Ask HN: Is this idea worth pursuing?
At work we use 3 different web applications - one to manage payrolls and HR, an application to manage inventory and one to manage our client relationships. Each of these applications is standalone, hence when a user wishes to change their details, a person in HR must make the changes 3 times. As you can imagine, this becomes quite tedious and leaves room for entry error.
I wrote an application using Python and Django that allows the HR staff to enter the details once, and update all applications accordingly (and they love it). I have written it in such a way that with some work, it will be easy for an employee of any company (with granted access) to also setup this software for their system.
Do you think it is worth putting the extra effort in to be able to release this to the public, or has this done before and will be pretty redundant?
Thanks
