Really needs a demo, the images are tiny.

I tried to sign up but got this error after authenticating with github:

Uh oh, the heart stopped!

Is this mainly for novelty/fun or is there a serious use for this?

    "Pulse is for team leaders and individuals who believe software is created by and for humans."

    I feel like you can glean your answer from that statement.

    • ajeet_dhaliwal 9 years ago

      I do agree with that statement (in quotes) and if the purpose of Pulse is to be reminded of this then I think that's a novel idea and perhaps lightens the mood alongside Mixpanel/Google Analytics etc.

        Yeah exactly. I've sat in so many engineering rooms with graphs that, while colorful, end up obscuring the human users behind them. Pulse isn't trying to replace New Relic, Datadog, etc but complement them.

Can you share the pulse URL for the onload on the page itself?

  • topher200 9 years ago

    Yeah, that would be helpful. Some kind of live demo/video would be more engaging than the static images on your current landing page. Looks like it could be cool!

      Thanks for the feedback! I agree that plain images aren't that compelling. I'll work on a more dynamic demonstration.

    I'm not sure what you mean - which page?
