"Linear is the app so good it influences life decisions, as I'd never want to work in Product w/o it"
5/5
What do you like best about Linear?

The team clearly cares about design and the user experience. Every feature contributes to an intuitive experience, and integrations are seamless. This is probably the most beautiful and well thought out app I've ever used, and the support team and slack channel are amazing. I've never needed to submit a support ticket, but occasionally send feature requests. However, I'm so happy with Linear out of the box for Product Management, roadmap planning, team collaboration, etc., that I'd be fine without any of my feature requests making it onto their roadmap. This isn't just about having a useful. From watching YouTube videos and Linkedin posts, the whole team has so much wisdom to share that's valuable to anyone working in Saas or product in general.

Not applicable. I have yet to find a true flaw. I have only requested additional features to more easily support housing documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I cant access my account - support acts like I can - Bad Interaction."
2/5
What do you like best about Linear?

Since an incident I had, my whole impression has changed. Product is good, but the people around it make it unessarily hard to trust and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Linear?

From my experience as of now, nothing. Support when i asked for my account access back, switched on many things he/she asked me for and then took a wierd position of educating me on what security is. I am an engineer, I dont just talk about security, I actually implement it, talking down about me on security is ludicrous when i need access to my Linear account.
