This is like a dream come true for teams and specially students who like doing their team projects in a professional and organized way. The design is awesome and really well thought out. And of course, it’s bound to provide a boost to productivity if it fulfils its claims.
The service is currently in alpha, and we’ll provide an indepth review as soon as we get access.
I am unsure about the product never having used it but the site itself is not very user friendly. A great deal of the text is in images and when you go to signup, the input box for email is the same color as the background of the page.
At first, I thought the page was somehow broken and that it was displaying code. To me, this is not the most user friendly site, which makes me a bit leery to use their app.

I agree with what you’re pointing out Nick, but this site is intended towards developers, and I myself as a developer had no such problems and understood the ideology behind the layout easily.
It’s targeted towards developers and maybe they’ve gone a bit overboard in showing that in their layout. But I’m sure any developer wouldn’t find that an issue.
