New website version (v3)

After giving it some thought it seemed to me that it was time to refresh the website. The old version didn't explain our most important features clearly enough.
I'm a bit scared that the landing page is now overly promising and the truth is at least 1 or 2 features are still a work in progress. But I thought it would be a good way to validate the roadmap for the next month.

How do you feel about the new landing page?
Do you understand what we do?
Do you need a tool like this?

    I don't know what you do, there's a lot of talk about connecting apps but I don't know what benefits are being offered.

    I don't think I understand what it is that makes you such a good tool.

    There are lots and lots of ways of syncing data between tools, I can almost always go to Zapier if needed.

      Hey, thanks for the feedback. We just updated some of the text on the page. Could you take a look and see if it's more clear now?

        Still miles away.

        Try this as an exercise, open up PPT or Google Slides and try to answer these on each slide but you are only allowed ONE image and a limited amount of text per slide, forget the design just focus on answering each question.

        • What problem do you solve?
        • How do you solve it?
        • What makes you bettttter/awweeeesome?
        • Other benefits/problems you solve?
        • What do I need to do next?

        Pet peeve of mine, I'm all on Office 365, I see soo many apps that focus entirely on G Suite and exclude 365 so you are already ruling out a pretty large user base.

          Hey, thank you very much. Your comments have been very useful. Would you mind taking a look again? https://www.palabra.io/?ref=indie

    Your page title needs more text on it :) That's the title you'll have on your Google SERPs, social media shares ... And all it has now is "palabra".

    How do you feel about the new landing page?
    Looks pretty standard. The white space is a bit all over the place, feels like nothing is aligned vertically as it should. Also I don't like that the hero text keeps changing, I start reading it and then it suddenly disappears.
    Also the stripe/hubspot logos look like buttons, they have a similar flat style to the "create account" button.

    Do you understand what we do?

    Send an email to subscribers who are on a free plan
    Not really.
    I assume it's an email marketing tool, where you can send emails to specific segments, but I don't understand what's the USP (unique selling point).

    Do you need a tool like this?
    Not yet, I only need to send newsletters when I make updates to my mailing list, I don't understand how palabra helps me more with that than MailChimp already does.

      Hey, I really appreciate your comments. I made some changes based on some of the feedback. Would you take a look? https://www.palabra.io/?ref=indie

    The above the fold section is pretty barebones and has no visuals, so that could certainly be improved. The CTA is also kinda confusing, maybe go with a more standard one. Also Breffni has a great point, you should try and focus more on what differentiates your service from others.

      Hey, thank you very much. The hero section has a visual actually, I'm wondering if you are seeing the same thing that I am. In any case, we made some big changes on the landing page over the weekend, would you care to take a look? https://www.palabra.io/?ref=indie

        Seems like on medium width you can't see the illustration on the right. The explainers are way better now and i think the whole page communicates information more clearly now.
