Might sound simplistic compared to other tools, but at Vervoe we have probably used Google docs and sheets more than anything else because it's the easiest way to work collaboratively on ideas and develop concepts as a team.

I've been using this kinda with a grain of salt but definitely helps frame the right questions. Helps validate your idea, recruit your team, design and build your product, acquire customers, iterate toward Product-Market Fit, and successfully bootstrap or land funding.

A fast, easy, collaborative hiring tool

View Product
Beth HudsonSocial Media Marketer, Recruitee · Written
A team is the foundation of a startup. How many successful businesses have you seen that have a disjointed team that isn't on the same page? Recruitee is an ATS (Applicant Tracking System) that allows collaboration during the hiring process. I work with them, so I can vouch for their expertise if you have any question to ask them. Plus, the careers site editor helps attract the right talent!

BoostHQ

View Product
RozBahramiDigital Media Manager, Skyprep · Written
My team used BoostHQ! We created different channels relating to different aspects of our startup i.e. marketing, development, iOS, expenses etc and shared content with team members that were in each individual channel. It allowed us to collaborate effectively with each other but with content being the main focus not messaging like Slack. We noticed while using Slack that a lot of our content would get lost in an endless stream of chat threads, BoostHQ was the perfect solution :)
