What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 112 of the 149 other project management tools grade higher. It costs $84 a year. - You could make: Kanban boards, tasks, Gantt & timelines and time tracking: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team. - You could not: An API that other software can build on. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it. **Tags:** Kanban boards, Tasks, Gantt & timelines, Time tracking, Public API ## Alternatives - [Scrumwise](https://toolgpa.com/tools/scrumwise): Scrum and Kanban project tool with backlogs, sprints and burndowns.
