That's funny. Why would anyone use your site for collaboration when others are available free? Or cheaper?

Happy to use free Basecamp. Plus my daily email is not a free account, so not “subsidized” by anyone, tks.

But we can't be giving out money when our revenues aren't flowing yet.

It's good for a startup to conserve where ever we can.
We will of course have to get a “premium” tool once the team grows.. for 4-5 guys, this is much more than enough.
