My thoughts just from reading the landing page, not having tested it.

I think trying to replace all these Apps

> serves as an all-in-one replacement of Linear, Jira, Slack, and Notion.

is not a wise move. I can see Linear and Jira and maybe Notion, but fighting with Slack just is an uphill battle. There are so many Chat platforms out there and many open source too.

Why would yours be the one to be at least on par with the likes of Slack? Which hasn't really happend for the others either.

JetBrains tried this with JetBrains Space [1] it used to be a knowledge platform and chat platform all with a code hosting platform, CI platform and a little more. But even an experienced dev company like JetBrains gave that up and focused on the core.

I think they should remove the chat part and stick to being a Jira + Notion replacement.

I think Huly would appeal to people who find peace of mind when using one companies tool, rather than 5 companies tools to do everything they need.

Similar to how Notion became popular to people who wanted to use the same app for journaling, knowledge management and CRM, for home and work.

Hopefully Huly pulls it off, having so many features that work well isn’t an easy task.
