Do you think creating videos/content is becoming important for people in tech careers too? Or is it just optional networking/marketing?

I’ve been seeing more teams lately trying to build proper client-facing portals, and it got me wondering what people are actually using in practice and what’s holding up long term.

A lot of platforms already cover the basics, dashboards, permissions, forms, automations, document sharing, etc., but once you start building a secure, branded client experience, everyone seems to take a different route. Some stay inside their existing workspace tools, some use dedicated portal platforms, and others end up building custom setups altogether.

Would love to hear what people here ended up choosing and why.

A few things I’m especially curious about:

• What platform or setup are you currently using?
• Did you build around an existing workspace/project management tool or use a dedicated portal solution?
• How important are things like white-labeling, client permissions, file sharing, dashboards, or task visibility for your use case?
• What limitations or pain points did you run into after launch?
• If you switched platforms, what pushed you to move?

And for those still exploring options:

• What would your ideal client portal look like?
• What problem are you mainly trying to solve for clients or internal teams?

Interested in hearing real experiences beyond marketing pages and feature lists.
