What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 106 of the 111 other project management tools grade higher. It costs $636 a year. - You could make: Tasks, Gantt & timelines, kanban boards, time tracking, invoicing, sales pipeline and reports: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: A real app for iOS. Something home-made would be a web page. - You could not: It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team. - You could not: It plugs into other products, QuickBooks Online, Asana and Zapier among them. - You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
