cool; just to expand - since hashed passwords are all the same length in a db, there's no benefit for max length requirements, and providing character limitations gives attackers a blueprint for brute force attacks since they now know what characters they don't need to try. When your requirements are too strict, this can make hashes orders of magnitude faster to reverse. my personal stance is: if they can type it, it…

The purpose of this is to prevent people from entering too simple passwords, like "theirname123". People still do it.

yeah, I find that it helps to have a password complexity gauge that shows the user their password is weak, but I still wouldn't stop them from using it ( except for minimum length )

With UX and performance jabs you take care of clickup too. God it sucks.

I haven't used ClickUp much myself, but I've heard good things about it. Why does it suck for you?

URLs sometimes work and sometimes don't. The UI is complex compared to the (old, on premise) Jira which is saying something - looking for tickets that you know are there is infuriating. The best way to copy the ticket text (once you do find it) is to copy it from the changelog and clean it up, or just take a screenshot... and so on. One of the worst UIs I have ever seen. Pretty? As a picture. Useful? Hell no.

Sorry for the rant, but I have pretty strong feelings about it. Moved to (online) Jira and while not perfect, it's much better than ClickUp.

Looks nice. do you have a mobile app?

No mobile app right now. (Too much todo already ). The site is responsive, however the mobile UX could be improved for sure.

Thanks for your work. Yes, the site is responsible, but a task widget is not something I'd easily give up on.

Hi, I couldn't find this in the feature list, does Upbase have the ability to add private comments / subtasks to tasks / other entities? That's something I really like in project management tools when I want to track my progress but not create noise for the rest of the team.

Thanks so much for your suggestions. And yes, you're right. Positioning is what we're trying to figure out at the moment. We'll consider your feedback very seriously. Thanks again for taking the time to give us some ideas. Cheers,

I work in B2B SaaS marketing as a PMM. I’d try something a little catchy’r on the home page. “Personalized project management for the entire team” Or something of that ilk

Nearly bought the lifetime license, but a calendar without Google calendar integration? How is this supposed to work? (not asking to be mean but perhaps I'm missing something)

Since we're still early days, the Google Calendar integration is still on our roadmap and not available yet. It's the most requested feature, so we will try to ship it as soon as we can.

As an update, bought the life time package and will check it out for my work.

Thanks for your valuable feedback and suggestions. I greatly appreciate it. The one thing I'm concerned about regarding the positioning of "a project management suite for solos and small teams" is that people will question: "If my team grows bigger, does the app still work well for us? Or we have to find another solution?"

I wonder if it's worth worrying about that. There's plenty of freelancers who have no ambition of growing beyond a small team that helps them with the side stuff. Those are the freelancers who don't want to become entrepreneurs. I think they're an interesting enough market to target, and maybe it's OK if those who have dreams of growth don't feel addressed here? Come to think of it, it may actually be flattering to s…

Agreed and maybe expand on this angle. For example, I struggle(time intensive) with the centralisation of resourcing and project/task assignment workflow. Find an available capable person, invite to org, assign to team/project, get working.

I scale through subcontractors so the ability to decentralize that workflow would be nice. E.g. suggestions of who would be best for this project in an internal or public marketplace of other solos.

Can you consider the improtance of also integrating with Color Coding too when you do these? You seriously don't want to see my calendar each week. (Or maybe you do for understanding this pain point).. but having a personal planning tool understand the colors of my calendar events would be an immediate killer for me. I've tested abotu 15 different tools, and in the end found that there wans't any personal tools avail…

Founder at Sunsama here. What would close the gap between "closest" and "perfect for you"?

Here's my calendar for the week.

Red = External (Very Likely, I need preparation + Notes). Blue = Internal Green = 121 Session etc. Black = Self-Blocked to Stop People trying to Add me to Calls

Basically, I have 40+ events a week. If I have to go through each one and self-organise when I already organise in my Gmail calendar via Color Coding, it would be huge barrier for me.

I ended up loving the interface, but the extra work I was creating for myself to "filter" and prioritise which activities needed Tasks was a deal breaker for me.
