We love this. If you ever used ticketing systems in the past, you know how fragmented communication can be. Finding and properly responding is a pain. Since we live in Slack, this is a perfect fit for our workflow. Since Slack has great controls over alerts/notifications, we don't have to configure a separate system for Do not disturb.

When I led a team of engineers at a remote company, we had to work really hard to keep everybody connected. We tried small group coffee/tea hour among many other things, but it was always more effort than the team members could handle. This hurt our introverted engineers that still wanted to connect with coworkers. I've started another company since then and hope to use @Campfire as we grow.

I just tried this out this morning and I love the UX. I'm especially fond of the ease to connect to different accounts. There are still some accounts that don't connect (I've had similar issues with Personal Capital/Mint connecting as well). I really like the crypto support which Personal Capital and Mint don't offer.
