Thanks @t55 for product hunting us,
XROS is a messaging app for work. What's unique about it, is that it's optimized for external communication rather than in-team messaging like Slack and others.
In practice, it means you can instantly create a Channel, with any group of people from any company - and get everyone on-board in seconds, without registrations, passwords or forced downloads. It's extremely fast and simple.
This speed and simplicity means XROS can replace emails as a means of communicating across companies, with all the huge advantages that channel messaging brings.
Who would benefit most from XROS? anyone who works extensively with people from other companies: freelancers, consultants, service providers, CEOs, business people, salespeople, investors, bloggers.... the list is endless. If you communicate a lot externally, XROS is perfect for you.
What channels can you create? channels to discuss ongoing projects, potential deals, products, development tasks - anything that a group of people needs to get done.
And the advantages? full visibility in real time over everything that goes on in ALL your ongoing discussions. You can get off a 12 hours flight, and in 2 minutes be fully updated on everything that has happened while you were away. Compare that the wading through emails threads, whatsapps, texts, skypes messages, and you start to get the huge improvement of starting to use XROS.
As we say, put any group of people on a channel, and watch how they become a team.
Would love to hear your feedback, and answer any questions...
@amibendavid how sticky has the product been to your current users?
Are you targeting the freelancers/consultants/etc first and how is your user acquisition process?
I know quite a few people who can't stand running multiple email accounts for managing clients etc.
Are you concerned that maybe Slack could bring out an integration that will do similar?
@amibendavid You can express the uniqueness of XROS way better than I can. Love the no-need-for-an-app approach of XROS. That, and the fast and simple'ness of the platform.
If you’re anything like me, you’ve got various professional conversations with people from many companies, happening in different platforms simultaneously, mostly email, but also WhatsApp, Facebook, Skype, Twitter, and more. XROS aims to put all your business communications into one professional messaging platform. It's super easy and simple to use!
