“We were about to sign up for Canny at £180/mo. Switched to BoardSimple in an afternoon and our users can't tell the difference — but our finance guy can.”
“Flat pricing is the whole pitch. I stopped worrying about which teammate to give admin access to. Everyone's an admin. Bill is still £25.”
“Set it up on a Sunday, shipped our first public changelog on Monday. It looks like something Linear would build. That's the bar.”
