What Fider does
Fider is an open suggestion box for your product: users write down wishes and bugs, vote on existing entries and discuss them in comments.
You assign tags, set the status and answer publicly — so everyone sees what is planned and what is not.
Vote, comment, merge duplicates- Statuses like planned, started, completed
- Sign-in by email link or OAuth
- Your own branding and domain
Good to know before the first start. Fider signs in exclusively through emailed links — without working mail delivery you cannot get into your own board. On the first visit you set the board name and your address; the confirmation link in the first email makes you the administrator.

Also instead of UserVoice, Productboard, Featurebase, Nolt.
What you get out of it

Common questions
At the recommended size (0.5 cores · 1 GB RAM · 10 GB Storage) about €2.80 a month, billed by the hour. Stop Fider and you only pay for storage.
No. No server, no Docker, no terminal commands. You click start and Fider runs. Updates are tested on our own instances first and then rolled out.
In your own Fider instance on servers in Germany and France; bulk storage sits in Frankfurt. Add your own S3 bucket and we back up there daily, encrypted.
Fider is open source and keeps running on your own server. You fetch the files over a time-limited SFTP access and reach the database with the credentials from the dashboard.
