That's why I mentioned "incoherent and probably useless other tools". Apparently, they launched some sort of no-code tool for stringing APIs together but still not ready with their GraphQL client.
For reference, another company that sells developer tools, JetBrains, has around 2000 employees.
- notimetorelax 4y agoMargins are still very high for a tech company, so the business can be sustainable even with high R&D costs. What’s happening is the end of a cycle where everyone pulled back on their spending and companies try to keep the same margins by managing their expenses as they cannot attract more revenue.
- cooperadymas 4y agoI can't tell where you're driving with the JetBrains comparison. Truthfully, I'm a little surprised they only have 2000 employees. They have a suite of IDEs supporting a multitude of languages, that are almost universally considered best in class. IDEs are not an easy thing to build. They developed and maintain the Kotlin language which has all but become the standard for Android dev. And they have integrated team collaboration tools that range from project management to CI to cloud dev environments.
- krooj 4y agoI am not surprised. Hire carefully with specific requirements in mind, stay hyper-focused on your product(s), and eschew corporate trends towards bloat, fomo, and "feel good" initiatives.
- bydlocoder 4y agoIsn't it obvious? Postman Labs is bloated and overvalued, compared to what JetBrains does their product is just nothing.
- philliphaydon 4y agoBut JetBrains has a whole suite of tools, supporting many plugins, creating their own jvm lang, with support team who actually respond and verify tickets. Atlassian on the other hand lol.
