hey good feedback thanks.

- I'll look in to the speed issue. - the screenshots, i'll maybe make those lightboxes - I'm not sure what you mean by high-level offer? - the free forever is basically freemium and i'm trying to get away from that, but i'll consider it. I wondered about making a 7 day trial but like you say making the 'after 7 days you get put on your free account', or something like that.

I recently had your feedback on my Invoicing app, well this one is for Project Management. I'd love your thoughts - particularly on the home page. Does it explain the product well enough and is it catch enough to make you want to sign up? We've got nearly 6000 users so far.

I just put a LiveHelp thing in, so if you want to talk to me about Invoice Bubble you can on the site. I also disabled Forced SSL, so it should be faster now - thanks for your feedback everyone.

:) sorry to disappoint! sounds like a good idea for an article.

Hey. API is in development yes. Yes well Paypal will take their 3.4% off you, we are literally just storing your invoices and connecting your clients with Paypal. We don't take any payments from your client - it goes direct through to Paypal. Feel free to contact me if you want to talk more about it.

Hey, where are you from?

Hey thanks. 1) Yup, ok will put those in. 2) There is already data export for everything. 3) You are 100% right and I need to sort this out.

Thanks for your helpful feedback.

Hey. Yeah that's an option. Last month we helped our users create over $50,000 in invoices (thats invoices that were paid), so a percentage would be an interesting idea. :)

Yup, building the API and the iPhone app at the moment. Should be ready soon.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll fix the typo. Let me know if you think that Project Bubble's home page is any more exciting. I have spent a lot longer on that one (from a marketing angle): http://projectbubble.com

Ahh yes... the whole site is on HTTPS.

I'm not sure what the best approach is for the SSL. It looks good when people go to the site and see the seal, they know its a secure site. But it can slow things down. I could make it so that only the actual logged in interface, and the signup page are secure. What do you think?

Seems ok for me? Since posting this the site has experienced a lot of traffic because it's popping up on lots of feeds so maybe try again in a bit. But I'm not having any problems. I'll see if I can boost resources a little.

Hey thanks for the comments. So Paypal handle the payments at the moment. Not ideal - but 1) people trust and recognise the Paypal brand 2) it's great for startups because there isn't any investment needed to set it up or integrate it. But you lose out when it comes to the 3.9% they take on the payments. Long term I will probably end up using CheddarGetter or similar.

would appreciate your thoughts on Invoice Bubble which is my app. It's not free, but it does have SSL security, PDF attaching, client management and stuff like that - but really simple and only $5. https://invoicebubble.com

Interesting. I suppose you could buy credits, similar to Skype. I think people might get a bit frustrated though having to purchase additional project. I like the KISS ethos, so having a Free and Premium option certainly makes things a lot more simple.

Wow really useful. Thanks for this, it will make good bedtime reading tonight. :-)

Yes, I like this idea. I think that users love being valued, and feeling special. I would offer a killer deal to those that have been 'power users' since the beginning as they have contributed a lot to the success of the app.

Hiya, Well yes you could say that there are definately features worth charging for. The fact you can manage unlimited projects, assign tasks to collaborators, upload files to projects and submit invoices for those projects are all features that could be charged for. I don't think its right to take some features out for 'standard' users and only allow 'pro' users to use them because the features are dependent on each other in my opinion. So the best thing to do is limit the use, to say 10 projects and invoices.

Thanks for the comment.
