#12Looking forward to giving this a spin! I'm curious how deeply you went for an integrated approach for projects / email / tasks / files. I find the more integration you do, the more learning users must do vs. individual applications with loose integration that are more familiar to users (that behave like those in the title). I've spent a fair amount of time trying out both personal and business team workflow in Trello…
So all the advanced features are hidden behind a simple interface.
And an example of integration between the calendar and tasks: if one of your support consultants goes on vacations, the workflow managing support tasks automatically stops assigning tasks to him so that they don't pile up while he is away.

We still haven't decided on the pricing, but the main idea we have is $19/user/month, with some volume discounts. We want to offer top notch support, and we replace a number of apps plus add a lot of value on top of them through the integration and polish. So I think that our customers will see that the value is far higher than the $19/month.

Simplicity was one of our main goals when building Dynado. It has to be usable from day 1 not only by tech-savvy people but also by everyone else in the company.

Very interesting. Will we have a limited user/time free trial?!
Plus everyone will be able to cooperate with external contractors for free - you can add as many of them as you want and their accounts will be fully functional but with a few limitations.
For example instaed of sending an email to someone - you can send a task (the form is nearly the same), automatically creating a free account for that target user. This way you can keep track of the request and ping him if he forgets, store it in your project hierarchy, etc. And the recipient gets it through email and can reply only via email without even registering.

#16Shouldn't the "Show me some screenshots" key on the keyboard at the top ... do just that? If not, why's it there?
Yes it should, we didn't hook it up yet - I couldn't sleep and just had to share it. Sorry about that, will put up some soon and mention it on our Twitter/FB.
But otherwise this site looks great. Captured my email.

#18Also since you compare the service to gmail, could you tell us something about your anti spam solution? Gmail is pretty much a benchmark for results here, given the volume they process.
Considering it was created with such small team - really good work :)
PS. does that mean there's no operations team at the moment?

I would suggest making that call to action bigger. I did not notice the enlarged key on the keyboard until it was pointed out here on HN. I just thought it was the usual keyboard stock art. But otherwise this site looks great. Captured my email.
