Best Project Management Software!

It's honestly hard to think of cons; I am extremely satisfied with this software. However, one issue I’ve encountered is the inability to post images solely in the comments—any image posted also gets added to the attachments. For my needs, I want images in comments to remain separate from those in attachments to avoid confusion and disorganization. If users had the option to keep images exclusive to the comment section, this software would be truly perfect.

Pros

If you're not using Trello for task management, you should be. It's the best software out there for this purpose, incredibly easy to learn and master—I got the hang of it in just 5-15 minutes. Trello's ability to create unlimited lists to customize our workplace pipeline is invaluable. I can update my boss on task progress with a couple of clicks, and she instantly gets notified and provides feedback. I constantly use labels and checklists to track smaller details, ensuring we both fully understand the current status of tasks. My co-workers also use it, making it easy to check project statuses without having to ask them directly. This software has truly transformed the way I work, and I can't imagine going back to a time before Trello.

Cons

It's honestly hard to think of cons, I am just extremely satisfied with this software. Although one I can think of is the inability to post images in just the comments, if you post an image, it will be added to the attachments as well. For my use case, I want images in the comments and images I add to the attachments to be separate as it can get a bit unorganized and confusing. If they let users have the option to keep an image exclusive to the comment section then the software would be truly perfect.

It was the only platform in this field we were originally aware of so used it somewhat effectively at first then found a competitor we liked more and made the switch.

Pros

This was our go-to product for some time a few years back. We were able to manage projects between several employees in different offices.

Cons

We found it difficult to teach new employees to use effectively and therefore switched to another platform last year.

In my experience, Trello is a quick and simple way to manage tasks and projects for a remote team. I've used it mostly for managing content creation and approval as well as small SEO tasks and found it effective.

Pros

I do appreciate Trello's simplicity: it's easy to onboard new users and teach them the basics so you can hit the ground running. I've found it most helpful for managing the content creation and approval process.

Cons

The customer service is slow—at one stage we waited a week for a ticket to be addressed and the response wasn't helpful.

I have been using Trello for a very long time. It was my first introduction to using digital product management. Most of my clients already use Trello which makes it easy because I don't have to sell them on the software.

Pros

I like that Trello is simple to use and gives you a lot of different ways to manage your projects and collaborate with others. Additionally, I appreciate the number of Workspaces even on the free plan that allows me to organize and collaborate on a number of projects. As a freelancer, it is helpful to have different Workspaces for different projects.
I also like that I can copy checklists from one board to another and create templates. This helps me manage repeated tasks that I do for different clients and manage my SOPs.

Cons

I'd like to be able to add custom fields but the add ons for this require a paid plan. This would help me systemize repeated tasks.

My experience with Trello has been amazing. I have not encountered a better program that works as well as Trello when it comes to efficiency and organization.

Pros

Trello has been the best tool to keep me and my coworkers organized with the many tasks that we do everyday. It is very customizable which allows any business to cater it to their own goals. My favorite features are task assignments, automation, and unlimited column creation.

Cons

I wish that Trello was a little more varied in customizable options for backgrounds, colors, banners, etc.

Overall, Trello made managing design projects simple and streamlined. It’s intuitive and visually appealing, which suited my needs for tracking tasks and project stages, though it could use more flexibility for design-heavy workflows.

Pros

Trello’s visual boards made project management easy to navigate, which is great for a designer juggling multiple projects. The layout allowed me to organize tasks, track progress, and keep all design assets in one place.

Cons

The limited customization options for labels and card layouts can feel restricting, especially when trying to tailor the boards for design-specific workflows or complex projects.

My experience with Trello has been very good. It helped me organize my projects in an easy and straightforward way. I like how I can customize everything to suit what I need. Working as a team has also become simpler, as we can assign tasks and see what each person is doing.

Pros

What I like most about Trello is that it is easy to use and has many useful functions. I can organize my projects in a simple way, assign tasks to my team and see the progress of everything in a very clear way. It's also cool because I can use Trello on my computer, cell phone or anywhere I have internet. This helps me stay organized and work better with my team.

Cons

Although Trello has many very useful integrations, some of them are a little complicated to set up.

Trello is easy to onboard new people and set up organization boards in the Kanban style for keeping track of projects as they progress through a workflow. However, many of the basic features that used to be free have moved behind a paywall that is prohibitively expensive for small teams of less than five people.

We paid for a two-person setup, but random features reserved for paid users would occasionally stop working. One time we could not user stickers on the face of cards. Another, the drag and drop functionality between cards stopped on the browser. Also, the email-to-board functionality is really limited compared to competitors.

Pros

* Easy to onboard new people
* Easy to set up workflow and multiple boards
* Lots of customization if you pay for premium seats
* Automation makes board management less tedious

Cons

* $10 per user price is prohibitively expensive for small teams
* The email to board experience is not as robust as competitors
* Features randomly stop working with no communication

I have used Trello on and off for roughly 10 years now and at multiple companies. Occasionally, I'll try a different platform because some aspect of it appeals to me (like easily toggling between cards, lists, and gantt views like some platforms), but I always wind up coming back to Trello because it's the best way for me to track multiple projects and a global team. It's so robust at even the free level and setup is so much simpler than other platforms. I've gotten to where I even have a "workspace" for my personal life so I don't drop any balls there, either.

Pros

I love how easy Trello is to set up and how robust it is even at the free level. Editing and creating cards from templates is much simpler in Trello than in other platforms and I spend less time on project management than I did before we made the switch. It was intuitive for my team to learn and we've had fewer things slipping through the cracks since we switched.

Cons

I do wish I was easily able to see projects a different way in Trello. There's probably a way to do it that I haven't found, but if it exists, it's not as simple as other platforms.

Pros

Trello's intuitive interface simplifies task management, offering customizable boards, lists, and cards to organize workflows effortlessly. Its collaborative features foster team coordination with real-time updates, comments, and file attachments. Integration with other tools enhances productivity, while the flexibility to adapt to diverse project needs makes it a versatile solution for teams.

Cons

While its simplicity is a strength, some users may find the interface overly basic for complex project management needs. Additionally, dependency tracking and advanced reporting options are lacking compared to other platforms.

Overall, I find it a fantastic alternative for project management for small-medium teams and projects. It saves a lot of time and money because it allows the team manager to keep track of all the tasks and really helps with the member's collaboration. I highly recommend it!

Pros

Visually it is very beautiful and feels organized and clean. It allows a lot of customization and movement of the cards so you can really play around with your options saving a lot of time. It is very versatile in this sense. At the same time, it is super easy to learn and when you bring a new member to the team, little explanation is needed to get them integrated.

Cons

If the project has many moving parts or many members, it starts to feel cluttered and slow. The search tool could use improvement too.

Trello was an excellent tool for managing tasks and workflows. Its straightforward interface and flexibility made it ideal for team collaboration, though it could benefit from more built-in advanced features.

Pros

Trello has a very intuitive design and is simple. The visual board layout made it easy to organise tasks, track progress, and collaborate with team members effectively. I work around tech teams but not within tech, so Trello was my first intro to kanban and I found it very beginner friendly.

Cons

One limitation of Trello was its lack of advanced features in the free version. For larger or more complex projects, the platform required upgrades to unlock better customisation and reporting tools.
