How is your product different from the regular dashboard?
The open source dashboard has a bunch of functions that are missing from the then hosted parse.com service. I tried to solve some of them with Parboard:
- a hosted service means you don't need to fiddle with configuring and deploying a new dashboard every time you set up a new parse-server instance
- analytics are completely missing from the regular dashboard, and there doesn't seem to be any plans for future support, so I thought I'd help automate the process of integrating with popular analytics providers (mainly GA's universal analytics).
- a highly requested feature that was never supported on parse.com was allowing collaborators to access the data browser; Parboard allows you to invite and add collabs to your app so they can access and browse / edit data, but with limited functionality (ie collabs can't edit / delete the database's schema)
- you can define jobs on parse-server, but can't schedule them to run; Parboard integrates with a cron service to allow scheduling jobs for running in the background
The biggest issue I'm facing right now is that to use Parboard the user must make changes to their parse-server configuration (mostly adding cloud code functions now), but I'm hoping to streamline the implementation process in the future.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

This. Other than it being a hosted solution, perhaps?
