Two years ago Duda moved from an OKR management platform to using Google Spreadsheet for managing our company OKRs and the experience is so much better.
This year we are leaving the performance management platform that we have used for a few years and going to do our performance reviews using Google Forms.
Each of these changes was triggered by bad user experience of bloated platforms and due to these companies trying to force their processes on us and not providing the flexibility we needed. In each of these moves we have saved many tens of thousands of dollars per year and improved employee user experience .
I wonder how many SaaS companies that charge tens of thousands of dollars for their software can be simply replaced with Google Suite tools which means no extra cost for most startups.
I recently chatted with @itaisadan, co-founder & CEO @buildwithduda, about the founders' journey.
This interview is jam-packed with lessons, insights and inspiration for early-stage SaaS founders.
I have been reading the past week the amazing Vertical SaaS knowledge project that @davelyuan has created. This is a must read for anyone building a vertical SaaS company. Many profound insights that Iβm sure will have an influence on our going forward strategy at @buildwithduda
We've been (not so patiently) waiting to share what we have been hinting at for a little while now: the next chapter for our Vertical SaaS Knowledge Project.
Drum roll please... we are ready to launch!π
@buildwithduda commissioned a study of 420 web pros building websites to learn about their biggest pain points and opportunities as they navigate through this turbulent year. It's an interesting read for anyone in the business of building websites. https://t.co/8tnm07LF28
@itwig Ilan are you worried about AGI, do you think that folks are right in asking to stop for 6 months to give us time to understand the impact of AI and potentially put some safe guards in place?
The Eddie, one of the most famous big wave surfing competitions is live right now and the cool thing is that this is a @buildwithduda site: https://t.co/OG2qw6ILWc
@itwig I assume MSFT has right of first refusal and there is no price Google can offer that they wonβt match. Plus since they are an existing investor they have an implied discount.
