What people liked

  • Polished, attractive design

    • It looks very polished, congrats! Is there ever going to be an on-premise / self-hosted version (e.g. https://www.taskfort.com)? /shameless plug

    • A way better looking clone.

    • The product is very neat. I already love it so much. It has more features than Trello and a lot less heavy than Asana. Will try to have the team to switch to Taskulu.

  • No features page or clear explanation before signup

    From 2 comments

    • I'm not sure how this should be used, pre-filled example project would definitely get my attention before thinking 'meh' and closing the tab.

  • GitHub issue board integration

    • Man, if someone builds something like this with github issue board support, I'm won over. Currently I use zenhub but it annoys me that it's so simplistic (e.g. dragging something…
