I've seen this and I really like it.
I think the UI is great, and love the overall direction of the product.
I know this will be hard to hear, but I want to provide my best feedback.
As a CTO, I will rarely, if ever, use a product like this that's not (at a minimum) open core.
I just can't risk building technical and business momentum around a startup that I don't know the longevity of.
I have no problem paying for software, it's business continuity that I'm concerned with.
For a great example of how to do this, I recommend checking out Mattermost. Also cal.com.
Those are two products I've selected for use in our tech stack.
Thank you for the feedback!
We are in it for the long haul and I would love to learn how we can make this more clear/explicit - what's the page/message/resource from cal.com, for example, which convinced you of this?
Sure, happy to help.
Right on cal.com homepage they call out that they are open source, and they have several places where they link off to their github account.
Thanks, this helps.
