As for the new name, here’s how I came up with it: https://blog.use-together.com/moving-forward-with-drovio/
Some years ago, we launched USE Together, a remote pair programming and team collaboration tool. Back then, we were all frustrated with the lack of effectiveness of generic screen sharing tools with remote control support, and I wanted to do something about it. Today I'm coming back to share a new page of our story: Drovio!
Drovio is the evolution of USE Together and the summary of everything we've learned along the way, listening to our users' feedback for the past 3 years. The purpose remains the same, create a seamless remote collaboration experience for developers, yet with a completely revamped UI and some pretty cool new features.
So, what makes Drovio different?
- Instant collaboration with multi-cursors interaction: you're not alone at your desk any more!
- An interface developed with developer needs in mind
- Low latency screen sharing experience
- Fully secure P2P connection: data privacy at its best
- And last but not least: available on macOS, Windows and Linux!
USE Together CEO here - we’d be happy to help and get that fixed quickly, don’t hesitate to drop us an email at [email protected] :)
(RIP Screenhero)
When you share a screen or app with people via USE Together, you see each user's mouse cursor on your screen and they can interact with your apps in real time, feeling like you are at the same desk.
You can share any IDE with USE Together :)
I'm Julien, CTO at OPEXMedia and we are building USE Together, a collaborative screen sharing tool.
Back in 2015, Screenhero, beloved collaborative screen sharing tool, was acquired by Slack. Two years later, it appeared no alternative was out. They eventually decided to fully shut it down last December after integrating some of its features in Slack, leaving no standalone tool to pair effectively.
Last year, we launched USE Together for Windows here on Product Hunt. Initially thought for professionals needing to collaborate on remote desktop environments, we decided to release it to everyone. We also released a Mac version in closed alpha few months later. We took a different approach to what Screenhero was and before it was shutdown. We offered a simple way to join a screen through a web browser without having to download anything nor having to subscribe to anything. We think today's digital collaboration should be that easy: "Hey, can you help me with this issue? Here's a link to my screen".
Although joining someone's screen on a web browser is pretty cool, the experience can be limited as there are many things that just cannot be done with it, mainly for "security" reasons (hello alt-tab / cmd-tab).
We got a lot of valuable feedback from our early users. Six months ago, we thus decided to rebuild USE Together, to bring you a way better experience. We are aiming at making it the best pair programming / collaboration tool in the world!
