Ka Wai Cheung of We Are Mammoth answers some questions about his team's recently launched web-based issue tracking tool called DoneDone that integrates with Basecamp.
What's DoneDone and why did we build it?
We built DoneDone because we just couldn't find an issue tracking system that we actually liked (free or paid). To us, they all look like dropdown boxes made babies with an Excel spreadsheet. We wanted something better.
We think issues get solved faster if an issue tracker can delegate responsibility better. DoneDone is about real-time responsibility. It's focused on who needs to do what next. Here’s a post that better explains it.
How does it integrate with Basecamp?
That brings us to Basecamp. We love using Basecamp at the start of a project to collaborate with our clients. We love using it during development to communicate and organize our thoughts. But, at the end of a project, when we're tying up loose ends, we need something that feels more dictatorial than collaborative. That's when we use DoneDone.
We're using your API to let users import companies and users from projects in Basecamp over to DoneDone so completing a project is as seamless as possible.
Who's behind it?
Our little company is called We Are Mammoth. We're mainly a Flash/Flex-based software shop but we also write other software on the side and blog.
Thanks!
