I would love that.

This tool looks like the perfect productivity tool for me - as a staff engineer with accountability for the deliverables of 2 teams (might become 3 soon).

As I can no longer simply track my work in a team's JIRA board, I need some way to keep track of what I'm planning to do, what's in progress, and what's done -- and separately for each team; also including journal entries so I can log research I've done or conversations I've had. The Pomodoro timer and other personal productivity features just make it all the more attractive - a perfect fit.

Upbase looks perfect for this -- minus the team features.




Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

On this Individual plan, should we allow team features to be turned on and new members to be invited afterward?


I think that could likely be helpful for some people, but probably not in my case. I don't expect anyone else to be working alongside me.

But I imagine a solo founder wanting to start on a low-cost individual plan, and expects to eventually add new members when he/she gets a co-founder and/or more team members.

In any case, people like the feeling of there being an easy "on-ramp" to what they imagine they'll do in the future. GitHub in particular has achieved mastery of easy on-ramps to more (paid) features.

I'd be curious to find out how many Trello boards start out with 1 person and others join weeks or months later.
