What do you like best about the product?
It allows me as a project manager to keep track of projects and their status. I believe it's a relatively new program so I am anticipating features to be added as time goes on but for now, it functions as I need.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some specific functions I wished it had, e.g., as a deadline date approaches, the date turns yellow and if it passes it turns red. We have so many deadlines it would be nice to see what is coming up. Also, there isn't any real easy way to batch import all deadlines to Outlook, you have to do it by each "pulse", which I find tedious.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking jobs and being able to assign projects out, discuss any portion of a project with a group.

Easy Organization
What do you like best about the product?
The layout allows me to manage my own projects at-a-glance while collaborating with my team to ensure a smooth work process. I really love the customization of the tabs and the three board categories. I'm able to organize my content calendar, ongoing team projects and make a grocery list to share with my significant other all within this tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that the boards used a “tab” key function as in excel. I use one of my boards to transfer a TON of information into at once and having to press enter and then return to the mouse to click the next field is a micro-motions that just ends up costing me efficiency. I also had issues with importing data when we moved from Trello to DaPulse. The layouts offered just didn't work very well for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The visual style of the product is structured enough to encourage continuity between boards but flexible enough to let my team use it however it works best for them.
I am able to organize tasks by whatever metric I choose and quickly prioritize and keep my team updated on what I'm working on. I currently find this most helpful for scheduling social media content. I manage 56 facebook pages for my company.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great for collaboration and tracking tasks with due dates.
Clunky Functional Taskboard
What do you like best about the product?
Dedicated project boards with detailed progress sections.
What do you dislike about the product?
DaPulse is TOO detailed. The ability to add columns to a board and add details that are minuscule to the completion of the project makes the program feel clunky and more difficult to use than necessary. The notifications for tasks assigned to my are not as user friendly as i personally would like and the mobile app is not quite user friendly either.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Inter-office task management and special projects that are not specific to our regular day to day operations are delegated and tracked easier than the previous use of basic email chains and phone call conversations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make the customization of baords less detailed.
When a project is completed move the completed project off of an Active board and onto a completed board.
Cleaner user interface on mobile app.

Visually pleasing and great for storage
What do you like best about the product?
I love the dynamic look of dapulse, the ability for multiple team members to collaborate, and the "logs" we can keep on every step of our project management process.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that I can only make status OR text columns, but not both. The status columns only let you set one "status" display per color per column, which doesn't allow for customization for every row. I manage many due dates, so it would be amazing to be able to display them AND color-code them based on whether they have passed and we are on track. Sadly, that's not an option here. Also, there is a noticeable lag while collaborating with teammates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our business has offices on both coasts and needs to not only keep track of project status, but also share and store documents. We have organized storage at our fingertips and updates at a glance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Watch the demo videos on their site. They're very true to the user experience.
DaPulse is like an odd experiment that gained traction so they went with it
What do you like best about the product?
The only thing I like is that they fixed a bunch of UI bugs that plagued it for a long time when I first started using it. The rest of things that one might say are positive about it, are simply standard with every other issue tracker.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the interface and how it's failed to evolve with the amount of content being shown. I dislike the side bar that is too thin to read people's updates/info boxes. I dislike the replied comments have nested responses worse than 90s email where it gets so thin that it's one word per line. I dlslike the slow animations and drag-dropping features. I dislike the lack of clarity about what things do, and the hidden menus that only appear when you hover over something but don't have a tool tip to say what they do, and the fact that they stay there until you click something else on the site. I dislike the way things have unexpected click events when you want to highlight and copy a line of text but it opens a menu instead where you still can't highlight the line with a triple click. I dislike that there's no button that goes directly to a page where you can see everything assigned to you (You have to type your name into the search bar every time you want to view this page)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We record our bugs, issues, feature todo lists. It does the job of recording them and letting us delegate and tick them off as we go.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I've used Redmine and found it to be more sophisticated/professional than DaPulse. DaPulse is like the kids version of an issue tracking software with lots of color and unnecessary bling features like animation and drag and drop. I used Trello a little bit, and I guess this is like a Trello with the whole drag-dropping, but it just doesn't feel right for a large company with hundreds of issues. I cannot recommend a better issue tracking software because I haven't used enough to make a decision, but the next one we go with will be Jira so I look forward to learning it.
How do we use DaPulse to organize our work
What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity, clarity and general ease of use. Integration features are a nice option.
What do you dislike about the product?
You have to be willing to follow how DaPulse works and there is little adjustability in that. You either love it or hate it, which narrows down the usage scenerios.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use dapulse to manage our geographically dispersed team. DaPulse serves as our task manager, facilitates communication and helps keep track of outstanding issues
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out. It's a very interesting and simple way of managing tasks. It's set up like an excel table so there is almost no learning curve. I would argue that it's the simplest team manager on the market today.
dapulse works for birth work
What do you like best about the product?
I like that we can organize all of our clients and track what needs to be done based on the type of client and we can all collaborate as we all provide different services. Each member of our collective knows the status of each client in real time and that is incredibly helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The mobile interface is lacking. You cannot see information boxes, which is needed when out and looking for uploaded documents about a client. An integrated calendar would be wonderful as we work with estimated due dates and being able to see a calendar of clients would be a great feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a doula collective we offer many different types of birth services. We are able to organize our existing clients and our leads (and classify our wins and losses) all on one platform. We are also able to organize many of the same type of clients that are receiving different levels of service and be able to see where each client is at a glance. That has been truly helpful.
Simple and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
Really simple and easy to get up and running in a functional state quickly. Drag/drop interface easy to use. Quality graphic design choices (colors all mesh well together). Good options for sharing, permissions, and sorting of boards.
Good for quickly tossing in issues or new ideas for future projects.
Good for quickly tossing in issues or new ideas for future projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI, while attractive, is very cluttered. There are just too many buttons, gears, dropdowns, etc., and several of them tend to duplicate each other.
I would really like to be able to use different columns and category lists in different groups on the same board.
The mobile app for Android is a data and battery hog and I ended up uninstalling it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use dapulse as a high-level tracking and organizational tool for internal product management planning. It doesn't have enough detail or power to replace a dedicated development tracking system like JIRA, for example, where you have responsibility delegation, dependencies, and the like. But, this is really nice for getting your thoughts organized and looking at things quickly in the macro level.
Features roll out quickly, and the product/support teams are very responsive.
What do you like best about the product?
The Facebook group for daPulse users is an excellent community to discuss potential features and keep track of new release notes. Its a very friendly atmosphere.
What do you dislike about the product?
When using daPulse to triage requests, for example move from "Incoming" -> "Fixed / Resolved", manually dragging and dropping pulses can be a pain if there are many items.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We work with a client that has sends a large number of requests that need to be viewed in a consolidated dashboard, with triaging capabilities. daPulse provides the functionality required to service this client efficiently.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Participate in the closed Facebook group! Its a great place to keep track of release notes, and provide feedback directly to the product/eng teams. Other users who have found cool ways to use the product also share their learnings there.
Great tool for managing projects across organizations.
What do you like best about the product?
First off, I love DaPulse's interface. Compares to competing programs (Asana, Microsoft PM, etc.), DaPulse has a very friendly, organized UX that is easy for most of the people on our team to use.
DaPulse is used by our sales and operations team to track sales efforts and distributor relationships. It is very easy to assign tasks to organization members and track their progress through the initiative. DaPulse allows you to attach emails and files so no one in the team is left out.

What do you dislike about the product?
DaPulse has a cost associated with it, something that rival Asana does not. Although the platform offers some features that are superior to competitors, users in smaller organizations with lesser needs may not find value in the monthly subscription cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a startup, Proper Soda doesn't have a central office and digital collaboration is required. Having team members in multiple locations makes coordination difficult through just email. DaPulse allows us to monitor company wide initiatives in a single spot, assign ownership, and hold those accountable.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Most PM software tools allow for a free trial and I would recommend taking advantage and trying a few. Some may have features that exceed your organization's need.
