My first submission to Hacker News (I hope I didn't screw it up). This project may not be relevant to many of you, but any feedback on the app or the website would be greatly appreciated!

The app sounds interesting, and the website is polished-- but I don't think that you are going to be getting a lot of sales via the website. That's not how "Enterprisey" software, even at a low price point of $1499, is usually sold.

I think you're going to have to give some thought to your customer acquisition process (which is going to be different than the usual B2C or B2B methods you read about most often on HN.)

Interesting, any suggestions?

Start by talking to customers (or prospects) in detail about their evaluation and purchasing process.

I assume you know folks in big organizations; otherwise you wouldn't be screwing around with TFS, right?

So, find out how they find out about software, and how they decide to buy it.
