Session should be remembered and Login form needs improving

Currently Aha drops the login session every single time you close the browser. This seems unnecessary and hugely cripples and diminishes the user experience. The information stored in Aha! is no more critically sensitive than thousands of applications out there that allow for extended based sessions which persist across 'new browsers' (using cookies/tokens etc). To name just a few products that allow for this:

• Atlassian Jira
• Atlassian Confluence
• Microsoft Azure DevOps
• Sharepoint
• Salesforce
• All Office 365 Apps
• Github
• Slack
• Asana
• Trello
• Amazon
• Ebay
• All Google authenticated apps
• Facebook
• Twitter
• Instagram
• Any web based email client

All of these house information that is just as sensitive, or more sensitive than Aha, and yet they don't require this over-the-top need to log in every single time you access the browser.  The ONLY applications that warrant such strict session policy are bank/netbank applications, and Aha! is not a bank.  You need not adhere to PCI DSS compliance.  You're not holding financial information.  Also bank applications are only accessed relatively infrequently while product managers will use Aha many times in the day - this is debilitating.  If roadmap information is considered so incredibly sensisitive to company (more important than all the business logic, specs, and IP held in Jira, Devops etc??), then they will have laptop/browser/network policies to strictly tie down access at that level - so you need not concern yourself with that.

To compound this problem, the login process is frustratingly tedious and involves too many steps.  For some unbeknownst reason the login form requires 2 separate screens - one to enter your email address, then a second  one to enter your password, which means you can't use saved browser credentials (or a password manager) to load up your details in a single screen.  This means to login to Aha, you have to click first time on the 'Login' link, manually type in your entire email address (EVERY TIME), click a second time for next, then type your password then click a third time for submit.  Even if you DO remember your credentials in the browser, they don't load up in the initial screen meaning you have to type your username every time. So to re-iterate: 3 clicks and your username manually entered every time to login? I've never ever seen an application do this. Even my BANK allows the username to be remembered.

I honestly find the process flawed and frustrating. Please give this some proper consideration - you go to all this effort of developing a huge, and very impressive software application, but it's completely hamstrung by the most obvious, very first step in accessing the product - which severely impacts the user experience every single time a user accesses it.
