Yes. You are right. I didn't give that part enough credits because of the focus on smart pump in their PR and the poorly written article that agitated me more than it should. My bad, apologies. I think the problem there is that VCs are

This. Exactly. A breast pump at the cost of 4x the regular price, which is already expensive, that adds a thing you can easily do yourself and don't really need at that. If you would like the functionality there are a large number of (

Apart from discussing the content. Can I just express my absolute love for (longer) articles that start with a tl;dr? It gives an immediate answer to "do I need to read this?", and if so, what key arguments should I pay attention

Furthermore, it does not contain any information. Yup, (s)he's a manager alright ;). (J/k) Could you elaborate on how and why it has changed the way you do email and became indispensable?

Might want to add company size and team size(s). Many of these points show it is most likely for small to medium sized companies. For an enterprise the checklist does not entirely hold due to more specialized roles. Though there are some go
