http://upbase.io/ It's a project management tool for individuals and small teams. (Disclosure: I'm the founder)

I've used Teuxdeux for a while and encountered the same problem. I've tried so many productivity apps and ended up building my own PM tool.

Tweek/Teuxdeux works great as a minimal weekly planner. If you want a more feature-rich Monthly/Weekly/Daily planner, check out https://upbase.io/

I'm the founder of Upbase, and it was on Show HN just a few days ago.

I love upbase, but I’d say it’s bad form to go on somebody else’s announcement to promote your own product, despite the fact that they both fill very different roles.

Thoughts?

Upbase is a PM tool and not a direct competitor of Tweek, so I think giving people more choices is not so bad. Anyway, shame on me for this promotion.

IMO not bad form since it's useful for the average HN reader to have more choices. As a customer I want to see competition between vendors, that's always a good thing.

Let the votes decide!

I’m tossing out upvotes like Halloween candy tho

Thanks for your feedback. Upbase is a generic tool and people can use it in whatever way works best for them. I might need to create pages highlighting use cases of how to use Upbase for Product teams, marketing teams, etc.

Switching back and forth between multiple apps is not very efficient, and you might have a hard time managing all your information when stuff's all over the place.

You can check it out to see if it's a good fit.

Cheers,

I'm glad you like it. Let me know if have any feedback.

Hi nashashmi,

Appologize for the issues. Please send me a message via help@upbase.io.

The tools are pretty generic, so you can use them in whatever way works best for you. In the future, we'll publish some tutorials/use cases so you can better set up your workflow.

Yes, you can use sections for task statuses.

Hey everyone,

I'm thinking of introducing an Individual pricing plan (one user only) in which we strip away all team features. This would help bring much better user experiences since there was no unnecessary clutter or noise.

I'd like to hear your thoughts about it.

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.

Individual plan works great. Since these tools are in an infancy, the user culture has yet to catch on. Launch individual plan (no limits). Launch a friends feature with tracking/comments.

Launch teams feature under paid plan that has a management system built in, with a manager.

Btw, i bought a lifetime plan (sucker?) but it is not activating.
