Ask HN: Which SaaS apps have the best UI?

[karolisd]

I spend most of my time in a bubble of Google Analytics, Visual Website Optimizer, and Basecamp. But I'm building a side-project and I want to get some design inspiration from new & shiny apps that I might not have been exposed to. Which SaaS web apps that you use have the best user interfaces?

I really like Stripe (http://stripe.com) and have always been a fan of Campaign Monitor (http://campaignmonitor.com). We've been making lots of subtle design iterations to Mailgun (http://mailgun.com) recently too.

Also I'd recommend checking out LeanStack.io (http://leanstack.io) which has a great list of SaaS companies. You might find some inspiration there.

GitHub is usually pretty intuitive. Not a huge fan of their organizations layout though.

Basecamp probably has the best UI I've used for a SaaS project.

If you are looking for an Enterprise SaaS app -- you might want to check out Aha.io

We put a lot of thought into it and sourced the best design talent we could find. Originally, we were going to go with a totally flat design, but ended up with a hybrid approach. We found that a semi-flat design improved usability in our early tests with customers.

Stripe. Probably the only SaaS UI I don't hate in significant ways. It has a fairly minimal feature set though which helps.
