What are the best project management softwares out there?

Basecamp is a highly used and often recommended product, but too be honest, I have found Asana to really handle the basics well. That said, if you are looking for something more robust with build in gannt charting etc, then I would not recommend it. It is a super simple solution however, that can be used by a vast array of skill sets, and can also be shared with clients so that they can monitor easily and comment on questions if needed. I am also looking to integrate it with SLACK for the purposes of increased communications, but quite honestly for a simple solution to managing tasks and project deadlines, assigning to various individuals and even forwarding emails straight into the system to add as a task, its a nice solution.

Hi Jeremy.

I understood your need in a better detail when I went to greggpartners.com; at first, there are several options, the best one will depend on the internal experience your people have; If there is someone or more team mates knowing the same platform, it will give you learning curve leverage.

Nonetheless, assuming you have solved the stage above, as per my consultant experience; some conversations with colleagues and the answers you have received, JIRA, Trello y Basecamp are user friendly, easy setting up and have the right tools to track schedules, tasks and deadlines.

All of them have very good teams working on improvements: particularly, Atlassian the guys behind JIRA are always innovating and releasing new features focused not only on IT but in cosultancy.

Make the best choice. Take care!

It Depends !!

I 've used multiple project management tools, including , but not restricted to , Basecamp, Ms. Project, Jira , Trello , VersionOne, RallyDev. I also used TFS and Sharepoint. Even excel and google docs.

Every option has pros and cons, depending on the type of team your are working with, type of project and industry , budget, technical literacy, project management literacy of both the team and the management, targets ( is this to manage a project or to do a massive change management ? ) and the management scheme used ( agile , cmmi, pmi , prince2 lean ..etc. )

There is no best project management tool .Your answer to the above will lead you to chose the most convenient one.

Good Luck !

Just seeing your post now - We use Insightly. It is a little $$$, but it is great as a CRM for lead and opportunity flow and project management and task management. We did use ASANA for a long time. However, it was missing the CRM element that we needed to round out the project management element.

There is several project management software that you have mentioned in your question. The priority order that I would designate is as follows:
1. Basecamp
2. Smartsheet
3. Project Manager
