Spreading too thin!

We’ve decided to slow down a bit from taking on new feature requests. We’ll continue to accept feature requests as long as they can be implemented within our existing tools and closely relate to our roadmap.

Shifting Focus!

If the new feature requests does not meet this condition, then, although you can still share your requests with us, however, you would have to wait before we attend to it.

We think we’ve spread too thin. It’s time for us to grow vertical by focusing on improving existing features.

The Art of Shipping Early and Often

Shipping code early and often
 

“Several distinct problems manifest themselves as delays in launching: working too slowly; not truly understanding the problem; fear of having to deal with users; fear of being judged; working on too many different things; excessive perfectionism. Fortunately you can combat all of them by the simple expedient of forcing yourself to launch something fairly quickly.”Paul Graham, The 18 Mistakes that Kill Startups
 

At Dryfta, we live by this↑ maxim. Shipping code early and often is an integral part of our code of ethics. The way we do it is we ask our customers to share their feature requests, set them up against our own list of feature updates, and then ruthlessly prioritize code shipping. If you’re the man/woman overlooking product management at your company, you should be skilled at prioritizing product features, market needs and growth expectations all at once.
