There is no shortage of tools to optimize project management. There are no fewer than a hundred applications or software on the market to optimize the organization and monitoring of a project. Which of these toolsmartechchoose to accompany you?
Without reviewing all the solutions on the market, we will instead make a comparison between a well-established giant, Trello, and a newcomer, Xekut.
Trello vs. Xekut
Trello, the ultimate project management tool
Trello is a powerful free project management tool. It has the advantage of being accessible directly online, without any installation on the user side: a simple Internet connection is enough.
The tool has become commonplace in particular thanks to its ease canada mobile database of use and intuitive ergonomics. Everything is based on a logic of "cards" or "cards", governed by a drag and drop system.

An overview of how Trello works
You can thus create different “cards”, which correspond to a very specific mission, and designate labels by colors such as “in progress”, “completed”, etc. Trello also allows you to assign missions to specific people using the mention function. To have an overview of the content of the missions, it is possible to “attach” reference documents to the corresponding cards. The entire team involved in the project thus has an overview of the missions in progress and an overall view of the progress of the project.
We can therefore see that Trello's features are relatively simple and allow precise monitoring of the project without complicating the process. However, some essential elements for the proper conduct of a project are missing ; in particular a dated follow-up (by calendar or by time quantification), and especially the original document which lists the different parties involved in a project, all the missions to be carried out for each of them, their planning and the nature of the finished product. I am of course referring to a document such as a contract, or a brief, depending on the nature of the project.
It's true that Trello isn't the only one to suffer from some imperfections: most project management tools don't take into account the initial contract that governs the entire project , which can not only disrupt its smooth running, but also, sometimes, sow discord between the parties involved.
This is why we have chosen for this comparison to present to you a newcomer on the project monitoring tool market, Xekut, which seems to compensate for the shortcomings and deficiencies of its peers.
