   Goodbye Trello, Asana, Slack, Monday

   I’ve tried a plethora of PM tools and most of them were clunky, complicated, or lacked the proper features that our team needed. ClickUp was the latest headache we experienced.

• Freelancers and solo devs, how are you keeping track of your projects?

• I'm a dev ID 10 T please help me

• The Data Stack Journey: Lessons from Architecting Stacks at Heroku and Mattermost

  For Growth and larger, I would recommend Looker. The only reason I wouldn't recommend it for the smaller company stages is that the cost is much higher than alternatives such as Metabase. With Looker, you define your data model in LookML, which Looker then uses to provide a drag-and-drop interface for end-users that enables them to build their own visualizations without needing to write SQL.
