It streamlined our project management and resource management process.
I think the functionality with the reporting capability can be improved and I know there's a new version of KeyedIn coming out. I haven't had the opportunity yet to look at the new version, but I would say that reporting is actually one are for improvement. The way their functionality is set could be improved because, basically, what it does is: you can pull a resourcing report and you can pull a financial report, and it seems like they pull from different databases. You're not always able to compile all the data into one report. You have to pull separate reports to look at different data. That's one thing that I found that has been kind of hard with KeyedIn, because you can't view all the data you want into one report. It's not that flexible. You have to work with two separate reports in order to come to look at the data that you want. I would say that's one area for improvement: You're just not able to filter all the same data into one report. I'm also looking for integration here. Integration with, for example, a BI platform. We're implementing a BI platform here. I know that in KeyedIn, there's no real data connector that connects straight – although you can still connect via API - but KeyedIn does not have a data connector right now. I talk to the rep each week and that's something that I think would be a big win for KeyedIn. If it had a data connector already, it would be easier to integrate with other platforms.

Keeps requests better organized
The best feature Trello offers is that it keeps things better organized, so it makes things easier to collaborate with people. I can say that I really enjoyed using Trello for a lot of things, and it has some really good features, such as helping people write out descriptions and the comment section being absolutely one of the best parts of it.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"KeyedIn has been very valuable in helping us streamline our process here in terms of project management and resource management."
"It is a practical and useful tool which benefits both us and our clients."
"My advice to people looking into implementing Trello is to just do it, because it's really a great software, very easy to use, and a great collaboration tool, as long as you implement it into your organization properly."
"Trello has positively impacted my organization as it saves us about one hour a week, and it's really good to have a product such as Trello just to organize it."
"The best feature Trello offers is that it keeps things better organized, so it makes things easier to collaborate with people."
"I think task management, prioritization, rankings, and collaboration features are useful."
"The software is very stable."
"I like the user interface's graphics and the general features and functionalities."
"Trello's most valuable feature is its visuals. You can customize your board with covers and pictures. There are no restrictions in workflow columns as in Jira. It is a powerful solution to organize work. Jira is process-oriented and restrictive."
"Trello definitely saves time and makes things a lot easier, except when it's buggy."
 

Cons

"It was more complicated than it needed to be, but with a KeyedIn implementation manager it was not an issue."
"I would say that reporting is actually one area for improvement. You're just not able to filter all the same data into one report."
"It is hard to track completed requests and show performance based on closed cards."
"Pricing can be improved."
"We cannot link tasks that are dependent on each other."
"Trello could be improved by having a better notification system. Currently, notifications flood my inbox, making it hard to differentiate what I actually need to open."
"Trello wasn't a tool that offered lightning-fast speed like users wanted it to be for them."
"It's really simple, which is a good thing, but it only does one thing for us."
"It could have a bit more customization, especially for organizations that may want to integrate it into their own systems."
"It would be great if there was a tour for new users to explain how this solution works. Using this solution for the first time can feel complicated."
