Cons	Open Source The design and user-interface are a little outdated. It looks like a product that was designed ten years ago and doesn't have a polished look and feel like newer apps have. It's not particularly designed to support agile-based project management methodologies such as Scrum. Incentivized Richard Davies Senior Web Application Developer Read full review
