Trello Reviews

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. 

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 primarily use the solution to organize projects.

Trello is mainly for a Kanban-style of product management. You have a set of tasks and you'll move tasks from one phase to another phase. They won't do anything themselves from the organization's perspective, or from the strategy or the product perspective. A user needs to manipulate the information and set up the processes. If they want to introduce any product, they'll make a different board for that product. Jira, on the other hand, for example, has both a Scrum mode for managing projects and having a toolkit as well as a Kanban-style board.

The solution uses Kanban boards.

The solution is very easy to use.

On the features side, it's very stable.

There aren't as many tracking tools.

If you use Agile as a methodology, Trello doesn't really fit very well. It cannot run at the speed of the team or show pending tasks and backlogs as well. Those types of features aren't really on Trello. Something such as Jira is much more adept at Agile.

The product doesn't handle heavy loads very well. The information does not load quickly once there's a lot of information in the system. IT needs some sort of load balancer to allow it to take on more information and load more quickly.

I used the solution for about three to four years. I used it recently for six months on another project.

While the features side is stable, and there aren't bugs and glitches, the solution can get overwhelmed if there is a lot of information on it. In that case, it stops loading quickly and really slows down. It can only take so much.

I'm not confident we will return to using Trello, and therefore likely won't expand it. We've been more satisfied with Jira, as it is a bigger tool and serves our purposes better.

I've never reached out to technical support. I can't speak to how responsive or supportive they are. It's not something I can talk about.

I previously used a different solution, however, it was difficult to load as you added information, such as images. I then moved to Trello, and now I am on Jira.

Trello isn't as good at tackling Agile development as a solution like Jira would be. It doesn't have the feature sets for that kind of process.

I'm just a customer and end-user.

I use whichever solution the project requires. Sometimes I use Trello, and other times the project calls for something like Jira. I don't use Trello all of the time.

The solution is an online tool.

On a scale from one to ten, I'd rate the product at a seven. The only drawback I see is the loading issues. For a different set of employees, that wouldn't matter much. They can wait five minutes for everything to load and they can do their work quickly, after five minutes of wait time. However, for my role, where I'm directly facing customers, it should be quick to get the information while I'm talking to them to address their inquiries quickly. I cannot say "I don't know." I cannot give such kind of answers to my customer when they're on a call with me. 

For my segment and for the roles I've been in, which are mostly the customer-facing or manager-type roles, it should be quick enough. However, for developers or testers, it need not be.

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!

We use it in our company, since it allows for managing projects and keeping the team informed of all the project's progress and its state. It has been fundamental for our company in better managing projects.

Our organization has improved since it allows a better communication between different developers. Now, projects do not take as long and meetings take less time, since you know the status of developments or tests.

• It can be used online or as an application from anywhere. 
• You receive notifications if mentioned on a card.

In the card area, you should not be able to modify so easily what is already written, as this can cause loss of information.

I use Trello for project management along with my team. 

It is used for managing projects with our clients and updating tasks along with status updates. It helps us manage projects successfully.

It helped us to organize project information and assign tasks to team members properly. Managing several projects together works with Trello.

There are number of features which work great, including some of the following:

1. Drag and drop tasks into boards.
2. Creating multiple boards for new projects.
3. Assigning a team their tasks.
4. Dashboard management.

In terms of time, recording the service can be improved. Users should be able to log their time against the tasks and visual reports should be available in Trello for time spent.

I like Trello's speed. It is more user-friendly compared to Jira. Jira is technical, whereas the management can use Trello. 

The tool should be able to predict the task completion dates based on the date assigned and sprint dates. It is also not commercial compared to competitors. 

I have been working with the product for one and a half years. 

The product is stable. 

My company has eight to ten users for the product. 

Trello's installation is easy and fast. 

The tool's pricing is average. 

I work with Trello's integrated version in Microsoft Teams. I rate the product a seven out of ten. 

We use Trello to manage our company's projects.

We use Trello to update and sync the project status very easily. It is easy for users to start working with Trello because it has a user-friendly interface.

It would be good if we could update the project status by email without logging into Trello. Some other project management tool could read the email and update the content to the correct project.

I have been using Trello for six years.

Sometimes, the solution is out of order, and we cannot access the system.

I rate the solution a seven out of ten for stability.

Around 30 users use Trello in our organization.

I rate the solution ten out of ten for scalability.

The solution’s initial setup is simple.

We are using the open-source version of Trello. Trello is trying to push users to get a license. We are looking for a replacement solution because Trello's price is too high for us.

It's a bit complex to integrate Trello with other tools. I am using the web version of the solution. Trello helps us save time and makes our daily work easier. I would recommend the solution to other users.

Overall, I rate the solution a six out of ten.
