Trello is being used across the whole organization, to better label and prioritizes tasks. We actually integrate it within our company Slack, in order to get updates on tasks being done, as well as new tasks being updated on Trello by our admin. It allows our operations team to add new tasks automatically to our Slack channel to specific employees which immediately sends notifications to each employee. Also allows our employees to update us on their progress on tasks assigned.
  • Prioritizing tasks, using colour codes.
  • Drag and drop interface to move tasks along the progress funnel.
  • Integration with third party softwares to automate notifications to select employees.
Cons
  • Further integration with de-bugging tools for our dev team
  • Ability to notify certain employees for tasks that pertain to them only to remove clutter
  • Integration with Microsoft Project as well, as bizanalyst require more powerful tools
It's appropriate for general task delegation and prioritization. Very easy to use, and you don't have to be a "techy" to understand and use it effectively. Appropriate for small-medium sized businesses, but once you grow, you will want more powerful tools and analytics for tracking projects such as Microsoft Projects.

We used Trello last year for our marketing activities. It helped us organize our plan & tasks and communicate with our team.
  • Event planning
  • Tasks assigning
  • Team communication
Cons
  • Integration with other 3rd party platforms.
Trello is very easy and simple to get started. It's all web-based and it's easy to communicate with your team. However, after we moved to Hubspot it doesn't integrate with Trello, so we had to give up Trello. This is good for small organizations but I think if you are larger than 50 employees, you might want to find something more sophisticated that can have everything under one platform.

Would highly recommend this easy to use option

Trello is used company wide where I work. We have team boards and individual boards. We also have project boards. I find it very useful to organize all of the work within my division. It's easy to move cards around so you can keep up with all of the work and easily see and move everything in real time. We use the Scrum method and it fits in very seamlessly with this agile structure.
  • Easy to use and learn interface
  • A lot of capability to customize each card
  • Very easy to collaborate with a team, both internally and externally
Cons
  • Search feature
  • Notification system
It's well suited for agile project management systems. It's well suited for collaborative teams. If you subscribe to the whole Gantt chart method, Trello does offer that as an add-on to the cards, but I don't think it really lends itself to that style of project management. I think it's also great if you need to hit the ground running because the learning curve is basically non-existent.

Visually engaging, intuitive and easy-to-use project dashboard

Trello is currently used sporadically by a few departments in our organization. It is primarily used as collaboration tools to track activities in a project which involve members from a single department and/or member across different departments. It helps a lot in tracking activities and allocating resources to certain activities in a project and also as a tool for team coordination.
  • Web based delivery provides seamless access anywhere and anytime.
  • Intuitive and easy to use.
Cons
  • Semi-online features would be a game changer when there is no internet connection.
  • Upload size limitation makes it very hard to collaborate with large data.
Trello works well on organizing and coordinating small to medium projects involving team members working from virtual offices connected by public internet access. However, when there is limited or even no internet access then it becomes unusable. Moreover, when working with large scale projects Trello's dashboard becomes too cluttered which makes it very hard to manage.

Easy and fun to use

I use Trello to quickly keep track of the various projects and tasks that myself and my team are responsible for. It's solid on its own, but with certain power-ups I'm able to get even more insight into our current progress. I've found it to be much easier to explain to others and get them using versus most other project management tools.
  • Easy to use - Most people intuitively understand how to use it and understand the status of various tasks and projects.
  • Easy to visualize - I can quickly glance at our boards and understand the status of projects and what needs to happen next.
  • Affordable - It's well worth the price in terms of time saved versus other tools.
Cons
  • It can easily become a cluttered visual mess if you're not careful. I'd like to see some attachments handled differently to help this.
  • Some workflows take a few too many clicks. Nothing time consuming, but seconds add up over time.
  • There are a few quirks when using the desktop app along with power-ups. Very minor but would love to see them addressed.
If you don't require ridiculously detailed tracking of projects, Trello is a great solution. It can help from the very basic all the way to the fairly detailed. It's when you get into the ridiculously detailing project tracking needs that Trello simply won't help you. It's made for simplicity. I haven't run into any situations myself where Trello didn't help but given the tracking, some project teams do I know those situations are out there where it won't work.
