What are some lesser known tools/software you use regularly?

Question

I think everybody has that one tool that not enough people know about that you expected way more people to be using.

What's one like that for you? For me it's Dime. It's a personal expense/budget tracker. I love the user experience because it's so simple and straightforward but at the same time it has a ton of features that most trackers don't.

Hey there, Gurkaran Singh!

I totally get what you mean about those hidden gems in the software world. I'll have to check out Dime since you've spoken so highly of it. As for my go-to lesser-known tool, it has to be Notion. It's a versatile all-in-one workspace that keeps me organized amidst the chaos of startup life and agency hustle. The flexibility and customization options are just spot on for my workflow. Definitely a game-changer if you haven't already tried it! Cheers to discovering those under-the-radar tools that make our tech lives a bit easier.

For me, it's Obsidian. It's a note-taking and knowledge management app that uses a local folder of plain text Markdown files. The linking and graphing capabilities make it incredibly powerful for organizing thoughts, research, and projects in a highly interconnected way.

One lesser-known tool I really rely on is Employee Navigator. It's great for handling benefits and HR stuff without making it complicated. The best part? Whenever I run into something I'm not sure about, employee navigator customer service is always there to help out. It's made a lot of the HR side of things way easier for me.

It's always cool to hear about those under-the-radar tools that make life easier, like Dime for budget tracking. For me, a standout has been a platform not everyone might think to use directly—Employee Navigator. While it's known for benefits administration, diving deeper into their features has been a game-changer for organizing HR tasks and improving workflow. Contacting employee navigator customer service for tips and tricks on maximizing its use has been super helpful. It's one of those tools that, once you get into it, you wonder how you managed without it.
