UpWave

One of the most user friendly task management tools out there!

Kommentarer: We were looking for a tool to keep a track of all our tasks and the person responsible for them. Now we are on top of our delevirables and we can even estimate how much time a simillar task would take in the future.

Fördelar:

The software is extremly easy to figure out and intuitive. Tasks can be assigned to an individual or to a team in a few clicks. Their neat UI with different color theme for tasks of different priority make it very easy to find the most pressing tasks first. We now have a much better idea of what our employees are spending their time on and their effeciency at completing tasks

Nackdelar:

The platform is quite simple and easy to use, and this is one of its strengths. However, it does lead to it missing out on features that are available with more established players like Asana.

Easy to use and powerful alternative for project managment & collaboration

Kommentarer: We use the product for day-to-day projects internally and towards clients across a wide variety of different project types. Upwave have preformed great in all areas where we have used it, and we are looking forward to the upcoming features as well.

Fördelar:

The flexibility to create all the boards that you like, and the ability to combine custom rows and columns makes the tool flexible and clean. Also, some great templates add to the impression as well

Nackdelar:

The lack of a GANTT-chart option and a portfolio overview solution is kind of limiting, but I know the team is working on this.

Inferior alternative to Trello

Kommentarer: My employer switched from Trello to Upwave when Trello decided to restrict the product's use of collaboration to an unsustainable pricing plan. This was a sad transition, as Trello was (and probably still is) a joy to use, but strongly impacted the main benefit of using it. The difference between Trello and Upwave was pretty evident immediately when I couldn't click-and-drag around the board as effortlessly. The keyboard shortcut of holding the space bar is not obvious, and it really should "just work". Then, there's the board rows. At first, the idea of a multi-axis board sounded great, but when I used it on a project, it quickly became a hard-to-navigate board full of empty space. This was especially evident when trying to conduct an Agile board with Upwave, something I quickly abandoned when it came time to set up a new sprint. There's a few smaller sources of frustration. Within cards, I also found the lack of tooling for rich text frustrating, and led me to the massively-complicated but extremely-capable Notion. I find the action of marking a card as "Complete" annoying, as there's usually a column for completed items, and this seems like a duplicated effort. In conclusion, I would absolutely only recommend Upwave as an alternative to Trello when the pricing hits hard. Otherwise, I wouldn't.

Fördelar:

Being able to silo information to specific items
