The Best SaaS Products to Boost Your Business Growth

SaaS growth takes a lot more effort than the many success stories that you might hear. Great software is not easy to build, especially if you're bootstrapping.

Hubstaff was an example of how we grew Hubstaff from a budding startup into one of the most sought-after time tracking solutions. It was a long journey filled with questions about what to do next and what we should do to grow our startup.

Combine that with the fact Hubstaff is complex product that requires three desktop apps to be supported, and you will see why we must be laser-focused to produce new features every second.

This is why we always use third-party applications whenever we can.

We are so focused on product, that we don't want our time spent building tools that do not exist.

This may seem obvious but it is a common problem with almost all products that you try to integrate.

Moreover, building your own tools can often put marketing and development at odds.

Marketing wants to see lots of reports, but developers don't have time to create them. Marketing wants to see a lot more images, but the development team doesn't want the code base to store the images. You can go on. All these reasons, and many more, are why we use third-party applications as much as possible.

Here are six SaaS Tools that Hubstaff has used to grow.

Hubstaff has more than 20 SaaS platforms. You will find below a list of six SaaS tools that we have used to help us grow our company after trying hundreds of different products.

Hubstaff Tasks

An effective project management system is crucial for every business. This will help you in your early stages of growth. Hubstaff Tasks is an Agile project management tool that we use.

We use it to keep track and assign tasks to our team members and to collaborate with each other on a daily basis. It's the main platform through which all our remote teams communicate and collaborate to achieve their work goals.

Hubstaff Tasks uses a Kanban interface to make it simple to navigate through large projects. Each project is made up of multiple columns which are populated with Kanban cards, which represent tasks.

Each Kanban Card contains information about the task. The Kanban cards contain a detailed description of each task, as well as the names and contact information for task followers. Hubstaff Tasks lets you create checklists and labels and tag your teammates in comments.

Hubstaff Tasks' Agile Sprints feature allows us to concentrate on the most important tasks. This allows us to meet deadlines quickly and efficiently.

Hubstaff Tasks integrates seamlessly with the Hubstaff tracker so we can use them both together to increase productivity.

Once projects are created in Hubstaff Tasks the time tracking app allows us to track the time. This allows us more time to work and less on checking whether we're progressing.

Visual Website Optimizer (VWO), allows us test and improve pages over time. Hubstaff has one of its key marketing goals: to continuously improve each page in order to increase conversions.

Below is an example from a simple multivariate testing that we conducted on a staffing site. Below you can see 7 as the winning combination. It converted at 23.33% compared to 9.35% for the control. It is clear that we have found something that works. We have just doubled page response rates, so let's see what is driving this positive change.
