It’s an excellent source for keeping up with new product launches across large saas ecosystems. As a startup enthusiast and a market research analyst, Product Hunt has become my go-to resource for discovering new ideas and competitor analysis, respectively.
Through its well-designed individual product pages, one can see –
1. The complete product overview and what it offers.
2. Community feedback and what’s working/ not working for a product to optimize our product strategy accordingly.
3. Product alternatives/ competitors without doing another search.
4. Team behind the product to generate leads. The community section can also be a gold mine for lead generation!
Lastly, I love their diverse offerings, such as the stories/ newsletter, marketplace (which has helped me get some great deals) and job portal. LOVE IT! No dislike for Product Hunt, but instead for its mobile app. The website nicely lists PH’s offerings, such as the marketplace and community features (golden kitty winners, office hours etc.), lacking in its mobile app. Moreover, the mobile app isn’t as user intuitive as its website, missing out on filters and learning materials like guides. Mainly hunting for new products across large saas ecosystems like no-code, web3 and e-commerce, which proves beneficial for competitor analysis at work. The website clearly lists all new products launched, top products rated by the community, competitors, and teams behind the product. Its integration with Bardeen has helped me immensely in researching and getting to know the saas ecosystem.
