Really good — a few things to improve
Works really well for my use case. Pricing is fair for the value you get. My only complaint is the pricing could be more competitive. Would recommend to anyone in my industry.

Mixed experience overall
Useful but frustrating at times. The customization options let me tailor it to my exact workflow. The interface is intuitive enough that I didn't need to read any docs. Occasional slowdowns during peak hours.
