Hi Camin,

The platform looks quite cool. I was looking at analytics, it works well. Adding the events is a bit strange (e.g. the default is 1 Event, and writing 1000000 is strange, maybe also add some pre-made ranges, like 3-5M events).

ALso, how to add new tools? Do you also support self-hosted tools? Would love to add my https://uxwizz.com to the product analytics category.

Thanks so much for trying it out, and for your feedback. You're right, that is a bit wonky - we should change the UX for inputs when the maximum of the range is massive, will get on that asap.

UXWizz looks great! Unfortunately we don't yet list self-hosted tools simply because our audience generally does not have the technical expertise to set these up. If that changes in the future (and I could see that happening) we'll definitely look into evaluating your platform for inclusion.

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

My goal is to make self-hosting as easy (or easier) than registering for a service. So my desired target audience includes non-technical people. Currently, yes, you need a bit of expertise to set it up, but it can still be done by non-technical people (e.g. using the DigitalOcean 1-Click app https://www.uxwizz.com/trial ).

I know I'm fighting an uphill battle, trying to go against the SaaS trend, but I do think self-hosting is the future.
