How many apps do you use to run your startup?

Question

I find myself bouncing between 3-4 apps a day with my team, how many apps do you use to keep things running smoothly? What apps are these?

Ng Fang Kiang · Accepted Answer

For me, the less the better. Unless necessary, I keep it to a minimum.

Anything Google (Drive to share docs, Meet for meetings, Analytics to investigate)
I also have to connect to Microsoft tools to work with certain clients (outlook, teams)
Social media apps (Linkedin, Instagram, etc.)
In an ideal world, would prefer to centralize everything, any tips?

I'm using 3-5 applications. Slack, Weje, Google Doc are always at hand :)

@klavikova Makes sense! Glad that you guys have an app you can use for major function, I imagine that sometimes it's a bit of a hassle that messaging isn't streamlined

@vmigova @maxine_buchert Weje makes many things to access your data easier ;)

Sandra Djajic · Answer

@jorcus I totally agree, jumping between apps can be exhausting and team members are sometimes not on the same page with work.

Sandra Djajic · Answer

@vmigova Interesting that you have Weje on hand. Slack and Google Docs are currently my go-to apps as well, however it'd be useful if there would be a single place for it all!

We use our app OrgPad (brainstorming, planning, to-do list...) and Discord / Messenger / Call (Whatever just works.)

Trying keeping it to a minimum.

Answer

4-5 apps like slack, skype, google sheets, Zoom.

@alex_gleen I think this mix is the most common, I find it interesting that you use both Teams & Zoom! What's the advantage of using both?
