Trello

Pros

A fantastic thing that i have come to love about Trello is how it makes it easy and possible for us to bring all our resources together including the manpower when planing and executing our projects. This allows us to be on the same page when working and to have easy access the resources needed to make our work more productive.It has very useful work planning tools like boards which also makes it easy to track the progress of the projects and keep everyone updated on what is to be done and when.

Cons

Trello at all times has been so committed to offering its best performance levels and personally, i have nothing against it.

Pros

Trello boards helps me go paperless while managing a client workflow. Trello makes use of kanban system that makes it easy to create tasks for projects and breaks them down into smaller tasks

Cons

The only disadvantage that I have seen with trello, it doesn't allow editing. So sometimes I use email if I need editing with my project plan

Pros

It’s good for project management & planning things out.

Cons

It’s very difficult to use for beginners.

Pros

The email-to-board feature is one of the most impactful for us, making it convenient for team members to add tasks to their boards via email, even when not directly accessing the platform.The other impactful feature is the activity log which keeps a record of all changes and actions taken on the boards. This helps provide transparency and accountability as users can review the card history to see the progression of a task over time.Lastly, for us the card voting and polling features facilitate decision-making and prioritization, enabling a collaborative and democratic project management process.Almost forgot to mention the Power-Ups.

Cons

Trello doesn't offer built-in features like Gantt-chart views or timeline management. These are features that are valuable valuable for visualizing project schedules, critical paths, and resource allocation.It also lacks comprehensive resource management features like workload allocation, capacity planning, and resource leveling.It would be lekker (wonderful in Afrikaans) if Trello could integrate with finance and budgeting platforms like QuickBooks for managing project budgets and tracking expenses directly from inside the app.

Pros

I love that Trello is super simpel to use and beautifully visual. Love the customisation and overall view one gets.

Cons

Can get overwhelming if you make too many boards or cards. Keep it simple.
