Trello Review
I love how visual Trello is. It's easy to see at a glance where I am at with all my projects and what needs my attention next.
Pros
Trello is my preferred project management system, one that I use in my business as well as to manage my clients' projects. It's simple enough to use yet robust enough to handle high level of details.
Cons
I haven't really explored the Butler function and automations enough so can't talk to that aspect of Trello.

Good issue tracking software for small teams and startups
My experience is mediocre, but Trello was not a bad choice for our small team
Pros
- My previous company (which was an early stage startup) used Trello for issue tracking and management. There were less than a dozen engineers, not all of who used it. Therefore it was manageable
- The basic functionality is good if you don't need to do too many fancy things and don't collaborate with a lot of other teams
- Trello is pretty cheap as far as I got to know from higher-ups
Cons
- There was a lack of advanced features in Trello from my experience
- The UI is not the most pleasant to use, and could do with a makeover
- It was not always clear where to put down specific notes about a ticket
- Not a lot of integration options from my experience

A good task manager for small teams
I use Trello to manage the tasks of my part time workers, especially as we are working remotely. I am able to set up projects for the via cards and add any resource material they might need.
Pros
I can use this to manage the task of several workers at the same time. Each of my employees have a board and I am able to add tasks to the board directly from my email. In that way, I am able to take things off of my to-do list because I know that the task is captured somewhere else and the job will be completed.
Cons
I often have a difficult time building out a project in a way that makes sense to me. We use this much less for large project and much more for smaller individual tasks. I also wish there was a easier way of styling the cards. I have attempted to use the Trello code in the cards but unless you use them frequently, you have to relearn them all over each time.

Smartsheets was a powerful system but we didn't have anyone to manage it. Trello is much more simple to use if you do not have a project manager on staff.Switched From

Great for an Electronic To Do List
Definitely helps keep track of all my various lists of to dos, so it's great in that way! The free version is all I use and it is super useful to me.
Pros
I love that I can make different boards to organize all of my various to dos. That way, visually I can see what projects need to be done and when. I also really love the deadlines you can set for yourself, and how it visually changes the look of the board, so that it stands out.
Cons
The only cons for me really is that I know there are a lot more features to it that would probably improve my work flow even better, but it doesn't come naturally, really. It seems like I need to research more HOW to use all the processes available in it. I also don't really like that there isn't a "done" button, only "archive" and to be honest, I don't know what happens when they are archived.

A must-have for organizations who understand the power of Kanban
Trello is a cornerstone tool in our organization. Nuff said.
Pros
The visual management aspect of Trello is extremely compelling. Unlike a one-dimensional task list, Trello provides a robust array of tools that enables you to have a clear overview, while also allowing you to instantly drill down. You have a feeling that their developers are real people who are solving problems people have instead of thinking about cool functionality. Of course they have that too.
Cons
There are some places where Trello is not as intuitive as it could be. I often find myself clicking on the wrong button or dropdown after using it for over 2 years-
