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.

Consistent capital project workflows have improved collaboration and real-time data use
In my opinion, the best features of Trimble Project Management are that it is quite good as a database and process, and it has been working well for us. The big challenge is on the reporting side; it does not provide great dashboards and that type of functionality. Using Trimble Project Management has made our project efficiency more efficient than not having it. It is a project management information system, so it is very important to have for our organization. Trimble Project Management's real-time data integration has been a valuable feature; we have a data warehouse that it sends information to, and we use Tableau to create dashboards.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The online collaboration and automated linking to our calendars improve productivity."
"The best feature Trello offers is that it keeps things better organized, so it makes things easier to collaborate with people."
"All the features are valuable but the data extraction is extremely helpful for automation."
"While Nasuni has a learning curve, it becomes user-friendly once mastered."
"There is a huge community to help us with the issues we face while using the product."
"The installation was extremely straightforward."
"Trello simplifies collaboration, reducing long email chains that are hard to follow."
"Another feature that impressed me is the clear Kanban board, as it provides a clear view of to-to tasks, assuring the team not to forget anything."
"Using Trimble Project Management has made our project efficiency more efficient than not having it."
 

Cons

"In the card area, you should not be able to modify so easily what is already written, as this can cause loss of information."
"Trello was a little complicated initially because we didn't know how to use it, create a product backlog, or define the work items."
"There doesn't seem to be a good way to organize a parent project, such as an epic card, and then have sub-cards."
"Trello has become complex over the years."
"It would be good if we could update the project status by email without logging into Trello."
"The solution could be priced cheaper."
"Being able to export reports from Trello, general reports, or board reports, would improve the solution for me as a manager."
"Trello does not provide you with as many functionalities as Jira and various third-party integrations provided by these different platforms."
"The reporting does exist, but it is not great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are using the open-source version of Trello."
"The solution pricing is okay. The pricing is subscription-based and depends on the features that you need. If you need more features then you will need to pay more. You can use the basic features to lead your project management."
"I am tinkering with the free version."
"The pricing starts from around $6 per license for a subscription, and there might be higher subscriptions available, possibly around $12 per month."
"I use the free version of Trello, which is sufficient for my day to day use."
"UiPath is cost-efficient."
"The product is cheap."
"We pay $10 per user per month for the product."
