“My App Stack” is a new series where we dig in with top CMOs, CROs, CTOs and CEOs on just what apps they’re really using to run their business. I always learn a lot from these — they are in essence a best practices list from each leader. Last week we had a great one with Sydney Sloan, CMO of Drata, check it out here.
This week we have Luca Penati, CMO & CCO of BEE!
#1. What’s your core stack of apps today?
I’m using Beefree, Jira, Confluence, Slack, ActiveCampaign, HubSpot, Miro, Webflow, Matomo, Databox, and Ahrefs.
#2. What’s the number one top new app you’ve added the past year?
Webflow has been a great new addition this year.
#3. Other than your own, what app would you never let anyone take away from you no matter what:
I don’t get too attached to apps and tools — or at least I try 😉
#4. What’s your top “undiscovered gem” — an app you love but others may not have heard of?
eesel, a web browser extension to organize all the files in one place. It’s awesome!
