I work at Asana. There's no way we'll drop our free plan. It's too fundamental to our sales model. We are, however, thinking a lot more actively about what features to make premium. Largely new features we haven't released yet.
- dave2000 11y agoWe're definitely not getting rid of the free plan. Well, not until current management leaves, we do badly, get greedy, get bought out...
- tptacek 11y agoYeah, jerk! Answer for your unknowable future! "No way", indeed... the temerity, to suggest their product will be free after the heat death of the universe.
- JabavuAdams 11y agoYour response seems like an unnecessary escalation. I thought the post you're responding to was reasonable.
- Absentinsomniac 11y agoI'm pretty sure it's a joke.
- striking 11y agoJokes and other forms of amusement are banned on HN. It's been found that people here take things way too seriously, so the mods decided to ban jokes and humor outright. (Happy April 1st!)
- JabavuAdams 11y agoYou know, I've had my share of rants, etc. on HN but revisiting Reddit has made me appreciate the HN policies more. I generally avoid Reddit these days, except occasionally dipping into the VR sub-reddits. The level of stupidity, entitlement, and general melodrama is ludicrous. It's like when you're subjected to the nonsense of a person who's become accustomed to being the smartest person in a dumb room. HN is just a smarter room. Like Reddit 10 years ago. We should defend that.
- striking 11y agoRight. HN's lack of drama and brigading, and the fact that it's a small community, makes it a lot of fun. (I just lament a slight lack of light-heartedness!)
- nathancahill 11y ago> until current management leaves, we do badly, get greedy, get bought out I think that's the point of the question?
- prdonahue 11y agoThink he was making a joke (about how you never know what'll happen in future). Or at least I hope so.
- Snargorf 11y agoI believe you're being honest, but what about in two years? Four years? Six years? Anything can change in that time span, including your sales model. Not that this is a dig against you or Asana; it's just that this is how the world works.
- ececconi 11y agoI'd pay for Asana if I ever needed to manage a small team on a personal project or if I start my own company. There's just too much intertia for me to change the project management software at the clients I work with now as a consultant.
