Tools and Services we use to stay productive
After looking over many applications/services and reading all kinds of reviews we started to formulate a list of applications the “Bitizens” use. Here is a small list of the top tools we use at PixelBit. We use others as well, but these ones clearly shine.
Basecamp
Project and client management. The Suite is a good deal.
Sortfolio
Good advertising opportunity for little cost.
Quickbooks Online
Perfect tools for managing the business, paying employees and contractors. Also integrates with our accountants systems.
Beanstalk
Hosted SVN for secure, offsite backups. While we don’t use this for all code (contract restrictions) it works quite well for our small team.
TestFlight
iOS Developers “new best thing”. It makes testing a breeze and makes it possible to push builds in minutes with a clear communication with our testing pools.
Dribbble
While not really a web tool it really is nice to get feedback in realtime as a project is being developed.
MediaTemple
We actually have a love/hate for this host, but so far they’ve allowed PixelBit to scale and provide hosted and cloud solutions for a few of our clients.
MailChimp
Excellent newsletter and one-off mailing. Clean, Fast and Intuitive. Plus it has chimps, whats not to love?
There you have it, a little list of the tools we use. We will post some more “company information” in the future as we continue to grow. For now we are focused on our brands and clients, so much that we haven’t even finished our own website. Its the “cobblers children” effect for sure.
