Pretty cool stuff, i know ive asked for some of these features as my team uses asana for as much as we can and jira was super slow and clunky back in the day - though i checked it out recently and it seems like a much better experience.
In the tool the modals could really use a X button to close the modal, the 2 or 3 seconds i second guessed where to click each time was annoying. It would be cool to discover if asana had some of these features all of a sudden but i think putting so many features front and center is going to hurt your adoption. Slack for instances can be easily underused as simply a chat application, later on the tech guy shows up and starts dropping in chat bots and cool helpers and what not. The relationship stuff is pretty cool i hope i dig more into this stuff later.
Also are you guys planning on expanding the signup options beyond google/microsoft? it was easy for me to signup just curious how much of a roadblock that is to the rest of the internet.
I love the uncluttered ui for the site you work for https://sumup.com/ sticks the message to the potential customer instead of shoving lots of blog/jobs/other links all over the place as in the top menu.
I notice at my job there were a lot of i need feature x to which we commonly replied i would like to build x but the horrible old y system is stopping me or we would just make things much worse to try and meld feature x into legacy/messy y system. I was a dev dealing with the legacy systems at my company for years and then i took over management and said we need to remove or clean up these legacy weak points so we can build features faster and more maintainable, so yes we started at the first day of this year cleaning up from the worst / weakest links first on. In 6 months we are done using 2 new hires to complete new work while 2 senior devs did clean up. 6 months compared to years of spinning tires was well worth it. Eventually the CEO gets sick of hearing excuses of why we cant build this or that or are wasting 50% of our time fixing bugs. Productivity is soaring now for multiple reasons at my company, testing, documentation, removing old systems and even though we have a small team every senior dev is leading a junior dev. Side note this is the first time we have hired junior developers at this company and its been a big pay off giving a lot more free time to the senior guys to work on the most important things.
I think the ridiculous thing is every mom and pop site and blog and website needs to be gdpr compliant? insane. If the true intent was to make sure large players have their system in check then they should have simply said if you have 50,000 or more users giving you data a month or something to protect anyone interested in software from being afraid of having 2 users because now they need to read every international law. I know someone will fire back at this but what stop the United States from coming up with some law as well on the internet against how logins should be and then filing a lawsuit against every other country company that doesn’t comply. A business should follow the laws of based on the owners location and if other countries don’t like it then that’s for allies to group up and ask that minority country for change. gdpr to me is of reaching on the internet in a scary way.
