LIST OF APPS WE USE DAILY TO STAY CONNECTED

•  Our team is located in 3 countries, so it is vital for us to use the right tools to stay connected and productive.

•  Today, I am sharing with you the list of apps we use daily to achieve this goal.

SLACK SO YOU CAN STAY IN TOUCH

•  Our team uses Slack as a virtual office. •  Every morning we use it for the team stand-up. •  It’d also good for brainstorming and asking questions.

TRELLO OUR “TO DO LIST”

•  Trello is like a super post-it-note for teams. •  We add all new requests from clients to a to-do-list in Trello. •  It’s good for keeping track of our blog editorial calendar and

product roadmap.

SKYPE FOR SCREEN SHARING

•  It's a good tool because a lot of people are familiar with it. •  First impressions are crucial: you don't want to spend 5 minutes of

your meeting explaining to a potential customer how to use the app.

JOIN.ME TO REPLACE SKYPE

•  The main issue with Skype is the quality of the image and its tendency to lag when you share your screen.

•  This is why we are currently testing Join.me.

WORLD TIME BUDDY FOR TIME SLOTS

•  Finding a convenient time slot for a remote team is not an easy task to the point that it can trigger a headache.

•  With Worldtimebuddy, all you need to do is enter the location of your team and the app will find the overlapping times.

GOOGLE DRIVE – ALL DOCS IN ONE PLACE

•  Google Drive is great for sharing and also as a repository. •  We use for documents that need to be used multiple times. •  The only annoying part is Google tends to frequently modify the

user interface.

BALSAMIQ FOR MOCKUPS

•  Balsamiq is a lightweight tool we use to design our wireframes. •  We like it because of its simplicity and limited features, which force

us to focus on what matters.

BITBUCKET FOR DEVELOPERS

•  Our engineers use Bitbucket to manage, share and store code. •  The platform is great for reviewing and fixing bugs. However, all the

features related to product management happen on Trello.

FINALLY

•  Working at a startup is hard, and not for the faint of heart.

•  But at the same time your team should know when to relax

and take a break.
