Is podio being developed?
hi - I am looking to recommend a platform for PM to a couple of client, I have been playing with podio quite intensively and like the base idea. however when I run into some of the obvious limitations (advanced calculations, better badge display, user levels ...) I am alarmed by the long topics already started about these issues and the lack of response from podio in the forums. I am really hoping to get an HONEST answer from podio about development or whether this product is being de-prioritised. An example - more advanced calculations - the thread was started well over a year ago, after much hassle from disgruntled users someone from podio promised something by end of Q3 last year, and nothing seems to have appeared.

Hey Tony -
In all threads you should be able to see comments from me and others members in team Podio :) We keep everyone updated and will share news if the feature is planned in the near future.
Last week we released the new workflow functionality: http://blog.podio.com/2014/01/09/podio-workflows/ - which was something that many many users have been requesting as well (similar to advanced calculations) :)
We also add all product news here: https://help.podio.com/hc/communities/public/topics/200077273-5-Product-News
From this list you can get a feeling of some of the user inputs and ideas we implemented the past year: https://help.podio.com/hc/communities/public/topics/200071937-4-Completed-Feature-Requests
We cannot prioritize everything at once but I promise that we do listen and keep you updated when possible :)
We did have the advanced calculations in the short-term roadmap last year but unfortunately we didn't make it to it (yet). It is still on our wishlist of things we want to do. This example is also why it is difficult to share specific timeframes on new features as development is complex and agile by nature, and we like the freedom and flexibility to change course if needed.
