I've replaced some of my tools over the years. Others, I end up using for other people but am not a fan. There are a few others on my radar that I'd like to try out some day (when there's a right fit and budget!) on projects.

Used in the Past: Baremetrics, Mixpanel, PhantomBot, Timely, Hike, Zenkit, Webflow, InVision, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign, Adobe Premiere Pro, Front, Kartra

Infrequent / Not a Fan: Infusionsoft by Keap, Coda, Notion, Jotform, Calendly, Streamlabs

Keeping an Eye On but Don't Use (Yet): Forestry, Simple Analytics, Mode, Qlik, Ionic Studio, Memberstack, Gather Content, Help Scout

And then there's the graveyard. A very salty graveyard lacking desirable replacements.

RIP, Services I Loved & Remain Salty About: Kifi (acq. 2016 by Google Spaces), Google Spaces (2017), Inbox by Google (2019), Google Play Music (2020), Meetingbird (2020)
