Hi guys, any demos or images of the portal? Is the wp plugin on wordpress.org ?

@joegeronimo3 Hey Joe, there isn't a demo but you can see the images in the screenshot, or see an example here: It's not on WordPress.org currently :-) See more

@laurium but it is a wp plugin? Im actually working the same way. Most of my custs have 'intranet' where I collect all there assets and internal apps. But if this is a wp plugin, i would be happy to test and try!

I'm really happy to see that you decided to make a product out of this. Even for projects that warrant a full-blown task management app that you and your clients both access, having a single page portal that links to everything related to a project: the contract, original proposal, staging site, Dropbox directory, etc. is a *must*, both for my own sanity an… See more

@brennandunn Thanks Brennan! I'm glad I listened to everyone at DYFConf and decided to ship it :-) unexpected but fun journey! Thanks for all of the encouragement along the way. (Also hope you're finding it useful with the Academy).

Hey Product Hunters! Thanks Charlie for hunting my first product: Client Portal! I'm Laura and Client Portal was initially created by myself, for myself to use with my clients. When I started freelancing, I had 3 problems: 1. I used a lot of software. HelloSign for contracts, Nusii for proposals, GoogleDocs, Dropmark, you name it. Everything was hosted s… See more

That looks an interesting alternative to Basecamp, and that you could keep control of it, on your own server or firewall could be an advantage for some clients.

@tristanbailey Yeah I tried Basecamp with some of my clients but it was too much for the kinds of projects I work on. (Great for teams though!). Clients ended up not using it which was frustrating. Luckily, this is much more simple, so clients tend to make use of it a bit more :-)

Andreas Duess@andreasduess · CCO, Nourish Food Marketing
I've been looking for something like this for some time. A couple of questions: What file storage solutions does this integrate with, if any? Are G-Suite, Dropbox, box.net or any other supported, or does the plugin allow upload to WP only? I am asking because our files are frequently large. I also think the website needs to show more detail. What kind of m… See more

@andreasduess Hey Andreas, So at the moment, everything is one way. Meaning any communication happens via existing channels. You can use it with anything you can generate a URL from. So you can have any module (the ones shown are examples only) and link to any deliverable. This just means that anyone can use it, it's not tied specifically to designers or… See more

This looks fantastic. I've gone through a bunch of options for client portals with WP, and I'm pretty sure this is now the winner. Nice work.

Really amazing job. I've been trying to find a way to streamline my process, especially as new tools come out. I've attempted to use project management software with my clients, but it's just too complex. This is a great tool, congratulations on launching your first product!

@danielletom Thanks Danielle, that's so great to hear! I had the exact same problem with most project management software - it was great but just too much for me :-)

Brilliant ! Precisely what I was looking for to handle back and forth with clients. Will give it a try !

Samuel@degrems · tsumego.fr / gobilab.com
as a supplemental note: would love to be able to test it for 1 client for free (or for a limited time) to see if it's really worth it in my client pipeline. Difficult to assess with the video only !

@degrems I can give you a demo if you like? https://calendly.com/laura-eliza... currently working on the functionality to get trials sorted. It's coming but I'm a bit slow (the curse of not being a developer :-))
