Good value, works well
Really solid tool overall. It integrates well with VS Code / Slack / Notion — my daily drivers. My only complaint is the pricing could be more competitive.

Useful and reliable
Strong product with room to grow. The interface is intuitive enough that I didn't need to read any docs. The ROI was clear within the first week of using it. The learning curve was steeper than expected. Highly recommend.
