Impressed by both the level of ambition of the @josh_swit and the Swit team to create an integrated product suite that brings teams together seamlessly โ€” at a fraction of the cost and frustration of trying to weave together several competitors' tools. In the year of efficiency, when every founder needs to squeeze every penny, this kind of polished toolkit is what lean startup founders need.

@chrismessina Thanks for hunting us! All the Swit teams are truly dedicated to our mission of re:Humanizing Work, requiring a significant commitment. Our goal is to improve efficiency for modern teams, with a focus not just on financial perspectives but also on fostering collaborative productivity across apps beyond departmental boundaries.

@josh_swit @chrismessina I used to handle B2B SaaS costs at my previous job, and the expenses for the tech stack constituted a significant portion of the company's operational costs. It's crucial to find ways to reduce the number of tools without compromising the capabilities necessary for the team to work effectively. Swit offers a variety of features that companies need for collaboration at a minimal cost. Well put, Chris! ๐Ÿ‘

@josh_swit @chrismessina Thanks for the support, Chris! ๐Ÿ‘ And, yes, Iโ€™m constantly amazed at how easily and efficiently all of our teams are able to collaborate and feel connected to each other and our shared goals โ€” all within Swit โ€” despite the fact that many of us are located in different time zones and around the world.

@josh_swit @chrismessina We appreciate the support! I would echo your sentiment that to be able to create a platform that incorporates essential work tools and also supports native 3rd-party apps while at a much lower price point than the competition is a truly remarkable feat.

Hello Product Hunt! Iโ€™m the co-founder and CEO of Swit, and Iโ€™m beyond excited to share our launch with all of you! With Swit 2.0, we worked to transition from a single multi-function product to multiple integrated products, providing you with a collaboration experience that brings your teams, essential tools, and workflows together. Swit was first conceived as a solution to minimize the inefficiencies that stem from constantly switching between single-function work tools. Swit 2.0 takes that mission a step further by also minimizing tab-switching within our own product to ensure that everyone in your organization is quite literally on the same page. ๐Ÿ’Œ ๐Ÿ›— Navigate between channels, projects, DMs, and files in multiple workspaces from a single window. ๐Ÿ”„ Access a second workspace in the right panel, eliminating the need for multiple browser windows. ๐Ÿ–‡๏ธ Integrate both Google Workspace and MS365 into your workspaces for email, calendar, docs, cloud drives, and more! โœ… View task details in an overlay, avoiding the need to switch screens. ๐Ÿ›Ž๏ธ See all your activity and mention notifications in one menu, with related notifications grouped for streamlined review. ๐Ÿ”Œ One hub for all plug-ins, including Approvals, Automation, and Goals. ๐Ÿ“ Access and share files and saved items across workspaces via drag and drop. ๐Ÿ—‚๏ธ Customize your plan by configuring functions and choosing only the plug-ins you need. ๐ŸŒ Support for 17 languages. One of the biggest issues that modern businesses grapple with isnโ€™t a lack of tools, but rather an overwhelming abundance of them. When every team is using different software to do their work, it wastes time and money that could be better spent on company and employee growth. The abundance of disconnected tools also makes it difficult for people to work toward shared goals on cross-functional projects that extend beyond departmental boundaries. Iโ€™d love to hear your feedback on the product, and Iโ€™m happy to answer any questions you may have about the features and functions. Our priority has always been an excellent user experience and seamless collaboration, and weโ€™re confident youโ€™ll find that in Swit 2.0!
Paul Kim
@josh_swit I'm so excited to announce that Swit is now supporting 17 languages. This will unlock lots of new opportunities across the globe. Let's go team!

Drag and drop your email (Gmail and Outlook) into a Channel. It feels like magic, and you'll wonder how you ever worked without it! (check out the third image for reference)
Brie Oh
@keith_lee1 It's one of the coolest features of Swit! Makes things so easy and fast. Just grab an item from the right panel and drop in the channel, and boom, there it's shared. So intuitive.
Emma Brown
@keith_lee1 I agree with you. I love this feature--a feature that makes our workflow super smooth!!
Ashley Orcutt
@keith_lee1 So true, I like that you can drag and drop emails, task cards, files, and more into a channel. https://swit.io/communication

Swit is one of the most intuitive Work OS I have ever used. That's saying something coming from someone as technologically challenged as I am :P. It seamlessly combines all your work essentials, with an option to add on or subtract something specific to your business needs, It also works for any company size or work model. Once you go swit, you never switch!

@nyda_ahmad Thank you for your work and support, Nyda! โ˜บ๏ธ

@nyda_ahmad Glad to hear that, I will retain them in mind!
Ashley Orcutt
@nyda_ahmad Swit has been a game changer for my remote work needs. I love that all my work essentials are in one app, and I can easily collaborate with my team using task cards and channels.
Allegra Barnes
@jinsan_kan Hi Jinsan. Have you tried Swit yet? Please let me know how it goes! I love to hear from you!!
Marie Angelie Censon
Swit is such a great tool! Dragging and dropping everything from emails to meetings across different channels is a game changer in my workflow, so much more efficient. Our remote teams in Swit never had any problems with aligning even with different timezones involved.
Sydney Chan
@anj_censon We're so glad it has changed your workflow and hope it continues to change your workflow. Thank you for your work and for using Swit. You're an integral part of what we do at Swit! โ˜บ๏ธ
Ashley Orcutt
@anj_censon Dragging and dropping is my favorite feature as well! I like being able to drag and drop a task card, email, file, and more into a channel to collaborate more efficiently with my team.
Allegra Barnes
@anj_censon @ashleymaeorcutt Dragging and dropping is my favorite feature too!! It does work like a charm!!
Eunkyo Jo
@anj_censon Exactly, Swit makes working in different timezones easy with trackable work all within one platform :)
Charlie Choi
Looks amazing! How were you able to provide so many features for comparatively lower cost to competitors out there? Also, we use Slack. What would be the best way to port all of our existing data to Swit?
Kay Seong
@charlie_choi3 We're delighted that you find our product amazing! ๐Ÿ˜„ Our ability to offer a robust set of features at a competitive price point is due to our team's dedication to efficiency and a customer-centric approach. Also, we know the struggle faced by early-stage startups โ€“ juggling limited resources, keeping everyone aligned, and still building something incredible. That's why work collaboration features like communication and project management are at the core, all without breaking the bank.
Kay Seong
@charlie_choi3 We offer a convenient Slack import feature that allows you to seamlessly transfer all your existing data to Swit. If you have any questions about the import process or our product, our amazing support team is always happy to help. Just ping us, and we'll be there to guide you every step of the way. ๐ŸŒŸ
Nyda Ahmad
@charlie_choi3 Hello! Kay has already answered your main question but I thought you'd want to see a detailed comparison of Swit Vs. Slack. https://swit.io/blog/detail/en/s...
Allegra Barnes
@charlie_choi3 Hi Charlie! Thanks for the question. Please check this out! https://swit.io/blog/detail/en/s...
Josh Lee
@charlie_choi3 Good question. It's possible only because we're a compound startup, meaning we offer multiple products working seamlessly in one ecosystem. So we don't depend on one single product for our revenue growth. If clients adopt one of our products, they'll come back to us when they need another. Thanks.

Swit is all you need for management and collaboration at work. I've been using Swit for several months now and Swit is simply the best productivity and task management tool I've used. Not only does Swit offer the widest variety of features that fill in all...I mean all... of your needs to manage your work and collaborate with colleagues, it does so by seamlessly connecting and integrating both the internal and 3rd party plugins. The product is best-in-class both in useability and usefulness. Kudos to the Swit team! And congratulations on your launch!
Kay Seong
@kisang_pak1 Wow, what an amazing comment! We're truly humbled by your kind words and thrilled to hear that Swit has become your go-to tool for work management and collaboration. Best-in-class usability and usefulness? That's our jam! Thank you again for being such a champion of Swit. We're incredibly grateful to have users like you on board!
Brie Oh
@kisang_pak1 You are truly a champion of Swit! Thank you so much for your empowering feedback. Feeling proud to be one of the makers! ๐Ÿ™Œ
Josh Lee
@kisang_pak1 Your team's rooting for Swit by sharing great feedback from our initial versions has been unspeakably grateful. Positive recognitions from industry leaders are always rewarding. Thanks!!!

It sounds like a big project, an operating system for doing all sorts of works in one place. Impressive! ๐Ÿš€ Congratulations on the launch
Garrick Antikajian
@naveed_rehman Thanks so much for your support, Naveed! ๐ŸŽ‰ And, yes, it really makes things so much more efficient!
Brie Oh
@naveed_rehman I'd admit that it is an ambitious project. And that's why we call ourselves an operating system, not a tool. Hope you keep an eye on Swit and watch it getting realized. Thanks for your support!
Ashley Orcutt
@naveed_rehman Thank you for your kind words! Swit 2.0 is definitely a game changer and combines your work essentials all in one place.
Allegra Barnes
@naveed_rehman Thanks Naveed. Have you tried Swit yet? I would love to hear from you. I have no doubt that you will like Swit. Please let me know how it goes!!
Nyda Ahmad
@naveed_rehman That's so nice to hear! It's so exciting to find a product that you know is going to be a staple in your life from then on!
Carol Moh
Congrats on the launch! ๐Ÿš€ I hadn't come across Swit till today and combining everything into one place, with the dragging and dropping of emails is *chef's kiss* - I have some team members who prefer to email me and some prefer to send chat messages. It can be hard to keep documentation/notes all in one place but with a platform like this, it seems to take care of that issue! Can you set up chats/projects that can be accessed by external parties like freelancers or agencies?
Ashley Orcutt
@carolmoh Thank you so much for your support! When you select your plan, you're able to add-on our Guest Plug-In which lets you collaborate with business partners in your workspace! You can then add them to specific channels and projects so they can work directly with your team. Here's what Swit 2.0 has to offer: https://swit.io/blog/detail/en/r...
Josh Lee
@carolmoh Thanks for the comment! Yes you can do that in two ways. 1. You can create a partner workspace and invite them as guests. You can easily manage multiple workspaces with our cross-workspace features like searches, files, saved, and notifications. 2. You can create channels & projects for guests in the workspace that your team's working on.
Allegra Barnes
@carolmoh @josh_swit Wow! That is a very intuitive way of managing the guest feature! I love it!
leeze
@carolmoh @josh_swit @allegra_b There was a guest function. That's good information. I was worried because there were a lot of people working on site who were doing temporary work, so I will try to make good use of it.
