Trello Reviews: 4.4/5 — Solid Choice

It’s easy to use but basically useless in my opinion

There are simpler softwares on the market

Mainly just organizing thoughts and timelines for things

Nothing really. It’s a disorganized pin board.

It is a soft crm. It’s bad are alerts, keeping projects moving forward.

We tried to use it for event planning but it was bad.

I like that you can change the background picture and customize the board.

I do not like the layout of the tasks and I think the overall system design is not very user friendly.

I use Trello to manage tasks within a group for certain projects.

I think conceptually, this is a great idea. However, I simply could not find an easy way to use this.

I found the editorial calendar to be too complicated to use on a daily basis.

None so far. It was not user friendly enough for me.

It's very basic, so in that respect it was easy to learn. But beyond that there wasn't much to get excited over.

We tried using this for team task organization and it felt like we'd be better off with post it notes on a wall because that's essentially what this is. Far too basic for any sort of project management.

Team task management; it didn't fit the bill.

I used to be a Television Writer/Producer and we unknowingly were using a system similar to Kanban to create character arcs and plots and twists. Now, in my life as I leave my sabbatical and re-join Entertainment, I am using Trello to help me reorganize my life, my projects and our writing.

I can't tell if I'm a little clunky or if it is the software that isn't quite as 'ergonomic" to my style as I would like. At this moment, I like it.

My writers, my actors, my own life and writing are all benefiting. I'm getting better at using it. Hopefully, I'll smooth out my use of the interface

I like that it is very visual, and you can pick different themes and organize everything on one page. There can be dates associated with cards, and different priorities. It is very good for organizing goals or activities.

I dislike how many different areas you have to click to create a larger board; it' very time consuming to make multiple cards at once.

Organization for high school students goals in applying to colleges.

The colours are nice I suppose. I like blue.

I tried but was never was able to figure out what Trello was trying to do, or who would want to organise a project with it.

I am part of a project being run by a national NGO. They are using Trello to keep our advisory board updated on progress. To me it's a hot mess of confusing, non-interactive, post-it notes and I've never understood its utility. Also, the categories below do not fit - I work at a university, and use Trello as an advisor to a large NGO. None of the categories fit.

Honestly, I didn't like anything about it. It wasn't very intuitive to use and ended up stop using it within a few months. Perhaps the point of making things simple, you overdid it. The interface was just horrid.

It was a confusing interface. It was hard to locate items that I had saved/shared. You'd make a list, share it and you couldn't clearly see what you were searching for.

Sharing - colabs with fellow co-workers, can be used on the web mainly. I"m sure it's an app too but hated the desktop version so I never bothered with the app. No benefits, only utter frustrations.

I like the easy to view site. In regards to the actual webpage, it’s clean and seems simple enough.

I have had continual issues with failed downloads. The have a messenger feature to chat for help but it typically takes a while for a response and the responses have never solved my issue or been that helpful.

Transcribing voxer messages

It is incredibly helpful to be able to visualize my goals, and see my coworkers goals as well, it really helps keep us all on track and in touch with eachother.

I dislike that I don't understand it enough to use it to it's fullest potential. Obviously this is my fault, and I really need to get trained on it better.

Disorganization and forgetting tasks. I am now able to enter in my tasks, create checklists and in this way make sure important things are not falling through the cracks.

Trello allows me to see what others are working on and let others know what i'm working on. The push/pull dynamic suits my needs.

There's no chat function. I have to use slack on top of this.

The platform is great when I am working with a team with lots of moving pieces.

I like that tiu can customize the dashboards and organize them however youd like.

It doesn’t send you notifications when someone on your team finishes their task so you can start yours, etc. or at least i couldnt figure out how to set up email notifications.

We were trying to streamline our marketing processes- sknce the company is growing we want everyone in the dept. to be on the same oage and working efficiently.

Trello is project management tools - good to get an overview of your projects & the stages they are in

Bad user interface - it looks ugly and the user interface should be improved

project management.

Assessed use of Trello for internal communications with a project team, but ultimately we decided not to adopt.

With any product or project tool, the key for me is whether or not it integrates seamlessly into the workflow of all people who need to be involved. Trello didn't do that for us, which is why we opted to go in a different direction.

Trello has a useful set of features and functionality, but for our team it was much more convenient to use a combination of Slack and Google Docs.

I liked being able to talk via the comments section and track the progress of a project. It was useful when there were many sections in a project production to be able to open this program and see exactly where and how it is.

I felt that this was a micromanaging program gone mad. We had to many subsections and people added to simple projects. Having worked with and without the software it felt like double the work to input that I had completed the job, upload a file, pass the job to the next section of production, There had to be an easier way.

Right now we use Trello for content production. As we have teams in our e learning department that are in charge of visualisation, author department, testing etc we use this software to pass the job to different stages of production and alert the respective person who will continue on to the next stage of production.

Nothing. I do not like using it. Ugly, not well-organised

just about everything: aesthetics, usability too limited no real chat function not by projects - cards aren't projects- usually parts of projects so it's all a mish mash

I interface with my VA - she uses this or I would never choose Trello.

This is not applicable as i did not have the security that was required by any working individual or company.

Trello does not have a privacy and security policy for its users. I use trello for more than a year. I had a board that i closed so that i can figure out some issues that was at hand. Regardless, it allowed members from my board to access the board and take down all of my information. Privacy of the work information on tello is a hoax. They let other people access the board where you are an admin even though it was closed by the admin. Please be careful while using the trello for organisation purposes as it is 0% secure.

0 Privacy and security

I do not really like anything about Trello. :( It may just be a matter of personal taste, it was never convenient to me. No hard feelings!

The fact that everything seems so complicated on an application which is supposed to be used for co-ordination

We use it for assigning certain daily tasks mostly.

It's easy to collaborate on but that's really about it.

The look of it isn't great, the layout isn't very user-friendly and generally, it's poorly laid out.

It's helpful purely in the context of collaborating on projects.

It's nice to have all of your unique project responsibilities laid out visually on a "card."

Multiple team member comments become overwhelming.

It has done a decent job of helping our distributed team keep track of our individual roles.
