Keeps requests better organized
The best feature Trello offers is that it keeps things better organized, so it makes things easier to collaborate with people. I can say that I really enjoyed using Trello for a lot of things, and it has some really good features, such as helping people write out descriptions and the comment section being absolutely one of the best parts of it.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The primary uses for this tool are task delegation, generating reports, and on-time invoices."
"It increased productivity and timely delivery of projects within a set budget."
"Real-time collaboration, invoice generation, task delegation, and file management features have become valuable features for our organization."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that it is easy to use and flexible while offering the ease of use of drag-and-drop functionality for each task."
"The installation was extremely straightforward."
"I like Trello's speed. It is more user-friendly compared to Jira. Jira is technical, whereas the management can use Trello."
"Just being able to manage tasks very easily is one of the best features Trello offers."
"Trello is not as complex as most of the other products are."
"The product helps with the management of projects."
"Trello definitely saves time and makes things a lot easier, except when it's buggy."
"From what I see, I think it actually pretty much exceeded our expectations or at least met all of our expectations regarding task management and sprint management."
 

Cons

"The timely reminders could be reduced from one mail a day to three mails in a week. This tends to fill up our inboxes a lot."
"The timely reminders could be reduced from one mail a day to three mails in a week."
"It is hard to track completed requests and show performance based on closed cards."
"There aren't as many tracking tools."
"It could have a bit more customization, especially for organizations that may want to integrate it into their own systems."
"Although it has many useful features, the one thing I don't like about Trello is that it constantly sends out unimportant notifications."
"Trello could add an analytic tool that allows me to see the performance of each team member, answering questions like whether they meet the deadline or miss the deadline."
"If there are pre-done templates or suggested templates for various fields, they would be helpful for me as a coach."
"In the card area, you should not be able to modify so easily what is already written, as this can cause loss of information."
"Users should be able to log their time against the tasks and visual reports should be available in Trello for time spent."
