What Users Say
Genuine reviews from public platforms. Each linked to its source. How our reviews work →
Stable software and a very active development team with a complete ecosystem, though it still lacks two-factor authentication.
Community building at its best. You get an engaged community thanks to the easy-to-organize dashboard, though there's a learning curve if you're unfamiliar with Notion-based systems.
