Pros

Great for supporting SCRUM as part of Agile deliveries. We use the ToDo, Doing and Done and build GANNT charts to facilitate resource planning.
We use it at a department level to manage workloads and help staff know what work is waiting for them and the relative priority.
We have deployed it across the organisation and also work with suppliers and offshore development teams to coordinate activities.

Cons

Occasionally hangs at login but this may be to do with our authentication service.
It would be nice when grouping cards together if there was an option to lay them over each other in a fan arrangement.

Return on Investment

We have seen great value in our planning for Agile deliveries especially when applying it to SCRUM.
Using the product we have found it quickly surfaces resource constraints and blockers when planning for projects.
