#2The site isn't very informative.
How is this different from the many established and trusted alternatives out there?
What happens to my information if I put it on your servers?
Is there a phone app?
It says "Sign Up For Free" but we know there has to be a monetization strategy to stay in business. How much does (whatever is being sold) cost?
It's a crowded space and I see no obvious reason to put all of my data into this particular walled garden.

Some of the same exact questions that I had. It seems like an odd combination of features for one company to tackle. Building a secure password manager, for example, is non trivial and requires some serious security/crypto knowledge. Do I trust the same company to build a password manager as one who builds something to manage my bookmarks? Of course, the same engineers could be capable of both, but it seems like an unexpected combination.

#4Somehow I was hoping this was open source.

#5So...it is a wiki/knowledge base...hosted by others on your behalf? Er, that is, its a wiki/knowledgebase - hosted by others - with features added for some specific use-cases (e.g. encrypted text data like passwords, widgets to automate adding bookmarks, etc.)...?

Primary Differences from established alternatives:
1. Unique User Interface/Features
Examples:
- Intuitive keyboard shortcuts makes the tasks component in the projects module work almost like a free-text editor, making it super-fast but structured.
- Customizable labels that can be organized within folders, allowing the same document to effectively be in multiple folders through the labels. This provides the right dimensionality for quickly identifying the relevant resources. For instance, you can have 30 labels organized in 6 different high-level categories. You can use the specific label or high-level category for quick filtering based upon what you are interested in.
- RegEx Search. Surprisingly few applications have RegEx search + labels. These 2 can work great together for filtering purposes.
2. Single Platform and Uniform Interface across different resources
3. Free
Free because of low variable cost and efficient development.
There isn't a phone app but the web application is cross-device compatible.
Your passwords are encrypted using AES-256 with your Managify account's password as the key. The password tokens are then stored in the databases. We do not store enough information to be able to decrypt your passwords.

#7Clipping your screenshots to stock photos of Apple devices doesn't advertise your product, it advertises Apple's.
I've gotten reluctant to use any hosted services because so many of them have such short lifespans. Warehousing a bunch of data on someone else's platform, and coming to rely on it, only to have it disappear (or "pivot", or get acqui-hired and thrown away) a short time later isn't something I have any patience left for.

#8You have to understand that, nobody will ever use your password manager in it's current state. There's little to no reasons to trust it whatsoever. I do like the search features though.

#9Who are you? There's no information who runs this show but I'm supposed to trust you with my passwords, bookmarks, notes?

#10That name choice is rough. So easy to misread, so difficult to remember and spell.
