+538
Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Deskera is a verifiable, established company (founded 2008) with significant scale ($100M+ funding, estimated $20M+ revenue, and global presence), which drives a high baseline score. However, the submission quality is exceptionally poor, utilizing hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone') and incorrect data entry (entering market cap in the revenue field). The score reflects the strong real-world utility and traction of the actual business, heavily penalized by the low quality and lack of evidence in the specific submission provided.
