Idea type: Strong Contender

The market has shown clear demand for this type of solution. Your challenge now is to create a version that stands out while delivering what people already want.

Should You Build It?

Build but think about differentiation.

Your are here

Dokably enters a market category we call "Strong Contender", where a clear demand already exists for unified workspace solutions blending documents, tasks, notes, and whiteboards, especially for remote teams. With 4 similar products already analyzed, competition is present, but not overwhelming. Your challenge, therefore, is to carve out a distinct position for Dokably by providing exceptional value in a way that differentiates you from established players. The high engagement (average of 64 comments on similar products) suggests users are actively seeking and discussing these types of tools. Your focus should be on understanding the existing solutions and building a better, more tailored experience. The fact that there is a strong buy signal means that people are looking to pay for this kind of product, which you can capitalize on. To succeed you must differentiate yourself.

Recommendations

  1. Begin by deeply analyzing the most successful competitors in the unified workspace arena, like Notion, Miro, and ClickUp, as identified in the user discussions from similar product launches. Pay close attention to their feature sets, pricing models, and user feedback to understand what resonates most with users. For example, several users of Dokably's competitors explicitly mentioned the desire for more integrations, so that could be a starting point.
  2. Based on your competitive analysis, pinpoint 2-3 key areas where Dokably can outperform existing solutions. This could involve offering a more intuitive user interface, providing deeper integrations with specific tools (like Figma, as requested by users), or catering to a niche market segment within remote teams (e.g., design teams, marketing agencies). Focus on building a product that solves specific pain points better than the competition.
  3. Resist the urge to build a comprehensive suite of features from the outset. Instead, prioritize the core functionalities that deliver the most value to your target users. Focus on perfecting these features and ensuring a seamless user experience. A simple MVP will allow you to iterate faster and get feedback quicker.
  4. Implement a paid pricing model from day one to validate actual user demand and willingness to pay. This will provide valuable insights into your product's perceived value and help you refine your pricing strategy. Consider offering a free trial or freemium version with limited features to attract a wider audience.
  5. Prioritize delivering exceptional customer service and support to your first 50 customers. These early adopters will be crucial in shaping your product's development and driving word-of-mouth referrals. Gather their feedback actively and use it to iterate on your product and improve their experience.
  6. Address the user concerns about differentiation. Clearly articulate Dokably's unique value proposition and how it addresses the shortcomings of existing solutions. Highlight the specific features and benefits that set Dokably apart from the competition, such as a simpler UI, smoother embed capabilities, or specialized whiteboard features.
  7. Address the broken links and signup issues reported by users of similar products. Ensure a smooth and seamless user onboarding experience to minimize frustration and maximize user retention. Pay close attention to technical details and address any bugs or glitches promptly.
  8. Clarify how Dokably streamlines embedding links from other tools. Provide clear and concise instructions on how to use this feature effectively. Make it easy for users to integrate Dokably with their existing workflows and tools.
  9. Actively solicit feedback from users on their pricing expectations. Gather data on their willingness to pay for different features and functionalities. Use this information to refine your pricing model and ensure that it is fair and sustainable.

Questions

  1. Given that users of similar products often compare them to Notion, how can Dokably carve out a unique identity and value proposition that goes beyond being 'another Notion alternative'?
  2. Considering the requests for specific integrations like Figma, how will Dokably prioritize integrations to best serve its target users and differentiate itself from competitors?
  3. Knowing that users appreciate simple UIs, how will Dokably maintain its focus on simplicity as it adds more features and functionalities over time?

Dokably - One workspace for your work docs, tasks, and whiteboards

03 May 2023 Notes Productivity Task Management

Stop switching between numerous tools. With Dokably, do all your work in one place. And be as creative as you want! Blend docs, whiteboards, notes, and tasks how you need it. Simplify your workflow and stay focused on your project like a pro!

Dokably's Product Hunt launch received overwhelmingly positive feedback, with users congratulating the team and expressing excitement about its potential as an all-in-one workspace solution. Many users inquired about Dokably's differentiation from competitors like Notion, Miro, ClickUp, and Evernote, while praising its simple UI, smooth embed capabilities, and whiteboard features. Users reported bugs and requested specific integrations (e.g., Figma). Several comments highlighted its potential for productivity and organization, particularly for teams, bloggers, and creators, while others focused on ease of use.

Users question the product's differentiation from established tools like Notion, Google Docs, Office365, and Confluence. The comparison to Notion is frequent. A broken link on the product page was reported. Some users experienced signup issues. Clarity is needed on how the product streamlines embedding links from other tools. Fair future pricing is contingent on the ability to share read-only links.

Congratulation on your launch Dokably! 🎉🎉🎉Loving what I’m seeing and excited to test it!

maxtpham

Congrats on launching Dokably! This comprehensive workspace is an excellent answer to the issue of utilizing various tools. It's remarkable to observe emphasis on both efficiency and pleasure. 1 amusing query :)), how do you rival GDocs, Office365, Confluence, or Notion, GDocs..? Excited to try it out, and best of luck to you and the team! PS. love the intro video from Founder :))

dipika_gohil

The embedding and creation of the Whiteboard were great. Congratulations on the launch. I will surely explore the product.

maksim_mamchur

Congratulations on the launch of Dokably! As someone who's constantly juggling multiple apps for work, I'm excited to see an all-in-one solution that aims to declutter and streamline the workspace. It's quite impressive that you've managed to integrate so many features into one platform, and I'm particularly intrigued by the visual smart editor. It's great to see that you're putting an emphasis not just on productivity, but also on the joy and fun in working environments. I'll definitely be giving Dokably a try and look forward to seeing how it can improve my workflow. Best of luck on this journey, and I hope it helps many others like you who seek a more seamless and enjoyable work experience!

maxterbov

What a cool service! Finally everything important in one place and always at your fingertips. I wish the team success and rapid growth

brady_lewis1

Congrats on the launch. This tool looks super helpful. I know I hate having to switch apps a million times a day!

gaurav_mandal

Congratulations on your launch. @aleksandra_dikan will start using Dokably . Much needed tool .

xenya

Onboarding now! Love minimalistic design that doesnt distract from my actual task at work. Very user friendly interface. Congratulations on the launch and looking forward on all additional features coming up this year!

ov3rmnl

That's just amazing master-tools for teams! It's light-weight and in the same time easy-to-use (unlike Notion, sometimes you spend insane amount of time to find most suitable template for your idea and to adapt it). Congratz with launch and w8ting for more integrations :)

yenire_leal

Congratulations on the launch. I believe it can be a great tool for work. I will definitely try it out.

saaswarrior

Congrats on the launch, this is really looking awesome. We don't need to use multiple tools now 😍

superminnu

Just signed up to Dokably. My friend suggested me this. I'm excited to try it out, as the demo video by Sasha from your team made it easy and showed all the features!

gleb_nova

It looks like something I will use. I will definitely test it👌🏻

adriangward

I really like this idea and the interface seems really smooth and intuitive. I'll be giving this a proper go with a couple of projects over the coming months and I'll come back with more feedback :=

anna_0x

Judging by the demo video, it looks AMAZINGLY useful! Ok, visually it's super similar to Notion, but the addition of whiteboards and how easy it is to switch between doc & whiteboard would make this very useful for planning features and brainstorming. Since it’s free until 2024 I’m definitely giving it a go. As for the future pricing of 6$/user/month, I’d say it’s fair, as long as it’s possible to share read-only links to non-users too :)

megan_costello

I just started using Dokably and agree that it is a clean UI. The embed capabilities to other tools are smooth and I can see how they'd be really useful. However, I found myself having to navigate to each of the other tools (e.g. loom) to find the link and copy and paste it into the embed field. I'm curious if there are plans for a more streamlined way to do this? (Some sort of deeper integration, for example?)

Frame - Work 10x faster in teams

27 Sep 2023 Notes Productivity Task Management

Frame is a unified suite of productivity apps built for teams. It's fast, minimalist, and collaborative. Everything you need to operate as a team is together in one unified hub, so you can focus on getting stuff done.

The general sentiment surrounding the Product Hunt launch is overwhelmingly positive, with many users congratulating the team and expressing excitement about Frame. Users repeatedly praised the app's minimalist and clean design, intuitive UX/UI, and its potential to streamline teamwork, boost productivity, and eliminate app switching. The 'all-in-one' concept, combining features of multiple productivity tools, was also a recurring highlight. Many comments predict Frame will be a game-changer. Several comments refer to Nicolas and the team, and some specifically praised the landing page.

Users expressed interest in the Mac app launch date and early adopter reception. Several criticisms focused on usability: the mission statement's incomplete display and the lack of clickable bento cards. Users requested Figma integration and voiced frustration with using disparate software. The claim of being '10x faster' needs clarification regarding what it's being compared to.

rs_mmambo

This product designed to enhance teamwork is truly a game-changer. Its seamless integration of collaborative features streamlines communication, fosters creativity, and boosts productivity within the team. With its user-friendly interface and robust set of tools, it empowers team members to work together efficiently, share ideas effortlessly, and achieve their goals with a sense of unity and purpose. It's an invaluable asset for any organization seeking to elevate their teamwork to new heights and achieve remarkable results.

darya_bernadskaya

The product idea is great! Minimalistic design, high speed, everything I like. This product is a great tool for teamwork!

piotr_smolen

I love the solution and the philosophy. What I'd love to see as the next steps: a) deep integrations with the functional stack (Jira, CRMs, HR systems, etc.) so that I can use functional data and objects in the productivity tools. b) deep integration with other productivity tools we use (Slack, etc.) + some unified search and AI-backed insights based on the holistic view of my company data. Congrats!

macgridcupcake

Congratulations on the launch! I love this product as it solves two main issues with our previous product stack: too many products and too much bloat in each product. Frame allows us to centralize our product stack (while still connecting to required additional products) so we're not constantly jumping around. Additionally, the minimalist designs makes it easy for everyone to understand and use the suite of products immediately. Thanks so much for building a great product. Looking forward to future updates!

maria_volotova

Guys! Your app is amazing, really. I use something about 6-7 apps every day at work, and I guess with your app I can replace all of them…with just Frame? This is really crazy! Tell me please, what new feathers you will have in the nearest feature?

nayan_kulshreshtha

Congrats on the launch team! For me it's doing the work of apple notes, freeform and notion on just one tool! When are you guys launching the Mac App ? :D

idish

Sounds an amazing product. I'll be definitely trying this out as I hate the context switching between apps while working, this must be a tool that will help me work more effectively.

esus

"fast, minimalist, and collaborative" hooked straight from the start lol. Congrats on your launch! Since you mentioned feedback in the launch notes, some initial thoughts: - Landing looks amazing. I scrolled a bit and I think I get the concept. - Our Mission Statement - "be focused" is not entered on my computer heh, unsure if intentional :) - In the green section of "Frame is the next gen of doing → done", I'd LOVE to be able to click into the bento cards (e.g. I am most likely to buy for contact management, and want to drill into that card to learn more.) - Very personal preference, but it would feel on brand for the "get started" copy to instead say like "Let's focus" as a CTA or something lol. Huge congrats again on your launch! Would love to hear how big your team is? Good luck!

johuder33

Loved the product for the first time I saw it, it's minimalist and very clean without much distraction around, I cannot wait to see what comes next at Frame.

fawadahmedm

I've been looking forward to this launch for so long. Very excited to use Frame and haven't been this excited about a product since Figma/Canva or ChatGPT. Congrats on the launch!

marcel_doeppes

This is amazing, exactly what I was looking for! Always hated to toggle between tabs and apps, eventually keeping track of my to do's with pen and paper 🫠 Looking forward to giving it a test run.

maksim_mamchur

Congratulations on the launch! It genuinely feels like a game-changer! I've always longed for a more integrated work experience, and it seems Frame is serving exactly that on a silver platter. The vision of redefining work while maintaining a sleek interface is absolutely compelling. This might just be the tool that rescues us all from the chaos of endless tabs and fragmented tools🙌

kunal_sawant2

Product is super minimal and fast! I hate working on different and disparate software’s all the time. Love that Frame is the modern hub connecting everything together

gusoliveira_

Whoa, Frame looks awesome for team productivity! I love the idea of having a unified hub for all team operations. What specific productivity apps are included in Frame or can be integrated? Congratulations on the launch @nicolas_baranowski and @mx2s !

austin_khong

Bringing collaborative apps into a single operating workspace is brilliant! Frame is definitely solving a huge pain in streamlining work. I love the idea of all-in-one and how Frame makes it really easy to stay on top of workflows and processes. It is really cool having a touch of AI to automate the organisational work as well. I'm excited for what's next for Frame!! Congrats on the launch!

tomorbach

Sweet! Can't wait to try it with my team. Seems like Notion ate Monday and became a monster (in a good way ;) )

Awesome launch! I can't wait to try it out as I've been struggling with my toolstack. Most excited with the AI to save a ton of manual work

tobi_rydlewicz

This looks really cool and helpful. I love the blend of having your own essential apps (notes, whiteboard, project tracker etc.) as well as shortcuts to access the specialzied ones like JIRA and AirTable as it is harder to move away from them! It would be awesome if you could add Figma in there as well. Good luck on your launch, nicely done!

antoine_espinet2

Congrats on the launch! Finally something I can start using day 1 without feeling super overwhelmed. Cant wait for more apps!

new_user__27020230496d2127375c80e

Congratulations on the successful launch of the platform! You have managed to make Frame functional and user-friendly at the same time. As someone who is not a programming expert, this is particularly delightful for me as I can start working on the platform without any special skills. Moreover, it is not just a tool for work, but also an excellent platform for collaboration and exchanging ideas with colleagues. I appreciate the pleasant and unobtrusive interface that makes working on projects comfortable. I hope that other users will also appreciate the work done on the project and the platform itself!

sofia_matos

Congratulations on the app launch! It’s user-friendly, efficient, and a real time saver! Can’t wait to see your new apps and the new 'superpowers' you’ll bring to us! 🚀

@nicolas_baranowski1 the Brain behind Frame truly deserves an appretiation for Launching such a innovative and successful Product with his Team at Product Hunt. I must say Great work! Keep it up guys". Frame's vision of a unified way of working is what every team needs. In the crowded world of productivity tools its breath of fresh air. The AI features, like automatic labeling and text summarization, are incredibly helpful. It's like having a virtual assistant. I can't wait to see how Frame evolves and integrates with more popular apps.

darya_solod

Wow! It's a great idea to make a unified app to synchronize the work of many people! Nice to see Frame, I'm sure you will growth! Congrats!

Harmonized - Seamlessly Organize, Create, and Collaborate.

Harmonized is receiving positive feedback as a unified productivity platform. Users find it impressive, inspiring, intriguing, fantastic, simple, and user-friendly.
