That's a really slick UI. Your presentation of data is really good. there are lots of features you could add to this to make it even more useful, but I really like the ability you give now.

Is your retention period limited to three months or is that just the amount of data you have on hand ?

Also configuration seems to be a bit lacking, is there a way I can change the graphs I have on the screen or select different metrics ( for example I want things like Swap or CPU Wait time ) , and I don't see a way to ad din my own devices. Are those just limits of me only looking at the demo or is that work pending ?

Either way great job looks really slick.

Congratulations to the team for a beautiful product and a very beautiful site! I look forward to see more support of other platforms and frameworks (I use Django/Python).

I have to think about it a bit more deeply to make a thoughtful comment regarding the product. However, I did catch a few little things that you can fix:

1) http://www.graphdat.com/pricing, "Don’t need history, than it's all free." should be "Don’t need history, then it's all free."

2) I appreciate your tag line: "Remember all servers get all features, always." but I think punctuation would really make it sticks: "Remember: all servers get all features--always!" I'm not sure, but I love it it and I want this to be even more impactful.

3) https://dashboard.graphdat.com/landing page, other than signup/login perhaps a "learn more" button/link? I am a paranoid guy, especially when it comes to installing stuff on my server, so I would want to learn more about the product before even hitting the signup button.

As a developer, I love the product and your presentation. http://www.graphdat.com/images/img1.png should be replaced with new screenshots from the current look. What graphing tool are you using? Definitely love to learn more about you guys. Perhaps a developer's blog?

Again, congratulations on a great job well done so far and looking forward to seeing and learning more about you guys.

-V.

Very slick landing page. I've not seen that done before (am I clueless?) but I love the text overlay -- much better than a "click here to watch a video intro!" The point is: I watched, and I was engaged.

I'm on an iPad so I'm not sure of the whole experience but one thing that came to mind, especially given the "faded" UI is that clicking outside the presentation should allow the user to shortcut to the end and jump right in, maybe with a message along the lines of "ok, jump right in...to continue to intro, just click here"

Can you share a bit about how the text overlay/intro was made? Might be a cool project in and of itself...
