Wow, this is so much better than Trello. You implement exactly what's missing: a "planning" view (Trello's card view sucks so much) and task tracking. Congratulations. However, in order to jump there I'd need an import/export feature. Import because I can't manually add the hundreds of cards and comments I have in Trello. Export because, well, you're a startup and I want to know that if you shut down in the future at…

That is a good point! We have import from Trello, but no exports yet. I will add that to our product backlog. We will add more extensive keyboard support in a future update.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

React is going to be our next framework ply

Serious question, why would you change?

AngularJS is great but not without flaws. (cough..watchers) We are either going to jump to Angular 2/4 or React

The signup experience was great! I liked the walkthrough. I'd recommend focusing a bit more on front-end performance though. Dragging cards, for example, was a quite sluggish. Especially compared to Trello. Since that's the thing that we do the most on a storyboard, it makes me want to use your product a bit less. You're also pushing >3MB of JS to the client. Consider trimming that down a bit.

Thanks! Thats great advice and I absolutely agree with you. We have some plans in action for both the size and the performance of the app.

It's quite lovely but I personally can't stand the domain. First impression: people are launching new Perl projects in 2017? I know that's goofy and utterly subjective, but it was still my initial thought.

Hehe for what it's worth as a Perl developer, I read that as ".ProjectManagement" but I can see your point. At ZipRecruiter we're launching stuff all the time. Builtinperl.com lists some more people chugging on quietly with Perl :). As for the submission itself, it looks pretty good though I'm having a few navigation difficulties on my phone. My mom has been looking for a one stop todo/task/chat/trello solution so it…

That was the association we were looking for :) As people that have nothing to do with perl .pm for us is short from "project management" and also we like how short our domain is.

On your pricing page it mentions 'basic' add-ons and integrations and 'advanced' add-ons and integrations. What are these? I cannot find any other reference to these on your site.

Some future advanced features will be available only to the paid plans. Right now everything is available to everyone. Main restriction in place is the number of allowed users on a free project. (3)

This looks really cool. Great job. One tiny bit of UX feedback... on the pricing page the slider and what the slider changes are too far apart. It took me a while of sliding to figure out it was changing the user count. At first glance it looked like it was changing price (and why would I want to slide price up!) Also, I'm confused why that one guy is standing off to the right in the homepage graphic. Is that suppose…

Yes, that's you :) Enjoying the life (coffee) while your team is super optimized because they use Ora

I'm genuinely astounded how good this is, simply brilliant. That said UX/UI niggles http://i.imgur.com/xkjYGf1.png the contrast on the hover elements is far too low, if you have vision issues (or simply a poor screen) they'd be very hard to see. Otherwise kudos, this is one of the best in-browser apps I've seen in a while!.

That's a good point. Thanks!

I noticed a few typos here and there (submitted corrections using Send Feedback) but overall, I like it. There've been a few services I've tried to use that blended different styles (To Do, Kanban etc) but I found most of them a bit lacking. I guess it's one of those things where I kind of would want everything including the kitchen sink (or in this case, time tracking, Github integration and so on. Anyway, I look fo…

Someone send really long email with typos from a "private" email was that you? If so thank you! I think we fixed all typos.
