Curious to see who uses these above for product and dev management, and what has worked for you?

I've used GitLab in previous startup, I've had great experience managing multiple teams and multiple projects through it.
It's label-based organization which enables you to have multiple processes around same issues.
It also has built-in ticketing system for support and incident tickets. Communication with clients is native, you write a comment they receive an email.
Overall it had everything we needed in one tool 😄
Haven't used Jetbrains, but to me, Jira and Trello are in completely different categories and do not compete at all.
Trello is awesome for individuals and really small teams that want to run fast, but I haven't heard of any teams over 5 that actually use it for sprint MGMT. It's just missing too many things.
@guy_barner makes sense. Jet brains is crazy and its a free tool. Might want to check it out!
I'm personally using ora.pm it allows to aggregate several trello boards on a single timeline.
@fabian_maume interesting. thanks for that tip!!! How big is your company (or how many employees do you have)?
@nicole_ogloza 2 full time & 3 part time contractors.
These three software platforms excel at what they do and may be used in a variety of situations. Trello, for example, is fantastic for organizing everything that has to be completed, whether it's a business project or a personal one. JetBrains is the ultimate crowd-sourced product development platform, and Jira is fantastic for adding prioritization to tasks.
I love Trello, but right now we are currently using a management software called Shortcut (app.shortcut.com). I actually really like Shortcut as well as it gets the job done and also integrates very well with Slack.
@taliambender ooo slack integration. Thanks for the tip!
Best in a small team : Trello with Drive and Slack integrations
Best in medium or large teams : Jira with many other Altlassian tools integrations!
I've voted for "other?" as I'm using Zenkit (https://zenkit.com/) for years now. It all started with just one App for Project / Product management and over the years the team added more amazing products to their suite.
The latest release was Zenforms and it ended up as product of the day on producthunt: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
With seperate apps for note-taking, forms, projects and to-do lists, all in one suite, I'm able to excecute any kind of tasks in my business while I don't have to switch between different softwares to get the job done.
It's definitely worth to check out 🙂
