Total opposite - tried alternatives and didn’t work out. I’m a dept lead so I’m managing 3 small teams that interact with 7 other teams.
Fuck Basecamp.
Asana is very spaghetti.
Trello is workable but for small team. And we already use trello-esque features in Jira.
I don’t understand the jira hate. But I don’t love it and won’t switch unless given a good reason. All the integrations like Confluence and ground level details like tracking commits/PRs and big picture organization… It works for me and my team.
