In TrustRadius reviews, Trello is primarily utilized for task and project organization, enabling teams and individuals to manage daily tasks, track progress, and coordinate efforts, especially in distributed or complex project environments. Reviewers widely praise its robust capabilities in structuring work, task prioritization, and fostering collaboration, noting its intuitive design and user-friendly interface. Many leverage its customization options to tailor boards, leading to enhanced organizational efficiency for 10 reviewers.

However, some reviewers report limitations in reporting and analytics, often necessitating external extensions. Challenges also arise with managing extensive task lists within single columns, which can become visually overwhelming. Reviewers occasionally experienced performance issues and desire more granular notification controls and diverse board formatting options. Despite these points, the overall sentiment indicates Trello effectively streamlines workflows.

Trello from an HR / business standpoint

Rating: 9 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Trello is used at all levels, and in numerous departments at my company. By allowing multiple users to share boards with each other - in real time, project tasks and meeting agendas can be continually updated. Some departments manage their staff meeting agendas with Trello; others use it for their check lists (think onboarding new employees or project tasks). I've also seen it manage special (non business) projects - like managing volunteers, supplies, and time slots for an extracurricular activity.

Pros

  • Real Time Updates - All viewers of a board are able to get updates when a change is made. Very helpful if a meeting agenda changes last minute - or a team member completes a project task that you were just about to dive into.
  • Insert Files - its so easy to insert external files (Word Docs / PDFs / Excel; etc) into a Trello board.
  • Ease of Use- since Trello is used so widely across my company, being easy to use / understand is critical. We have to train individuals on numerous things, but for Trello - its usually just a log in and quick once over before someone is up to speed.

Cons

  • Trello Gold - Doesnt seem to bring any value to me (and maybe I am missing something big here - but... ) Adding stickers or changing backgrounds is not of importance to me... Even if I am in it every day.

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited for individuals looking to have 'check lists' online and accessible from multiple devices.
For people who are paranoid and always want to archive their information - without wasting device space ;)
For teams who need real time updates
For teams working together on a project(s) - where many pieces are moving at the same time.
For HR teams (or managers) tracking onboarding activities
