I find that my problem isn't finding services that match a requirement I have, but picking which one to use. It's totally overwhelming how many services do pretty much exactly the same thing these days.<p>I love that it's like this in the sense that there's healthy competition and they're all pushing each other forward, giving each other ideas to improve, etc... but as a pure consumer of these services, it's incredibly daunting to actually choose which to use.
Doesn't anybody do shit on their laptop anymore or on their own server? Why does it have to be 10 thousand services, why the dependency on the network and other entities? How many of these will go bankrupt by the end of the year, how many will change their terms in an incompatible way with your company project or your personal one?

Needs to denote difference between price per month and price per user per month.<p>Especially on items like support and HR. Apps that charge per user in “flat hierarchy” companies like mine where any employee can do anything is death to your service because I’m not paying for all my employees when we equally share the workloads depending on schedule.
Time to remove <a href="https://www.blitz.io/" rel="nofollow">https://www.blitz.io/</a> from the list or add them to a dead-pool. Looks like they are shutting down October 1st, 2018. :(<p>"It's time to say farewell...
Blitz will be shutting down on October 1, 2018. We'll no longer be accepting new subscriptions. Subscriptions will not be renewed after June 30, 2017. Your account credits will still be accepted until October 1, 2018."
Not affiliated but gcp could use some more recognition... as quick example firebase is also "deployment" and "identity verification". It's only mentioned as "database" which really does not do it much justice.
The contributing guidelines page at <a href="https://github.com/davisonio/awesome-irc/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/davisonio/awesome-irc/blob/master/CONTRIB...</a> gives a 404.<p>Wanted to mention mattermost.com/.org as a Slack alternative in the Group Communication/Chat Tools section.
I don't understand why is there not more competition / options in the BaaS area. User management is stable, almost boring functionality required by every single product.
I would add site24x7.com for server monitoring. We're monitoring all sites and services in our small startup for just $10 a month. Sends out all type of threshold alerts and supports scheduled maintenance. Many other features I haven't even scratched the surface of.
How come all these awesome lists use free form markdown? This is the sort of data that should have some sort of structure, if only just a schema less json file. That would make it easy to run a script from time to time to, for instance, remove 404 entries.
Anyone knows about a team shifting saas around there?<p>A tool that could help me to design and automatize a shift schedule for security guards for instance.<p>Basically I am looking at the following assumptions:
- 24/7 coverage
- 8 hours shift
- 40 annual leaves days per year
- 14 days of certified sick and uncertified sick leaves per year.
- need for 52 periods of 2 consecutive days off (week ends).
- team composed of 3 personnel.
- 15 working days of training in the year.
- teams of 3 personnel for each shift.<p>So I could easily answer how many teams of 3 personnel do I need and what type of shift schedule works for that?<p>Would you have any idea about that? Thanks.
I've got to mention <a href="https://www.logrocket.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.logrocket.com</a>, for error tracking, APM and user testing combined. Great price point, great support and absolutely changed the way we understand and capture errors. I'll create a PR to add it.
Great list! Thank you author!<p>Side note - does anybody tried clockify.me ? Looks awesome, and it's free! Wondering how they earn money and how reliable they are.
