[Question] Simple task management for small teams (lemmy.ml)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I'm part of a small team that collaborates on projects. There's up to 50 projects in the queue or in progress at a time, all projects are very similar to one another.

We basically need some kind of task management platform with the following features:

tasks need to be grouped by project
we need to be able to discuss tasks
we need to be able to attach a few files (mostly screen shots) to discussions

That's it really, but everything I've looked at seems to be either a kanban board which just doesn't work for us, or a small part of a larger project management / collaboration ecosystem which is kind of overwhelming.

We're presently using Asana, but while it does what we need IMO it does it very poorly - better suited to teams working on fewer more variable projects.

Of course I'd prefer self hosted & open source but that's not critically important.

Any suggestions welcome!

Weird take.

So adapt to some specific one

I guess I'm asking for recommendations as to which will be the easiest to adapt to.

I wish you to find what you are looking for, sadly my experience is it does not exist.

I am sorry if I transfered some of frustration from not having good and simple PM aplication to you, not your fault, just me

If you find something you like - let us know, especially after some months of use

Would one of the kanban board style apps work if you had multiple projects in one board? If it offers labels or tags you could have a different label for each project.

Jira also lets you have boards from multiple projects but it's not exactly lightweight.
