Trello Reviews

I have hardly had the chance to use Trello since I operated as an admin who was mostly engaged with the use cases of people in my company, where it was widely used. Trello was a tool that was mostly used as an ERP system. Trello was generally used for work balancing and creating to-do lists.

The most valuable feature of Trello stems from the fact of how easy it was with it to see large visual aspects, especially when people were getting their workflow in order. Trello is an easy platform to visualize your next tasks and other things.

I am sure that my company's use cases related to Trello were taxing for the system, so it got rather slow in some areas. With too much information on a Trello board, it got very sluggish. I am sure that Trello board got sluggish mostly due to our company's use case and other bad practices. Trello wasn't a tool that offered lightning-fast speed like users wanted it to be for them.

I have experience with Trello. I am an admin-level user of the product.

Other than the times when the tool slowed down, I don't remember witnessing any outages from Trello's end.

A few hundred people were using Trello in my company.

Trello was a tool that already existed in my current company. Trello was there even before I joined my current organization.

Before someone plans to use Trello, I would ask them to go through all of their use cases and think hard before building any infrastructure with Trello. It is also important to have a good plan and architecture planned out before you start with Trello so that you don't end up building a house of cards at the end.

I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.

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 has become complex over the years. 

I have been working with the product for five to six years. 

The tool is stable. 

I rate Trello's scalability a six out of ten. My company has 100 users. 

The tool's response is not on time. It is the last resort after the forums and documentation. At times, their reply is something that we already know. 

The tool's deployment is simple. 

I rate Trello an eight out of ten. 

My company uses Trello for project management to create dashboards and workspaces.

The most valuable features of the solution are that it is easy to use and flexible while offering the ease of use of drag-and-drop functionality for each task.

The dashboards and flexibility to adjust the timeline view for each task are areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement.

I have been using Trello for three months.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten since they need to improve the flexibility to make changes to the timeline view and dashboard.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a seven or eight out of ten.

Around 600 to 700 employees in my company use Trello.

I prefer to use Jira instead of Trello. With Trello, our company can't see the plans in the timeline view.

The initial setup of Trello is not complex.

The solution can be deployed in five hours or a day.

I installed the product, so it was an in-house process without any training.

I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten.

My company is hiring an outsourced copywriter team for some content purpose. For the first time, we connect by email for exchanging writing documents. Unfortunately, performing tasks by email came up with a poor result that we could not control the progress when several team members participating.

Hence, we need communication software to control the process and results. File storage and process tracking are two key targets. Normal instant text messaging software like Skype or Messenger is not suitable in this case. We have come up with Kanban software, and Trello is one of the top selections.

It separates messaging and files storage, which allows us to handily keep up with updates. Accordingly, we can separate several projects and track the progress with the Kanban table.

In this case, we define tasks by preparing, in progress, and completed to divide results. The completed tasks would be paid from us, while in-progress tasks could be requested to change. Accordingly, I can see the progression of projects with several statuses. Additionally, I can also compare and track the quality of writing documents.

Since we use several tools, sometimes, we cannot signup daily to check progress. That’s why we appreciate the notification scheme from Trello. Trello will message me the updates. It allows me not to sign up for Trello daily without missing any progress from copywriters.

Another feature that impressed me is the clear Kanban board, as it provides a clear view of to-do tasks, reminding the team not to forget anything. Whenever I see the board, I can rapidly understand the overview of what tasks were done and what should be done. Additionally, colleagues could remind me when I miss any progress.

1. Video call and messaging for the online conference: 2020 was the time for remote working and online conferencing while social distancing deterred people from going out. I think, as an online collaboration tool, Trello should include an online meeting feature as it would allow members to meet, discuss, and share ideas.
2. Analytics: 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. Besides, I want to know the time spent on each project and the potential issues that occurred.

I have been using Trello for team management and team collaboration for two years time.

We use this solution for user calls and to issue alerts. Currently only three of us are using this solution but we are planning to increase usage in the future. 

The usability of this solution is its most valuable feature. It offers a great flow of creating a business rule that allows you to just add identifiers and qualifiers. 

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. 

This solution could also be improved by removing the contradiction that seems to exist in the options of filters that can be used.

I have been using Trello for a few months. 

This is a stable solution. 

We have not needed to contact their customer support team as we use their online help centre and it has provided us with sufficient assistance. 

The pricing for this solution is reasonable. 

I would advise others to use this solution because it offers a lot of flexibility. 

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

We are using the latest version, which is free and online.

I use the solution as my personal board for daily, project and operational tasks. 

As a team board it did not work well for us. It allows non-permanent members of the company or team to manage or delete posted tasks and notifications. It was a big problem for us that every member was able to delete or edit something posted by another and we felt the need to remedy this. We encountered a situation in which a member of the board deleted every task which he was assigned, which was a lot. We found ourselves trying to refill all the boards so that our stakeholders could have complete visibility of our tasks, a matter which concerned our finances and overall schedule. 

For this reason we made use in the bank of Microsoft Planner, which we already had in place. It has a feature that prevents others from deleting or editing notifications posted by another. This is nice to have when one must deal with six picky stakeholders.

As for the user interface, I am glad that Trello does not make alterations to this. I like that the buttons and colors which appear in a consistent manner and this is one of the reasons that I remain with Trello. 

I've been working with Trello for nearly five years. 

The software is very stable. It never crossed my mind that there was a need for support or that something was working improperly. 

We have had no need for technical support. 

The installation was extremely straightforward. 

I use the free version of Trello. It is sufficient for my day to day use. 

Although I had evaluated Monday as well as another solution, I decided that Trello was the way to go, as I had been using it for quite a while. 

Trello is cloud-based. 

For use as a personal board I rate Trello as a ten out of ten. 

Remy is a software development company.

Trello is useful for keeping track of all our business functions such as marketing, business development, product development, partners, etc. Typically for day-to-day high-level activities and to-do lists, and also personal to-do lists.

Sharing this information and having it pop up as a reminder on everyone's calendar is very useful and allows for better tracking and collaboration regarding ad-hoc and longer-term tasks and programs.

• The online collaboration and automated linking to our calendars improve productivity.
• Ease of use and intuitive layout makes learning and using it possible in a matter of few hours rather than days.

I cannot think of anything specific that should be added. The system is pretty much good as it is. Maybe being able to position cards below each other could make better use of screen space.

I never had a problem with stability.

Scalability seems fine.

Tech support is not required.

Spreadsheets or calendar reminders. These do not have the required functionality.

The initial setup way simple.

In-house.

I use a free version, so the ROI is infinite.

The free version is great.

Brilliant!

I am just a solopreneur who uses it as an end-user. I am using it to organize my social media.

I am currently using it to organize my social media so that I can see all of my posts and know what I've posted when, and it makes that super easy.

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.

There should be some quick videos and little bites right there in the app to help those who are new to it to optimize what it can do. I haven't done enough digging, and it is possible that they exist.

If there are pre-done templates or suggested templates for various fields, they would be helpful for me as a coach.

I've been using it probably for six months.

I am tinkering with the free version.

I would rate Trello an eight out of 10. I am overall pretty happy with it.
