Hate to say it but, it's not very good. I can't imagine anyone using it. At first it sounded like it might be full blown project management like Basecamp, Jira, etc. But it's actually just really really basic To Do lists. Project/task management is such a crucial tool for a company/organization that there's just no way they are going to opt to run their business on this. All the Learn and Share stuff is a major distraction with little value. The user experience is very rough both aesthetically and functionally. The "no email required" callout is odd as that makes very little sense. There's just an overall lack of focus and quality.

My advice would be to pick a much narrower use case and really nailing it. Instead this looks like the lowest of lowest common denominators and I would advise anyone to stay away.

Edit: the videos seem to show a lot more stuff than what I was able to find. Perhaps because I wasn't able to update? (error message said I have to "PUT" to a URL). I didn't see where the Trello-style post-it board was.

Edit: It looks like you're trying to be Jira, Trello, Yammer, Dropbox, Slack? It looks like sort of a Winchester Mystery House of endless cranking on product features with no real rhyme or reason or cohesion for any of it. That is a clear recipe for failure.

Thank you for your brutally honest feedback, this is great stuff! We're trying to work out all the kinks before we launch.

Our goal is to provide an all in one solution that will bring teammates together in one place. Using 5 different tools/logins wastes time, money, and stalls productivity.

Your feedback tells us that our onboarding has quite a long way to go ;)

Thank you so much for taking the time.
