Ask HN: Solutions for managing your startup?
I was wondering what is your current solution to manage your startup: documentation, project planning, bugs, budgeting, expense tracking, etc.
Are you guys using several solutions or is something custom made?
We are 3, all working remote and email is starting to get unmanageable.
I'm trying Podio but it seems a bit overkill.
37signals: it seems like I need to use several of them (but my needs would be covered: wiki, chat, project management, etc) and for my startup it's simply not possible to spend that much (it adds up really fast)
These are just some examples. Would love to hear what you have going on.
Cheers.
- smoyer 15y agoWe use Redmine (http://www.redmine.org http://www.redmine.org) for documentation, project planning and bugs. You can track time (as an expense) but you'll need something else for your accounting. I'd also recommend the "Backlogs" plug-in (http://www.redminebacklogs.net/ http://www.redminebacklogs.net/) if you're planning to run sprints. Tracking your time and stories is well worth the effort just to establish a realistic velocity.
