End-to-end project management capabilities and offers seamless vendor and client contract alignment
The system is old, so there are several issues that arise when we fetch data from integrated systems. Sometimes the data gets stuck, and there are instances where we need to access multiple pieces of information simultaneously. This creates problems that I have personally experienced. Therefore, these aspects need to be much more free-flowing and seamless. If something gets stuck, it takes time to resolve, and during the contract phase, we have Service Level Agreements (SLAs). If those SLAs are breached, it becomes problematic. Given that there are approximately 3000 projects running concurrently worldwide, utilizing the system with a vast database and numerous activities taking place. It could benefit from decentralization. Currently, it operates as a central system, but if it could be centralized for specific subsidiaries, it would be easier for us to manage.

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

"It improves productivity, cash flow management, and inventory control for clients."
"Trello definitely saves time and makes things a lot easier, except when it's buggy."
"The best feature Trello offers is that it keeps things better organized, so it makes things easier to collaborate with people."
"Trello is not as complex as most of the other products are."
"I like how user-friendly, visual, and intuitive it is. It doesn't take a lot of time to figure out how to make it work for you."
"Another feature that impressed me is the clear Kanban board, as it provides a clear view of to-to tasks, assuring the team not to forget anything."
"While Nasuni has a learning curve, it becomes user-friendly once mastered."
"The solution is great for project management."

Cons

"The platform's support structure needs improvement."
"It would be valuable if SAP integrated seamlessly with some products like Jira and Bitbucket."
"The system is old, so there are several issues that arise when we fetch data from integrated systems. Sometimes the data gets stuck, and there are instances where we need to access multiple pieces of information simultaneously."
"Trello could add an analytic tool that allows me to see the performance of each team member, answering questions like whether they meet the deadline or miss the deadline."
"It would be good if we could update the project status by email without logging into Trello."
"Pricing can be improved."
"I would like to see improvement in onboarding back-office team members."
"Reporting features could be improved."
"It is somewhat challenging to move to the automation part of Trello."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product pricing varies based on whether the client is new or existing and the complexity of their business processes."
"I use the free version of Trello, which is sufficient for my day to day use."
"The solution pricing is okay. The pricing is subscription-based and depends on the features that you need. If you need more features then you will need to pay more. You can use the basic features to lead your project management."
"Trello was free when we used it, but if we wanted many people looped in, we did need to pay a fee."
"The basic paid version is pretty expensive"
"We didn't need to pay for the solution."
"Its pricing is good. It is about $6 per license for what we use, but then there are other plans as well, such as $12 a month. I would rate it a nine out of ten in terms of pricing."
"The product is cheap."
"We are using the open-source version of Trello."
