@pendeavor - looks like this went offline. Any ideas when it'll be back up? I'm very keen to use the product... (is there a private beta?)
Matt Farley
@jasondainter Timely question. We actually just released the next iteration of our app to beta testers. Just haven't updated our site yet. The new version isn't super feature rich, but it's a place to start and iterate from. We'll be opening up the beta to the public in a couple weeks. If you shoot me your email address, I can send you the link to create an account. Just note - development speed for new features and updates might be a bit in the slow side. We're just 2 guys with full time jobs building Dovetail in our spare time : )

@pendeavor thanks for the invite. Out of interest who would you say your main competitors and what are you doing/do you plan to do differently?

@rrhoover working on version 2.0 of Dovetail now. Scrapping first code base and moving in a slightly new direction. Same market, simplified feature set. Will update as progress is made.

@pendeavor (we need to embed emoji fonts). :)

Just a quick update on Dovetail -- it's now FREE to use! At this point, the app is functional, but the feature set is pretty basic. We believe in building in public, so we're letting spaces use our app for free while be collect feedback and roll out additional features. Paid plans will come later. Just thought I'd share with the community here : )

Whoa... totally didn't see this question until now. Sorry about that Jason! Cobot, Desktime and Nexudus are 3 other tools that have been in the market for a while. One of the big differentiators of our software is our pricing model. We don't meter based on community size. We really believe coworking spaces at different stages of the growth cycle need different things out of management software. So our goal is to release a plan with features that make sense for smaller / newer spaces with smaller communities, and add on an additional plan with enhanced features for larger, more established communities.

Lack of solutions built specifically for Coworking space management. And user research showed me existing products were failing at solving key pain points. Also helps that I ran a Coworking space for 10 months, am passionate about the movement, and know the market quite well.
