Very useful, mostly polished
Strong product with room to grow. The onboarding flow was smooth and I was productive from day one. Pricing is fair for the value you get. A few missing integrations I'd like to see added. Will continue using this long-term.

Needs a lot of improvement
Customer support left a lot to be desired. The interface is intuitive enough that I didn't need to read any docs. The AI doesn't just suggest — it learns from my preferences over time.
