@mdausinger We use @NotionHQ, really happy with the flexibility for a small team. Here's how we use it convas.io/blog/project-m…. If we were to upgrade from notion (which we don't plan to anytime soon), we'd probably go for clubhouse.io.

I'm in the market for a new project + task management tool for Refiner.io. Any recommendations from fellow SaaS founders?
Here is what I'm looking for 👇
English
@FredrikAurdal @convas_io @airtable @convas @figmadesign @googleanalytics Hmm, good question. None that I can think of off the top of my head. Pretty happy with these ones. Do you have any favorite ones?

We use about 20 tools to run our SaaS business @convas_io (excl. dev tools). 12 of these we started using on a free plan, and we're still using them today:
@airtable: CRM
@convas: customer feedback management, our own tool🙂
@figmadesign: design
@googleanalytics: analytics
👇

For more details on what we use the tools for and the pricing, here's the full post

We really like testing and evaluating tools, but try not to spend a crazy amount of time evaluating which tools to use
I find Farnam Street's decision matrix helpful for framing these types of decisions fs.blog/2018/09/decisi…

@randfish I've heard this described as the monkey principle. Something along the lines - if you're going to train a monkey to recite Shakespeare standing on a stage, you better start by training the monkey (and not building the stage). People often start with the stage to show progress.

This is a great, short article conversion-rate-experts.com/rrr/ on how to prioritize projects.
It's got all the goods:
- Why most project management doesn't tackle risk
- Why most risk reduction is done backward
- A good story to make it memorable
- A template you can use in GG docs

@Vinrob These are the ones we use (pretty small overlap with yours) convas.io/blog/saas-tool…

SaaS people who offer card-less trials / free plans:
Do you create the Stripe customer & subscription at sign up, without a card? Or do you wait til they convert to paid? Pros / cons?
English
@drsim I think the main point is to just make sure you’re not limiting your ability to charge a large customer more. And make sure you have a lever to pull if a huge company comes knocking.
We also have unlimited users for the same reason as you.
English
@HelenaAhlstrom Great thread, thanks! I'm curious why selling unlimited something isn't a good idea?
My product has unlimited users on most tiers, given the UI is exactly the same for all team members. The value instead is the number of apps they can track.
