Trello
RecommendedThe original kanban board. Simple, visual, and still great for straightforward projects.
Trello is still the best tool for teams that just need a board to track work. Its simplicity is a feature, not a limitation. Butler automation adds surprising power under the hood. If your projects are straightforward and your team hates complicated tools, Trello is perfect.
