Nuclino vs. Planview AgilePlace

Nuclino is suitable for just about any company. It is intuitive and helps keep any company organized.

This tool enables the visual management needed in many offshore teams to easily and quickly see the pending work, work in progress and completed work.For teams that work with a waterfall methodology and do not have AGILE internalized, I believe there are other solutions from Planview or other providers.

• Workspaces are helpful to segment information.
• Being able to download files directly from Nuclino is useful.
• Having the ability to link to external docs is useful.

• Ability to color code cards based on type, giving better visibility to the variety of tasks a team handles
• Ability to set deadline dates and have those dates easily visible
• Flexibility in design the kanban board. It is easy to add a lane or make a change on the fly. Work doesn't have to stop and a long process created to make simple layout changes.
• Movement of cards is easy as well as the ability to connect cards to show dependencies.

• No real offline use is possible.
• For small teams it's ok, but pricing is too high if lots of employees need to work with it.

• Planview LeanKit currently can't or should not be used as a central spot for data and collaboration. Particularly attachments are not well-handled.
• The portable side of Planview LeanKit is really lacking.
• We would appreciate some options to group or stack cards.

I love Nuclino's usability. The layout is clean, simple, easy to follow, and bright. I like that there is a read-only account option so that less-tech savvy people can still use it and they won't need to worry about deleting key information from the database. Similarly, I like the features that allow multiple contributors to have the same features to edit.

LeanKit isn't the best designed Kanban system I've seen, but overall it's pretty usable. The boards I've used are pretty complex, so it can be difficult to find things. I found that searching and filtering for specific cards was somewhat of a challenge. Dragging a card from one lane to another is kind of a fun way to get things done though.

The Nuclino knowledge base is good. Most answers to your questions can be found there. I didn't need to contact support at all.

Nuclino is the clear winner when it comes to ease of use for both the administrator and user. Less setup time and less "training" time. The streamlined interface is quick and intuitive to learn and is not cluttered as compared to Confluence. Every tool you need to use to create a page or administer the workspace is available immediately on screen or by right-clicking. In contrast, Confluence buries many tools in administrative interfaces and only allows use of some features once you make several clicks to include a "macro" or "plug-in". We use both tools and I get complaints constantly from my team about how complicated Confluence can get just to author a quick page.

I think that LeanKit is very similar to Asana's Kanban feature and Trello, but is much less sleek looking than Asana. Asana's clean and sleek UI makes me enjoy project management much more than LeanKit. It might sound silly that the UI makes so much of a difference to me, but it really does. Trello is also sleeker than LeanKit, but I still prefer Asana because it has more customization options and a better interface. We are actually going to look into switching to ClickUp because we wanted something with a better UI. ClickUp seems to have a great UI with a lot of customization options.

Good use cases for small/large teams

• Documentation has become streamlined

• Our team meetings are more direct and quick to get through thanks to the better visibility of the workload
• Easily being able to move cards between team lanes gives instant visibility to where the responsibility for the next step is needed.
