Trello Review
I love how visual Trello is. It's easy to see at a glance where I am at with all my projects and what needs my attention next.
Pros
Trello is my preferred project management system, one that I use in my business as well as to manage my clients' projects. It's simple enough to use yet robust enough to handle high level of details.
Cons
I haven't really explored the Butler function and automations enough so can't talk to that aspect of Trello.

Your fist step into task management software
Very easy to use, friendly and intuitive interface and lots of features to collaborate and personalize your boards. Good price for the money and decent support team.
Pros
We love the visual aspect of it: different boards let you appreciate each project individually. You can go and modify the order of the elements or give priority to some task by putting it on top.
It's a very basic and easy to use software.
Cons
If you have a big project, Trello is not the answer. This software is aimed mostly to small operations and small creative agencies. If you need to track software development, this is not the best choice.

A good task manager for small teams
I use Trello to manage the tasks of my part time workers, especially as we are working remotely. I am able to set up projects for the via cards and add any resource material they might need.
Pros
I can use this to manage the task of several workers at the same time. Each of my employees have a board and I am able to add tasks to the board directly from my email. In that way, I am able to take things off of my to-do list because I know that the task is captured somewhere else and the job will be completed.
Cons
I often have a difficult time building out a project in a way that makes sense to me. We use this much less for large project and much more for smaller individual tasks. I also wish there was a easier way of styling the cards. I have attempted to use the Trello code in the cards but unless you use them frequently, you have to relearn them all over each time.

Smartsheets was a powerful system but we didn't have anyone to manage it. Trello is much more simple to use if you do not have a project manager on staff.Switched From

Great for an Electronic To Do List
Definitely helps keep track of all my various lists of to dos, so it's great in that way! The free version is all I use and it is super useful to me.
Pros
I love that I can make different boards to organize all of my various to dos. That way, visually I can see what projects need to be done and when. I also really love the deadlines you can set for yourself, and how it visually changes the look of the board, so that it stands out.
Cons
The only cons for me really is that I know there are a lot more features to it that would probably improve my work flow even better, but it doesn't come naturally, really. It seems like I need to research more HOW to use all the processes available in it. I also don't really like that there isn't a "done" button, only "archive" and to be honest, I don't know what happens when they are archived.

Easy to optimise project management platform
Simply love it and use it daily.
Pros
I am not even sure where to start. We use the Trello board daily and I keep even my shopping list on Trello. I simply love it. We can use it to manage complex social media and website projects as well as just list of items. You can use it for anything you want to use it for. If you can write it down on a paper, you can absolutely do it in Trello.
Cons
It can become very complex, very easily.
I would love to be able to leave comments between task lists.
