PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Trello
Paid links. We earn a commission if you buy through links on this page. It never changes our ranking — see how we rank.
Pricing
We do not reprint prices. They change too often for that to be honest, and a number on our page with no date is worse than sending you to the source.
How we rated it
What it is
Kanban boards: cards in lists, moved across stages, with checklists, due dates and automation. Deliberately simple.
Who it is for
Small teams and individuals who need to see work move and do not want a system.
Where it is strongest
Simple, visible process. A board anyone understands in thirty seconds is worth more than a powerful tool nobody updates.
Where it falls short
Falls apart on anything with dependencies or many projects at once. Reporting is minimal. And the features that address this arrive through add-ons that recreate the complexity you avoided.
Our verdict
Recommended for simple workflows and small teams, where its limits are the point. Outgrowing it is normal and a sign to move, not to bolt things on.
Editorial assessment. We earn a commission on some links; it does not change the ranking.
