Loach's answer
Hi, I'm Frank Smit, Founder of Loach and previous COO of a SaaS company (OBI4wan), which I helped grow from 300K to 10M EUR in revenue and 5 to 75 employees in 6 years.
We used OKRs to set the direction of our company.
However, I learned that setting goals alone is not enough. Our employees simply forgot about our OKRs.
We set up a process where all employees would know what they need to do each week to help move the company forward.
However, tracking all goals and initiatives became impossible without a proper solution, and I didn't find any in the market that focussed on connecting daily work to quarterly goals.
So, I decided to create Loach!
Loach is the tool I wish I had back in the OBI4wan days.
ioBroker's answer:
ioBroker is an open-source Internet of Things (IoT) platform that was developed with the aim to provide a unified and flexible solution for smart home automation. It's primarily driven by a community of enthusiasts and developers contributing to its ongoing development and expansion.
The project was initiated to overcome the limitations of existing smart home platforms, particularly the inability of many platforms to integrate with a wide variety of devices and brands. ioBroker was designed with a focus on compatibility, scalability, and flexibility, aiming to provide a solution that can integrate a vast array of smart devices, regardless of manufacturer or protocol, and handle complex home automation setups.
While the platform was initially more popular among the tech-savvy due to its need for more technical involvement, over time, efforts have been made to make it more user-friendly and accessible to a wider audience.
As an open-source project, the ongoing development of ioBroker is dependent on the contributions of its community, including software developers and end-users, who continually work on refining the software, expanding its compatibility with different devices, and improving its features.
