★★★★★ Paid for itself in the first month
Zero training needed. We switched from spreadsheets and the team picked it up quickly.
Liked: Cheap paid tier Disliked: No Gantt or dependencies
★★★★☆ Solid, with a couple of gaps
Does the core job well. Works great on phones. The main thing I'd change: weak reporting.
Liked: Works great on phones Disliked: Weak reporting
★★★☆☆ Good, but check pricing first
It works, but gets messy past ~200 cards, which surprised us at renewal.
