What do you like best about Shortcut? I like the UI the best. The overall ablity to create projects, stories, episcs and add comments along the way make this tool indespensible for me.

"A joy to work with"

What do you like best about Shortcut? The interface is snappy, colorful, and it is easy to put ideas into digestible chunks on their interface What do you dislike about Shortcut? The software is intuitive but generally for younger folk. Almost everyone over the age of 45 at my company hates using it.

"Clubhouse is a focused product management tool that makes it easy to manage development efficiently."

What do you like best about Shortcut? Easy to get started and maintain without much overhead. What do you dislike about Shortcut? Sometimes the lack of customization can be limiting. For example, there was no way to add a RICE score and sort stories by that score. What problems is Shortcut solving and how is that benefiting you? Product management with a small, agile team.

"Ease to use and snappy UI"

What do you like best about Shortcut? The UI is nice and fast. Unlike Github you can have more than two issue states. What do you dislike about Shortcut? I wish it had a list view and not just a kanban view. What problems is Shortcut solving and how is that benefiting you? Need a way to keep track of all our product issues.
