This came up in a number of different indie dev Discords, so I figured I'd cross-post it here for helpful reference. This is our biz SaaS stack:

• Legal Formation / Business Filing https://legalzoom.com/ (alternatively https://www.clerky.com/ if you don't want to do all the steps yourself, but it's $1k, fees included)
• Business Planning / Pitching https://liveplan.com/
• Investment Planning / Cap Table https://pulley.com/
• Contractor / HR https://gusto.com/
• Business Management Workflows / Database https://airtable.com/
• IT / Email / Office Tooling https://smallbusiness.withgoogle.com/ce/overview3#!/
• Digital Whiteboard https://miro.com/
• Instant Messaging https://discord.gg
• Version Control / Game BaaS / VM's https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/games/products/idazure/
• Reference Resources https://www.ycombinator.com/library/

We have another list for artist/developer tools but this is a pretty comprehensive list of what our Biz Admin team works with daily.

I want to point out that you can do all of this with a spreadsheet, accountant, and lawyer, but these tools have been mostly invaluable for information discovery: figuring out the things we missed or didn't know about through context of the functionality in the tools.

I will suggest to add SaaS CRM (https://www.subscriptionflow.com/crm-for-saas/) one the most popular subscription base business CRM software. Please check it.

Thank you for these resources.

I've been using Notion lately. It's an affordable option for keeping tabular and filterable records. Also, the document or page format is useful for storing longer pieces of text. It beats Word sometimes for quick results.

As far as CRM goes, we opted for what the hosting company provided us: VTiger. It turns out the CPanel comes with a plethora of software you can effortlessly install. Well, you are paying for it. Why not use it? 

This was my 2 cents. Have a great weekend.
