Ask HN: What SaaS products do you use?
Hey HN!
I'd like to discover some new or maybe lesser known SaaS products or services.
What SaaS products do you or your organisation use?
- Why did you choose it? What is the main problem it solves?
- Where there any competitors at the time you had to choose? If so, what did they lack over your choice?
- What is your experience so far?
I am not working for any SaaS related company. I am just curious to see "what's out there" and what services are used for what purpose. Products/services which one does not think of immediately (e.g. uptime monitoring) but still help a lot.
For me, the best known or most important ones are e.g. GitHub, Trello, Slack, Google (e.g. Analytics), AWS, Pingdom. But I'm sure there are a lot more out there which could be helpful.
Thank you for your input and time in advance! :)

Google domain registration -- includes DNS & email forwarding, e.g. to my gmail account. uptimerobot.com -- monitoring, on free tier. boomerang for gmail -- set a time to return messages, I pay $5/month. I send follow-up/business emails and I set it to return to my inbox in X days if no response. Helps me ensure I don't drop the ball, and much easier than scheduling on a calendar. I tried streak's boomerang a bit, but boomerang lets you use natural-language to pick ANY time to come back, including changing the time zone. Phaxio -- fax as a service (in and out), pay per page. Great API, no monthly commitments/minimums (for outbound). I don't know of anything comparable.
