Orangescrum vs. TaskRay

This is a good thing for medium/large companies for inside the company and/or for interacting with remote employees/freelancers. As the program facilitates the interaction between employees and managers it speeds up the distribution of tasks and allows managers to identify possible problems on the fly. For indie developers - it's a little expensive.

TaskRay is a great solution for small to medium sized businesses running multiple projects at the same time. It is very cost effective and their development team is actively adding new functionality regularly. If you prefer working from a tiled Kanban board view, this is highly worth evaluating.

• We tested the free version of the program. It improved communication within the team.
• Allowed to trace performance and time spent on tasks. Each team member was aware of the status of the tasks and could plan their work.
• Simplified interaction with managers, as it could present the results in the form of Gantt charts.

Incentivized

• Onboarding Templates
• Scheduling Onboarding tasks and assignments to client and employees
• Creating project logs so that everyone knows what is being worked on

Incentivized

• The program interface is overloaded. Especially when there is little time for a detailed description of the tasks.
• I would like a faster way to publish the result at the completion of the task.
• Projects and tasks are two different workspaces/pages. Personally, it would be more convenient to combine these things.

Incentivized

• Unfortunately TaskRay does not allow us to share templates externally with customers.
• We have employees all over the world and we don't think TaskRay will support other languages such as Japanese. Note, I am speaking with a sales rep next week to confirm this, so we may be incorrect.

It's hands-down the best PM tool we have ever used. Nothing compares in ease of use and being easy to learn. It also looks great and makes sense immediately

I have not had many support issues but when I have, they have been courteous helpful, and solved the issue

Again, just like the app, the implementation was very easy.

Trello was excellent, but we did not choose it because of the price and relatively positive feedback from employees using Orangescrum who wanted the easiest and fastest way to create reports so as not to be distracted from work (as a two-click report).

We are still in our year long evaluation process. But TaskRay has been the easiest, and most successfully adopted tool so far. Even if we do not end up choosing TaskRay, I do not regret implementing the system or the experience working with the team at TaskRay. The only reason we may not end up going with TaskRay is lack of templates and slightly stunted reporting features (this is mainly due to Salesforce limitations). Our organization is growing so quickly, we need to consider tools that are better able to regiment processes in a larger group of Customer Service Representatives and give management more detailed insight into those activities.

• It accelerated the work of the team, but the mastering of the program interface was slow.
• The interface is not intuitive. It proved to be quite complicated.
• For managers, the program has facilitated reporting and streamlined team tracking.

Incentivized

• It was highly effective in organizing projects and sprints.
• Time cards were easy to manage.
• TaskRay's integration with Salesforce is a huge win as well as you can leverage workflows, approval processes, and alert notifications.
