"Tracking your daily progress and achieving your goals one task at a time."
5/5
What do you like best about Trello?

I like being able to see exactly where I am in the workflow pipeline, and it also makes it easier to hold team members accountable. The intuitive UI and drag and drop feature makes it more fun, easy and fast to work with moving through the pipeline or leaving important notes. This makes the user experience more appealing.

What do you dislike about Trello?

At first it used to be the learning curve but once you get used to it, it's fairly easy and intuitive. Knowing how to create decent cards that shows all the needed information can take a little bit of exploring which honestly, isn't that much of a time but once you do, you'll create beautiful cards which makes completing your tasks much more fun. It's been way easier nowadays with new updates and features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Trello Keeps Projects Organized with a Simple, Visual Board"
5/5
What do you like best about Trello?

I’ve been using Trello for what feels like forever—for personal projects, professional tasks, and everything in between. It’s still the easiest way to see what everyone is working on without having to constantly ask for updates. I really like the board layout because it’s so visual: you can simply drag a card from “Doing” to “Done” and call it finished. It’s also one of the few tools I didn’t have to explain to my team; they just “got it” immediately. Overall, it never feels heavy or complicated, which makes it a great way to stay organized without the software getting in the way of the actual work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trello?

It starts to feel a bit messy once a project gets really big. When you’re dealing with hundreds of cards on a single board, it becomes hard to find what you’re looking for, and it doesn’t have the deeper reporting you get with larger tools. I also wish more of the "Power-Ups" were built-in features by default. Having to add a separate plugin just to get a simple calendar view or track time feels like an unnecessary extra step that really shouldn’t still be there in 2026.

"Simplifies Project Management, but Lacks Advanced Features"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Trello?

I like Trello's very simplistic and easy-to-use UI. It's easy to learn automations with Trello, and I was able to quickly teach other employees how to use the automations and build out boards. Trello is very intuitive software that allows for straightforward automation. The setup process was very easy and took very little time, which made the rollout go a lot quicker for our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trello?

I think the overall capabilities of Trello lack compared to other project management software. The file management specifically can get a little wonky, and having ownership within sub-tasks gets a bit difficult. It's also not conducive to larger projects, so for big projects, we prefer using something that's more like a spreadsheet format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Trello Makes Project Tracking Effortless with Visual Boards and Powerful Integrations"
4/5
What do you like best about Trello?

This visual board and card system of Trello makes project management so easy to use that our team can easily see the state of each task by looking at the board without having to spend hours in long status meetings. The drag-and-drop interface and workflow customization have simplified the process of departmental assignment and tracking of work. The Power-Ups functionality has been one of the most prominent additions, which links Trello to such tools as Slack, Google Drive, and Jira to have everything under one roof. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trello?

Complex projects may get limiting in Trello, because the simple board and card design do not have inbuilt Gantt charts, time tracking and extensive reporting without third party Power-Ups. Its free plan is also very limiting, with a limit on the number of Power-Ups and automations that can be used, a factor that propels expanding teams to subscriptions much faster than anticipated.

"Dead Simple, Visual, and Easy to Use: No Training Needed!"
4/5
What do you like best about Trello?

I like how dead simple and visual it is. You don’t need a tutorial or a training session to get started. We’re trying to become agile champions, and in one of our departments we have columns for pipeline activities, user story ideas, the tasks backlog, and sprint tasks. Being able to see everything at a glance: from raw ideas to what we’re actively working on, saves so much back and forth. Moving cards from the tasks backlog into sprint tasks feels like real progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trello?

Reporting is basically nonexistent.You cant see how many tasks were completed last week. With our board tracking pipelines activities, user story ideas and sprint tasks i'd love to see something simple like "how many cads moved from backlog to sprint this week or stuff Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Simple and Visual Tool for Managing Newsroom Workflows"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Trello?

What we value most about Trello is how it lets us visually organize workflows across different teams in the newsroom. With boards, lists, and cards, we can lay out tasks in a clear, intuitive structure, which makes it easy to see progress at a glance.

We rely on Trello for a range of workflows—editorial planning, SEO tasks, video production, recurring work, and other project-specific initiatives—each set up in its own dedicated board. This setup helps teams collaborate smoothly while still keeping shared priorities visible across the organization. Overall, its simplicity makes it approachable for both editorial and non-technical staff, which is essential in a fast-paced media environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trello?

While Trello is very intuitive to use, it can start to feel limiting when you’re managing more complex workflows or a large volume of tasks. As projects expand, boards can quickly become crowded, and it isn’t always easy to track dependencies or handle more advanced workflow needs in a clear, straightforward way.

Also, compared with more advanced project management tools, Trello doesn’t offer the same depth of reporting, automation, or workflow customization on its own. To get those capabilities, you typically have to rely on additional integrations or paid features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Trello Makes Our Agency Workflow Clear"
5/5
What do you like best about Trello?

Trello makes it easy to visualize our agency's entire workflow at a glance. The drag-and-drop cards keep project stages clear and organized for everyone on the team. It’s a straightforward way to track tasks without getting bogged down in complex menus. It just works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trello?

The boards can get pretty cluttered when a project scales up or has too many moving parts. I also find the notification system a bit overwhelming if you don't spend time fine-tuning it. It sometimes lacks the deeper reporting features we need for more complex agency data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly Boards That Keep Tasks Clear and Prioritized"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Trello?

Trello is a very user-friendly to-do list. The cards and boards provide ease of use and help the tasks be kept in various states like 'to do', 'in progress' and 'done'. It gives you a good visual outline of all of the tasks and helps the daily work be prioritized, as well as helping for team updates to be communicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trello?

Trello is not ideal for complex project management. There is no support for advanced reporting, dependency tracking, or extensive customization of workflows. When there are a lot of tasks boards can quickly become cluttered and unwieldy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, Smooth Kanban CRM"
4/5
What do you like best about Trello?

The UI is one of the easiest I’ve used for a Kanban workflow. It’s very simple to use as a CRM or as a task manager, and it doesn’t require much CPU compared to Monday.com, so it runs smoothly. Even the free version offers a lot of benefits. I use it as CRM and tracked clients in our company and their statuses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple Kanban Boards That Make Organizing and Collaboration Effortless"
5/5
What do you like best about Trello?

What I like best about Trello is its simplicity combined with flexibility. The drag-and-drop Kanban board system makes it incredibly easy to organize tasks visually—I can move cards between lists like “To Do,” “In Progress,” and “Done” in seconds, which saves a lot of time compared to traditional task tracking methods.

I also really value how customizable it is. I regularly use labels, due dates, and checklists within cards to break down complex tasks into smaller, manageable steps. This has improved my workflow significantly because everything is clearly structured and easy to track at a glance.

Another standout feature is how well it supports collaboration. Assigning tasks, adding comments, and attaching files all happen in one place, so there’s no need for constant back-and-forth across different tools. It keeps the entire team aligned and reduces miscommunication.

Overall, Trello helps me stay organized, prioritize work effectively, and manage projects more efficiently without feeling overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trello?

One drawback of Trello is its limited functionality for complex project management. While it works well for simple workflows, managing larger projects with dependencies, timelines, and detailed reporting can become difficult without relying heavily on Power-Ups. This also leads to another issue—many advanced features require paid plans, which can increase costs over time. Additionally, as boards grow, they can become cluttered and harder to navigate, reducing overall efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
