yeah that's it. painful to use, plus they're trying to convince everyone that time tracking is the way to go.

It's probably more focused on software development, but it's very flexible and we are happy with it. It's simple and the Atlassian Marketplace has a ton of useful plugins that can make it even better. It's also very cheap for small teams (like $10 for 10 users). I can't really say enough good things about the entire Atlassian product line. Trello and Basecamp are good options in my opinion for project management.

I've had JIRA recommended to me by a few people, but it seems focused on software development. One of my partners asked us to check out Producteev and Planbox. Neither Planbox nor Producteev has responded to any of my inquiries. Producteev doesn't support templates (seems like a must-have) and hasn't had any blog or Twitter posts in nine months. Seems like a dead product. Otherwise, it seems to support rather simple projects just fine. Planbox does support templates, though the functionality seems broken. They seem to be active (other than a lack of response to direct inquiries), but also seems to require more complex projects with their four tiered approach. There are more project management platforms than wifi vendors, so I was hoping for some qualified leads. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com
