What I think: It was fun the first time. I don't know that it was worth the rebrand. A little expensive to rebrand something that almost stayed the same. Why not just use the fun colors with it? Make the black, so it can be lots of colors?
Spotinst to Spot - They really didn't have much on their site, for this logo.
What I think: A name change can be really risky. People get to know you, then poof don't know you at all. The first logo looks kind of forced with that "t", and the second logo I like the spots, but hate the "T" still.
