"Best up-and-coming project collaboration and task management platform for SCRUM and AGILE"

4.5/5

What do you dislike about Favro?

Some aspects are very early in their development (Favro-desktop-app doesn't open Favro-online-links, no report-functionality, not a detailed audit log or card history function) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Favro:

If you look for a quick, simple and engaging way to plan your tasks or manage your project team, then this is the tool for you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Favro solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used Pivotal Tracker before, which was way too complicated and with way too many smaller functions, which one gets lost in Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing workflow and open roadmap"

5/5

What do you like best about Favro?

Favro is agile focused planning tool, from lists, to kanban and timelines it enables and help teams collaborate and manage workflows. The most unique feature is the ability to set workflow rules within kanbans and various automations possibilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Favro?

It is still challenging to work dependencies and conversations between groups. Also there are few options of repeatable templates workflows and day to day use such as finance and operations workflows, not likely to work on agile methodology but it would be great to have something on the map.

"The best work management tool"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Favro?

Favro is unique, as far as I know, in that their interface has separate containers for tasks, called Backlogs, and workflows, called Boards. Backlogs are great for organizing batches of tasks and keeping those separate from the workflow on boards. This means we can pre-plan a load of things that need to get done and separate them by type and then developers can grab cards from the backlog to be placed in the workflow boards. Favro is also highly flexible allowing different companies and even teams to change the way they set up and present their workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Favro?

They are based in Sweden, so sometimes have to wait for a half day for a response from their agents. However, they are all super-helpful, so it's still better response than many other products I've used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good visuals, functions and support!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Favro?

Favro has user-friendly card visuals that are easy to understand for all disciplines in our teams. It has a good set of functions. They keep improving and adding more functions by listening to what users want. They have very good customer support and fix bugs and issues after we report them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Favro?

When the projects get bigger, we need to design a really good structure holding all the info. When there are a lot of boards and cards in one collection, the loading time can get longer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are glad you like our solution! Regarding significant project handling - we recently released our most extensive change in 2021 - Favro Relations and Agile dependencies, and I think that would help you out not to get lost in all those tasks :) Also, we are planning some short (30 minutes) Mini-Summits around the tasks management - how to keep increasing value and not burnout.
