So last week we went to Austin and if you read our blog post about it, it was awesome! So onward and upward to our launch where we rip the “BETA” label right off of the product!

Ok, so you might be tired of hearing about Sheets but we’re telling ya, it’s a bear of a project to get right. We’re almost there, hang in with us and you’ll have them for your business dashboards soon!

Speed!

This past week we did something great that you can see and feel, we made our service an order of magnitude speedier! The app is faster on a global scale and we increased capacity and throughput and now your dashboards will load and update faster.

​It’s been go-go tested on Virgin America and it’s smokin’ fast. Thanks to James and the team for dealing with it. We had to take the site down for a bit to make it happen, but it’s gonna help make sure that no mater where you are, in any of the more than 60 countries we have users (we love you!), or in the air, that your business dashboards will be faster than ever.

People

As of March 15 we will be up to 8 developers, yes! We’ll be looking for a content marketing person, but it may be part time.

Internal Tools

We’ve been all using Slack lately, it’s a really great communications tool. You can have different channels so that conversations are steered towards people who care about that channel. You can subscribe to channels that are not private and you can communicate 1:1 with anyone.

The really cool thing about Slack is that you can hook it up to 3rd party apps. So for instance we see real-time if any support query comes in through Zendesk. We see real time when our developers are checking code and contributing to Pivotal Tracker, the tool we use to bang out features. So the business is all transparent and happening real-time. Thanks Slack.

Raising Money

We’re just a few bucks away from closing our first round! If ya know of anyone email Johnny. He’s been fierce at this.

Marketing

• We got into the Framed.io list of 40 spectacular tools to reduce churn, thanks guys!
• A few of us are heading to Social Media Marketing World SMMW15 in late March. If you want to hook up Tweet us (@GetDasheroo) with #SMMW15.
• You can now see all of the Insights we offer by application on our website.
• We’re looking to launch in early Q2 and we’re using this launch template to help us make sure we’re not missing anything.

That’s a bunch of stuff to be working on so we better get back to Slack!
