"I wonder what it would be like to market JotForm to a web developer." It would be very hard. That's why we don't target them. PayPal went after eBay users first because they did not have any good way to send money. The

Your lack of support system theory would also explain why immigrates are usually more hard working and successful. They have no one to depend on so they have work hard or go hungry/deported. Lots of motivation there. Same for people w

One possible use case: Let's say you are building a new app and you don't know if it will be successful. At this point you are supposed to be working on the core. You are supposed to be talking with the users as soon as possible.

Any kind of app that can use or process the form data would be a good integration app. The most used ones are dropbox and google spreadsheets. For example, Dropbox integration sends the uploaded files and PDF of the form data to dropbox. He

All the time. We do continuous deployment. The secret is in the tests. Every time you break the site you add a new test to make sure it never happens again. As long as you run the tests on parallel you can add virtually unlimited number of

Additional ideas: - There are some showstoppers that apply to all products: Reliability, security, trust, ease of use, speed, customer support. - To find gamechangers you need to think outside the box. Most people accept things as they are.
