I love the idea of this! What was your inspiration?

I feel like this could be a pretty nice uservoice alternative

Hi raybb, glad to hear you like it! A few months ago, I was building a community indielog.com. I received lots of feedback (feature/bug). They went into my email, twitter DMs, etc. I just thought it would be nicer to have a single place managing them all, so I built Backlogs.
How does this compare to Canny for example?
I know people will ask this question :)

I have considered Canny honestly. Great product, awesome founders!

But the pricing is not that friendly for bootstrappers like me. Backlogs offers generous free plan for developers, which we all like. So pro plan, the pricing is flat $29/mo (billed yearly), no tracking users and usage.

All essential features will be included in the free plan as well, like collecting feedback, roadmap, changelog, dashboard, email notification, etc.

Integration wise, Canny did a good job on third-party apps integration, which right now we don't have any, but we will add more in future.
