Considered Both Products	Evernote Kelsi Nuttle Accounting Project Manager in Finance and Accounting at Southern Veterinary Partners (Veterinary, 5001-10,000 employees) Chose Evernote Honestly, Trello is my favorite now that I've been using it, but Evernote is a strong close contender. It is an easy to use program and has premium features for a price. I think that there are now really good competitors in the market and they should ensure that they are able … Incentivized Helpful? Sam Goodwin President of HOCOA San Diego in Customer Service at Home Repair Network San Diego by HOCOA (Consumer Services, 1-10 employees) Chose Evernote I really don't use Trello anymore. I found it to be cumbersome and not really useful, other than messaging back and forth to fellow users. Incentivized Helpful? Joel McAfee Producer in Professional Services at lilDRAGON (Media Production, 1-10 employees) Chose Evernote Compared to the other applications I've used to make notes, Evernote has more built-in features and versatility made specifically for making notes and organizing them. Rather than using documents and keeping up with your finder organization, you can do that all within one app. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Evernote Evernote is not a great cloud drive or to-do list tool. However, Evernote allows one to organize resources in a way none of the other tools do. I can search in Evernote based on tags which is something I cannot do in a cloud drive (at least not that I know). This is important … Incentivized Helpful? John Readwin Digital Life Coach in Information Technology at Just Call John (Computer Software, 1-10 employees) Chose Evernote Much more flexible and full-featured, although the latest version of notes has gotten much better. Evernote supports tags, multiple notebooks, and the sharing of notebooks. Incentivized Helpful?	Atlassian Sarah Meerschaert Business Operations Manager in Product Management at Billtrust (Financial Services, 501-1000 employees) Chose Trello Todoist - There's good functionality here but you really need the paid version to get the most out of it. This isn't set up for kanban. Remember the Milk is really for personal lists. Evernote - This is incredibly free form. I loved it at first but honestly, you can just use a … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Trello Trello simply does what the others cannot. Todoist just lumped all of my tasks together and it didn't have an organized and cohesive flow, and Evernote really only did well as a note-taking application. Trello was able to cohesively put all of my projects and tasks in an … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Trello Evernote stores documents but donest help us manage workflows and delegate tasks like trello. Trello really helps us move agenda items along which we couldn't do in Evernote Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Trello The impact of knowledge sharing is drastically increased among teammates after using Trello. [It is a] one-stop go-to place for my teammates for finding required information to solve issues. Incentivized Helpful? Roberto Antonio Costinho Sosa Senior Software Engineer in Information Technology at Marketing - Brasil Crachás (Market Research, 11-50 employees) Chose Trello Trello is very easy to use. It is an intuitive software that does not require prior learning to take advantage of it. Asana has a complicated interface, not very intuitive and difficult to use. Trello has an intuitive interface that I like very much. Compared to other … Incentivized Helpful? Jared DeLong Onboarding & Services Manager in Customer Service at Kindful (Computer Software, 11-50 employees) Chose Trello monday.com is by far my favorite project management tool out there. It's so powerful, customizable and the reporting is great. Trello works better for us currently because it's free. Asana is okay, but the overall UI is a bit confusing and boring. Airtable is good, but pales in … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Trello I like Trello because it is simple and easy to use. I also like that the free version can do what I need it to do. Other options, such as LeanKit, JIRA, and ServiceNow are expensive and complicated. Trello does what I need it to do without being overly complicated. JIRA and Serv… Incentivized Helpful? Adriano Rosa Programmer in Information Technology at Alcoa Inc (Mining & Metals, 10,001+ employees) Chose Trello Trello is by far the easiest to use and get the whole idea of things. It helps a lot to track and organize ideas. The only thing is that it lacks some robust features for a larger number of teams. Incentivized Helpful? Evan Jaffe Sr. Product Designer at Four Winds Interactive (Computer Software, 201-500 employees) Chose Trello Trello by far has the easiest interface to use and understand. The 'no-frills' approach compared to other tools makes this a clear winner in the realm of tracking and organizing ideas. Where it lacks in more robust features found in other software, it makes up for in an … Incentivized Helpful? Richard Molina Java Software Developer in Professional Services at SOAINT (Internet, 501-1000 employees) Chose Trello Trello is the most intuitive tool I have ever known. I only used it for 15 minutes and I knew how to manage the basics of the board and the options. Incentivized Helpful? Michael Burke Operations Manager at Man Made Music (Music, 11-50 employees) Chose Trello All of the other alternatives honestly seem low quality and just discount versions of Trello. They're essentially trying to copy what Trello has already nearly perfected, or add additional features that bloat the functionality. Trello is an established company, where I feel if … Incentivized Helpful? Andy Ryan Video Marketing Strategist \| Speaker \| Consultant in Marketing at S A Ryan LLC (Marketing and Advertising, 1-10 employees) Chose Trello Trello is by far the most advanced and integrated program out there in the task management sector. Trello does what Basecamp and dapulse do and way more. Trello is great for teams that don't work right next to each other in an office. It's the best for virtual teams and offices. Incentivized Helpful? Claudio Fernando Maciel Sr. Software Developer in Research & Development at CONSLOG - Construction Software (Information Technology and Services, 1-10 employees) Chose Trello Trello provides a simpler hands-on way to get tasks/goals tracked. JIRA's a great tool, but lacks simplicity and that cannot be beaten. Incentivized Helpful? Jacob Carlisle Manager of Customer Experience at Bluehost Inc (Information Technology and Services, 501-1000 employees) Chose Trello Trello is sort of a David vs. Goliath story when comparing it to the Atlasian suite of tools. JIRA and Confluence are feature rich and have all sorts of tools, features, add-ons and flexibility. However they are slow, have a steep learning curve and can be a bit overwhelming. … Incentivized Helpful? Angelina Altobano Graphic Designer in Social Media at Ayzenberg (Marketing and Advertising, 51-200 employees) Chose Trello Trello is an all-in-one communication/file transfer/project management system. It's fresh, intuitive, easy to learn, and beautifully designed. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Trello Trello was easier to use for some team members than Basecamp, and the feature set (save the Notes feature in Basecamp) was similar. More customization was required for some things in Trello, however, and it did not send out emails in the same way Basecamp did (where a thread of … Incentivized Helpful? Raylene Wall Owner in Social Media at Off the Wall Social Media Management (Marketing and Advertising, 1-10 employees) Chose Trello Google Docs is ok for sharing items/documents/files with your team, but the interface is clunky to me. It's hard to know right off which things are connected to what project and to each other. Also, assigning tasks to team members is not possible directly (not that I know of).
