarily turning off features, since people tend to not like that either. Or do you think that would be ok? Just to be clear though, you don't have to pay up front or enter any payment information for the trial period.
I registered and here is my feedback after using it for 10 minutes:
- I find the interface awkward to use on a laptop(windows 10), scrolling on the touchpad zooms and the touchscreen does nothing, probably best with a mouse.
- Bulk operations actually make you go thought the items one by one. I would prefer it to be able to select a few items and set the same value for all of them(and delete or add dependency).
There is a lot of missing functionality that I expect from a paid app: markdown, checklists, attachments in the description, exports(both as an image and xls/doc with descriptions), real time collaboration, customization(modify status workflow, add custom fields), api/webhooks.
Thanks for trying it out and for the really useful feedback.
I'll look to make improvements in some of the areas you mentioned. Right now at least, I'm just targeting individual users who don't require collaboration. I realize that many users have requirements that go beyond that, but I'm going to focus on handling the simplest use cases well to start.
This app looks great. This is an idea I've wanted to either create, or see someone else create, so nice to see it here.
Believing that users should be free to access their data, I hope it has an export function to a common format. Maybe something that can be imported to graphviz.
Of course that means they could move it to a competitor, but for $6/month for such a useful app I doubt that'll be a problem!
Thanks! Appreciate the feedback. I had overlooked the export functionality, so thanks for mentioning it. Definitely agree that users should be free to access their data - I'll look to add that shortly.
