Pros

“I can set up boards per project, assign tasks to site managers, set deadlines, and add checklists for material procurement.”

Ricky S.

VP World Class Maintenance Maintenance and Reliability

“The ability to customize boards, add references, attach files, and collaborate with team members makes it easier to maintain a smooth workflow across different stages of product design.”

Braden H.

Senior Product Designer

“It helps create a structured workflow where engineers can track priorities, collaborate with teammates, and stay aligned with project goals. While it may not replace specialized engineering management platforms, Trello remains a reliable tool for managing everyday software development activities and improving team productivity.”

Vincenza F.

Software Engineer

Pros

“Its reporting capabilities provide valuable insights that support better planning and decision-making. Although it takes some time to learn all of its features, the benefits in efficiency, collaboration, and financial management make it a worthwhile investment for organizations managing multiple projects and resources.”

Premdeep K.

Project Designer

“I also appreciate the customization options, intuitive project collaboration tools, and the visibility it provides into budgets and forecasts, helping teams make more informed business decisions.”

Premdeep K.

Project Designer

“The platform makes it easy to track employee time accurately and efficiently, while the invoicing tools streamline billing and help ensure projects are billed correctly.”

Bailey B.

Office Manager

Cons

“The built-in facilities, like reporting and automations (Butler) are fine for basic tasks, but if you want to look at high-level portfolio views, resource allocation, or complex dependency mapping, Trello starts to feel a bit too lightweight.”

Mantesh C.

Assistant Digital Marketing Manager

“The built-in reporting options are fairly limited unless you rely on external Power-Ups. When projects grow massive, the boards can start to feel cluttered, and customer support response times can be slow on the standard tier.”

Shyam K.

Developer

“I was logged out frequently, and sometimes my email account was not recoverable. Since it is paired under the "Atlassian" brands, their customer service was unable to resolve my issue and I had to recreate accounts, boards, and projects.”

Kaleb V.

Clinic Director

Cons

“Because we had to fit our project identification and invoice numbering into Factor's configuration, our reporting from Quickbooks has been more difficult to compile and utilize. ”

Jeanie W.

Business Manager

“However, one limitation is that late fees applied within QuickBooks Online do not automatically flow back into the system, which requires manual tracking or adjustments.”

Tammie C.

Executive Business Manage and now Executive Assistant to CEO

“There are many reports available, however, some of the timeline reports are not editable and the print-out version isn't the best (to present to clients). ”

Noelle W.

Finance and Operations Manager
