Mine is a side business: https://panelbear.com/ https://panelbear.com/
I started building it for myself at first, scratching my own itch.
I don’t feel the same pressure as I had with my open source projects. I’ve been adding features when I feel the need for my own use (i.e. alerting system), or customers made a good point for why it’d be useful.
Also, I don’t work on stuff that nobody requested yet. For example, you can’t even change your account email yet.
So far it’s been fun working on it, and slowly getting paying customers. But it might take 1-2 years for it to replace my day job income-wise. That’s fine, it’s just about having the right expectations, and keeping up a sustainable pace.
- jrib 6y agoI like the project. Gl! Reading through, change "loose' to "lose" in: > you won't loose data as soon as you reach the limit.
- amzans 6y agoThanks for the input!
- t_swapnil 6y agoBeen a user of Panelbear. Good product and simple alternative to Google analytics.
- amzans 6y agoThat's great to hear! Thanks for the nice words. In case it's useful, I'm slowly releasing the next set of features related to Performance Monitoring, including alerts and integrations (e.g. Slack). The reason being: it'd be great to get notified when something seems off vs having to check the dashboards all the time.
- t_swapnil 6y agoYes that would definitely be good to add. Thank you !
