What's a good tool for Project Management?
I work with multiple software teams and they're all using different tools for project management. I'm curious what project management tool people prefer, and why.

- Mike Coutermarsh72Code @ GitHub · WrittenI love Trello. Kanban works well for me. It's also so simple anyone can figure out how to use it quickly. Plus very customizable + so it works for more advanced usecases as well.Kunal Bhatia50Co-founder & Design Lead @SlidesUp · WrittenTrello is really great. I'm currently using it to collaborate with a few freelancers on a project. Easy to setup and it's free for the basics, which is all we need!Frederik Waller3Product @ N26 · WrittenI love Trello because it is so simple, yet effective. You can manage basically any project with Trello and share access to your boards with clients (with several different permission settings available).
- Kunal Bhatia50Co-founder & Design Lead @SlidesUp · WrittenI love the design of Asana. This is definitely a strong contender and also comes with a free option. It makes me want to do a better job of managing projects, and people around me feel the same. I used to dread using JIRA, but came to like it more with Confluence tied directly. I'm leaning toward Asana for any new long-term projects I work on.Dettrich Balázs3A productivity enthusiast · WrittenThough I recommended two other tools as well, Asana is my choice when it comes to task and project management. The free version comes with sharing with up to 15 people, unlimited tasks, sub-tasks, projects, some customization as well. With the premium you get a couple extra features, but I never missed them.Stanislav DimitrovMarketing manager · WrittenAsana is absolutely great! Been using it for the past couple of years and it does the job perfectly.
- Dettrich Balázs3A productivity enthusiast · EditedZenkit is a great free option for individuals and small groups. It can represent your tasks in different views: list, kanban, calendar, mindmap... whatever works for you the best. And with custom fields you can do magical things.Easy to switch between spreadsheet/row and trello/kanban view, even to mindmaps and (soon) Gantt charts. This is Trello's natural successor.
- Caitlin BolnickStudent & Innovator · WrittenIts super robust and I know it sometimes gets a bad rap, but as a PM its by far the most flexible and familiar software for prod/dev teams.Théo BlochetProduct Guy. Currently @GetQonto · WrittenJIRA's the worst, but also the best. I've tried Pivotal Tracker, and also had to use Trello/Git Issues in some teams - yet I keep coming back to JIRA. Once customized, it really saves a ton of time defining stories and planning sprints.Basil AbbasFounder and CTO, https://clockit.io · WrittenHand down the best for software development. Has a slight learning curve but is super powerful and effective in managing software projects.

- Antoine GadaudBusiness Developer, Symbiosys · WrittenBasecamp is a reference for small businesses. Our web and mobile development team uses it for projects, and we're very satisfied!I can second this. We run our entire business through Basecamp now. The "Work Can Wait" mindset and features have been useful for helping our team slow down, think, and respond.Jesse OrndorffArticly.me - Automated Blog Writing · WrittenWe've lived off of Basecamp for the last six years, easy to use, and perfect for working with clients.
- Dettrich Balázs3A productivity enthusiast · EditedThis is not explicitly a project management tool, however it's flexibility allows you to build your own - and with ease. Think of it as spreadsheet view of your tasks with database functionalities and a lot of flexibility.

- Aleksandar OlicProduct Marketing · WrittenThis tool has a ton of functionality, yet it's simple to use. You can manage your whole company from one place, from task management to invoicing based on tracked time. Also, great design. 🙌Really love the way you're able to have multiple project views and a great overview of all the activities. Essential for tracking time, workload and expenses.
- Kevin SuttleProfessional nobody · WrittenIt's no longer just for programmers. Product managers, legal teams, content strategists, UI designers—there's enough for everyone, without feeling overwhelming.Because it's integrated with your code base. If you're developer or PM - it's a good place to manage tasks, issues, deadlines, releases.
- Andres GutierrezFullStack developer at FactorialHR · WrittenOur company uses Redbooth every day to plan projects in our marketing and product development teams. It fits perfect in our stack and keeps all of our work organised and on track.Mà xim CollsProduct Manager @ Redbooth · WrittenRedbooth is an intuitive task and project management software that gets teams organized and keeps projects on track.
- Roman Annenkov5Product manager · WrittenThere's no need for PM tool to be huge and monstrous. What makes Planyway useful is its easy-to-use UI, in combination with all known Trello benefits. It pushes the boundaries of any already used calendar and makes easier their integration with each other through the Trello UI. Dragging inside calendar is pretty handy, though it's full of hidden opportunities. PM has a plenty of tools and views to make the team be focused at work, not at spending the valuable time in studying complex apps.

Packed with features and yet still easy to use. Using it with their help desk software is s great combo
- Sendtask is our team's task manager. It's super clean and easy to use. At the same time, you can customize it and track large projects with hundreds of tasks. I like the "no accounts" feature meaning you can work with anyone in Sendtask - even if they don't register. Also, I send notes from Evernote and email all the time and Sendtask turns them into actionable tasks with due dates, projects, comments, the ability to assign them etc.
- Iryna Maniuk6Marketing manager · WrittenKind of Jira-Trello combo but with a broader functionality and muuuuch easier to use. Love it for managing multiple teams and projects! It's also budget-friendly: free for individuals and teams up to 5 people (+ a free trial for everyone)Kate KrivosheinaMarketing Lead at Atlaz.io · WrittenKate Krivosheina made this productAtlaz is the complete project management platform for Agile teams. From dashboards, tasks and checklists to communication, reporting, time and progress tracking, Atlaz has everything a team needs to move the project forward.Torben Simon MeierFounder & CMO, RAIDBOXES · WrittenIts still after beta but much better as just Trello to manage your projects in teams. We use it in our startup (RAIDBOXES) to make 14-day sprints and Kanban. Just perfect with some little bugs but they fixed every time from the makers very fast!
- Martin VelkovskiMarketing · WrittenWorkstreams is a great solution, especially for teams living in Slack, with very-easy-to-adopt Kanban principles. The unique and thought-through integration with Slack ensures your team never misses a great idea. Would consider Workstreams for sure, if you're looking for a no-fuss, no overhead project management solution
