Hubspot - saying this because one of the teams I work with is sold on what it supposed to do, and it sucks at doing those things.

Specifically the ads hub or whatever they call the section that is supposed to help with ads reporting.

I've already built 2 replacements for it.

They were so sold on the hubspot promise they dedicated a significant amount of time and money to try to make the thing do what they expected, and then consulted with 3 software dev companies to build out what was needed to make it work.

Once they saw the $30,000 price, months of custom dev work, plus what is the enterprise level thing now? $7k or $8k per month - and this is shimming.. they paused finally.

Funny thing is the new canvas in google sheets did 99% of what was wanted, did it in 30 minutes, and it's $30.

Build a replacement for looker studio, exact same issues.

Although Cody might have done that with Graphed - I have not jumped in to test it yet.

Presumably all of them, as this is the simple definition of “better.”

Ah, literate humanity, I’ll miss you in my dotage.

I don't know if this is actually an issue with Forma, but I hate how I have to use my corporate login (and thus corporate device) to be able to file expenses. But Forma is still better than we used before (I forgot their name but their UI was horrible).

I wish there was an alternative to Carbonite (unlimited storage, my encryption) that doesn't hide the VAT until the checkout so they don't trick on the pricing (for us Europeans)

I would definetly swap Slack for Discord. In a company i was working for we had discord and it was super fun with all that easy to embed memes. How much we got doen, is another story though
