Flow is beautiful project and task management software for teams everywhere.
The new Flow introduces a brand-new look and feel, powerful project planning and resource management tools, and greater flexibility for different teams and workflows.
Awesome team task management from an awesome team! Congrats on the launch!

@markhenderson77 Congrats on the launch Mark looks much improved and most importantly productive.
Just trialling the platform as we speak, do you plan on improving the mobile app, 2.7-star rating slightly worrying in such a mobile world.
To me its somewhere between Roadmap / Trello / Asana, of which have freemium plans available, what would you say differentiates your platform?
@johndesk27 Thanks John! We've actually got a brand new mobile app coming your way in the next couple months. If you'd like to join our beta program please email me at mark.henderson at getflow dot com.
With freemium, often that model requires you to gate your most valued features and we decided against that. One of the goals for New Flow was to give our current customers more value, and make bigger features for bigger teams optional, but still affordable for smaller teams.
As to how we differentiate, our customers tell us over and over again that Flow is super easy to use, but I think the tools you named also do a really great job of that. The one thing that Flow does differentiate on is our flexibility. Flows at its best when there’s multiple teams collaborating together. Our goal is that different teams can work different ways in the same tool.

Easily the best team management tool we could find.
Pros:
Really powerful, yet easy to use product!
Cons:
None that we have experienced.

I loved Getflow while it lasted, but it seems they changed their pricing plan with a recent update. Same old trend as other apps: priced for teams, not for freelancers.
Great looking app. Will continue playing with it for personal projects. What would push me over the edge is more dedicated sprint support. This is the sad reason I had to leave Asana and move the team to Jira. The flexibility is great, but at the end of the day there are many open ended project-board services and not enough development cycle services. Would love to see Flow find it’s niche there.
@0xc00010ff But... you can easily create your own SDLC template (or borrow one). How is this hindering your usage of apps like Flow and/or Jira? Help me out here...

Hey @markhenderson77, does Flow support agencies that want to invite their clients to specific projects (like Basecamp)?
@stinhambo hey Steven, we don’t currently have dedicated / limited guest account right now, but we’re working on that — watch this space!

@aidanhornsby That's great to know! I was going to experiment with that but I thought I'd ask too. It's important to know how Flow would look from a guest's perspective too. I prefer if a guest has a simplified version of the UI where they can simply see tasks assigned to them broken down by project. I don't think they need much more than that!

@aidanhornsby Secondly (if I may!) I'd love to see Task and Project Templates (like Teamwork). It would make managing client work so much easier!
@stinhambo it's totally possible today to invite 'limited' users to your org, who can only view specific teams and projects. We don't currently support showing a different UI to user types, though.

Freemium or bust!

The fastest way to collaborate real-time with your team.
A very useful whiteboard that has the potential to manage tasks, projects and timelines in a blink.
GREAT RESOURCE!

Congrats on the Launch! Seems to be an awesome tool. Excited to try the tool in our company.
@markhenderson77 In this new UI design you no longer allow me (paid account) to see other user's tasks? I was able to see other user's tasks without any problem for over a year until right now.
@markhenderson77 just went back to the older UI — i am able to see other user's tasks. Is this some sort of a sneaky 'pay me for something that was not paid' move in the new UI?
@markhenderson77@vahanavagyan I totally get where you're coming from. In the old UI we'd allow people to click on someone's profile through the people page and see their tasks one Team at a time. It was a bit of a buried feature that was pretty limited in functionality, and not a ton of people were using it as a result.
With Task Profiles we added:
- The ability to see a coworkers tasks across all the teams they're a part of, and filter out Teams all in the same view.
- The ability to see a weekly task calendar for that individual across all their teams (also filterable)
- See their private tasks that you're subscribed to.
- Favorite coworker's task profiles for quick access alongside your own.
This is now front and center proper feature that enables team management, rather than a buried feature with a quarter of the functionality.
For whatever it's worth, you can use the PRODUCTHUNT discount code to offset a move to Pro and then some. <3
@markhenderson77@jesseherlitz Even tho we were (still are?) paying account, i now see a 'Start a New Trial' button in my account and i get 'Start a New Organization' — unsure if i should move on with this button since my intention is to continue using current account. Pls advise.
p.s. thans for the 'PRODUCTHUNT' — i'll happily apply it to our plan.
@markhenderson77@vahanavagyan This is if you want to create a new organization, separate from the one you've got going. It's been there in old Flow too for quite some time.
@markhenderson77@jesseherlitz okay this is now getting confusing — before i could easily see my current paying plan and right now i see no such option which makes me uncertain, are we still on a paying plan or dropped from being paying plan to get on the new pricing structure (i've noticed you guys also modified plans). pls advise.
