Fibery – Yet Another Collaboration Tool
- theamk 6y agoI can't figure out if this is an actual product, or a satirical website making fun of web startups.
- RyJones 6y agoYou can create an account, which shows a webpage.
- CharlesW 6y agoLast week's discussion, where the top comments were about how the site fails to effectively explain what the thing actually does. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26222313 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26222313
- ignoramous 6y agoAnd another from over a year ago https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21643683 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21643683 comments after comments of folks walking away from the landing pages con-mused.
- ripvanwinkle 6y agoThere's a button at the bottom right of the page that restores the "boring site" aka the serious one
- dflock 6y agoIf you go to https://fibery.io https://fibery.io you get a different take on this each time: - https://fibery.io/anxiety https://fibery.io/anxiety - https://fibery.io/connect https://fibery.io/connect - https://fibery.io/build https://fibery.io/build - https://fibery.io/freedom https://fibery.io/freedom
- CharlesW 6y agoFeedback for the creators: (1) Delete /anxiety ASAP. I suspect this was supposed to be humor, but it doesn't work. (2) Instead of ceding your first impression to chance, talk to people and figure out what messages/benefits resonate most with potential users. Feature those on your home page.
- smoldesu 6y agoI thought it was pretty funny, but I suppose humor is subjective like that.
- threeseed 6y agoIt is. But I actually thought the entire website was fake and left. And no offence but when I am handing over my money and company data I am not looking for humour.
- alentodorov 6y agoYet, it does get to HN frontpage almost every quarter...
- muratsu 6y agoIn my experience B2B services are more successful when they are more serious. While I find this website funny, it doesn't give me enough arsenal to sell it to my team/manager/company. The best SaaS products have clear value props and resonate with a problem you're currently having. Sure I'll share this with my teammates bc it's funny but we'll hardly take it seriously.
- DemocracyFTW 6y agoThe other day I complained on reddit about users deleting their own posts. It's really annoying. There was only one response, "You're overthinking it, man". Now it was me who was annoyed. Time to pass this one on, I guess: You're overthinking it man. There.
- mikewarot 6y agoIf you watch the movie "The Game"... and stick with it until the end.... this is similar.... wtf? Is this a spoof, or what?
- mikewarot 6y agoOk, so downvote away, but at least answer the question... what is this thing?
- taucharts 6y agoIn 2 words.. Fibery is a no-code platform to create information infrastructure for an organization. Due to no-code flexibility the tool is process agnostic and can replace several specific tools and reduce costs.
- CharlesW 6y ago> Fibery is a no-code platform to create information infrastructure for an organization. Somewhere in the bowels of the site they say that Fibery is a Notion alternative. In that case, they should crib the far-superior and jargon-free way that Notion talks about themselves and the value of their product.
- jph 6y agoFibery shows a quantum entanglement Feynman diagram to explain how it works-- the whole site is brilliantly hilarious.
- stochastimus 6y agoKudos - I won’t remember a lot of the new products I’ve seen websites for, but I’ll remember this one! :)
