The online collaboration and automated linking to our calendars improve productivity

What is our primary use case?

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.

How has it helped my organization?

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.

What is most valuable?

  • 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.

What needs improvement?

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.

An user-friendly solution that needs to be more commercial
Pros and Cons
  • "I like Trello's speed. It is more user-friendly compared to Jira. Jira is technical, whereas the management can use Trello."

The product is easy to deploy and has a lot of integrations, but it must be made more robust, and reporting must be improved
Pros and Cons
  • "The product has a lot of integrations."
  • "Reporting features could be improved."

What is our primary use case?

My organization used the solution for task management.

What is most valuable?

Trello is a task manager. It is a focused app. It doesn't have lots of bells and whistles, just task management. The product has a lot of integrations.

What needs improvement?

The product could add more features. It must be more robust and a bit more comprehensive. Improvements also depend on Trello’s goal and business model. Reporting features could be improved.

For how long have I used the solution?

I used the solution for three months last year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I had no challenges with the tool’s stability.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The tool is scalable. We could add as many users as we could afford to pay for. We had about 12 people using the product in our organization.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is very straightforward. It took three minutes to deploy the solution. The product is deployed on the cloud. The product also provides a mobile app.

What about the implementation team?

The deployment was done in-house. I simply downloaded the app and clicked on the email link that was sent. My organization might have needed a consultant’s help to set it up. However, I just had to download the app.

What other advice do I have?

It's a good task manager. Overall, I rate the solution a six out of ten.

Has a user-friendly interface, but it should allow to update the project status by email
Pros and Cons
  • "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."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trello to manage our company's projects.

What is most valuable?

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.

What needs improvement?

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.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trello for six years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

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

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

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Around 30 users use Trello in our organization.

I rate the solution ten out of ten for scalability.

How was the initial setup?

The solution’s initial setup is simple.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

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.

What other advice do I have?

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.
