Incompatible was a bad choice of words. What I meant was, it's random parts from a junk yard masquerading as a novel technical solution to a business problem, when in fact it's a CRUD app wrapping an existing product in a way other solutions already can, yet requires more maintenance, and has no additional powers of integration to make its adoption worthwhile. Basically you could implement the same thing yourself in a week using low-code or no-code tools, and not be beholden to a tiny company's pet project to make it do what you need. The end result will be non-trivial to support and not provide a meaningful benefit over existing supported / hosted solutions.
- dewey 4y ago> tiny company’s pet project It’s a stock market listed billion dollar company with 2000 employees. I would not call that tiny.
- throwawaaarrgh 4y agoTheir valuation is a joke. Their software dev teams are tiny and opinionated. They keep losing money despite gaining revenue and losses are mounting. They're more of a professional services company at this point, without a product worth paying for. Best case, they'll be bought by VMware, RedHat or someone else, and gutted for the IP.
