Features of Trello

Above we took a basic idea about Trello, but here we will discover some of the features of this project management tool. They include,

i) Trello uses the Kanban pattern for managing projects. This pattern was originally used by Toyota in the 1980s for supply chain management.

ii) Trello is a system of boards, lists and cards that allows for individuals or teams to track a project and team up or contribute where they can be most useful or where it is most needed.

iii) Users and boards can be grouped into organizations.

iv) Trello supports iPhone, Android and Windows 8 mobile platforms. However, its website has been designed to be accessible in most mobile web browsers.

Above we have used words like card, list and board. Maybe some of you would like to know about what these terms mean exactly, right?

So, take a look below where you can find a short description about all three terms.

(1) Board:

In Trello, usually the project or product that is under development or constantly being worked on known as the Board.

There are some specific members are on board who can see the board and control the creation and flow of cards between the lists.

The members of board can add themselves or others to cards, begin conversations with the cards, add attachments and create checklists.

(2) List:

A way to divide a board into different categories called list. Usually a List represents a stage of progress where you can check what to do, what is there in progress and what has been finished.

(3) Card:

The most basic and flexible part of the Trello system is card. The Card represents a specific aspect of a project or a product like a new feature, a software bug, research for a post etc.

Cards can be moved between lists as they progress through the project. You can attach images and files, assign members, comment, and add checklists, colored labels and deadlines to cards.

How to use Trello

As we mentioned earlier that Trello is basically a web page containing lists laid out horizontally on the page. Items within the lists called cards, can be dragged and dropped onto other lists or reordered within lists.

Individual cards themselves can contain checklists, images, attachments, deadline dates, colored labels, and discussion notes from others who share the board.

You can have as many boards as you want—one for "House Stuff," for example, one for "World Domination," and so on.

We normally stick labels like “To Do List”, “Doing”, “Done List” etc.  Same way Trello cards are like sticky notes you arrange on a board—that is, digital sticky notes that are searchable, shareable, and come with reminders.

Conclusion:

Whichever work or take you do, the result comes better if you done that task or work with proper management and well organization, right? You will be agreeing on this for sure because this is true. Trello system is basically a game of three main things board, list and card. A proper implementation of board, card and list in your project can give you the best result for sure.
