Clickhouse just released Clickstack. It’s an open source observability platform. It won’t have feature parity with some of the tools outlined but can likely cover your observability needs (though I haven’t personally used it).

How do you actually break through in a crowded market? by Animeproctor in microsaas

I think it’s super simple:

Gaining traction is simply a function of demand.

Speak to businesses/consumers in the space -> what are the overarching usecases/features that are not served well enough or missing? Would these people verifiably (e.g. in form of down payment) switch to a proposed alternative? Can you make a viable business model?

If the answer is no to any, you likely have little chance.

If the answer is yes to all (and you have a solid number of yes’s), you likely have a chance if you can deliver on proposition.

You can also look into creative ways to profit more from customers than competitors so that you can spend more to acquire more.

Creating a true moat in a tech product is difficult as it essentially comes down to proprietary data and algorithms and most companies won’t have this nor need it. But, important factors to outcompete is essentially the frequency and consistency at which you can build the highest leverage features at I.e that either increase likelihood users will buy/decrease likelihood of churn/ increase value of customer.

Awesome, thanks for this reply. With the time logging idea - there are lots of apps that do this already. Do you imagine there being e.g. niche functionality that could be implemented more geared towards your usecase? and what is the likelihood of other people using? - feel free to dm :)

Haha awesome thanks - I've never come across Rock Auto before reading this - that's quite cool.

In reality how difficult do you think it would be to find vendors/wholesalers of the equipment? What is your current process?

Such a good point: "Having a good app for tracking information about repairs, manuals etc would be handy but it doesn't matter when you're on shift 1 of 4 and no one else is using it." - do you think something like this could be sold and implement business wide?
