Oh man, that’s awesome!
I’m currently using Trello and Google calendar for most things. All online. Since I often do planning work when I’m out and only have access to my laptop, I need everything to be synced between systems.
Trello is good, due to its ease of use with drag and drop. However, there are some things I miss.
My top five things:
- A calendar layout where you can set at start and end date for a task and it’ll paint a bar across all those dates so you know that’s what you’re supposed to be working on.
- Clear indications of what’s a dependency on what.
- Color coded calendar items so you know what project the item belongs to.
- A good way of indicating that a task is in progress.
- Needs a better overview of overall project status.
At the moment only use these softwares for general tasks like: Finish project X, create test asset for company Y, Research/Purchase software Z.
Project specific tasks like finish torches in zone 2, usually end up either in google sheets or in the software the client uses, like Jira.
