Kantree combines boards, chat, documents and automations, and runs on web, desktop and phones. Gantt, portfolios and single sign-on need Business at €20 a user, and there is no free plan. - **Value for money: D.** Team is €12 a user a month yearly, but Gantt and portfolios are on Business at €20, against a $9 middle. AI is another €3 a user. - **Free plan and trial: C.** 15-day free trial with no card. No free plan. - **Features: C.** Several views of the same cards, chat, documents, whiteboards, automations, forms and dashboards. The gap: Gantt is not on Team. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record, and boards and automations have to be built. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android apps. No integrations list was read, so no A. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from Digicoop's own pages on 12 November 2026.

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 90 of the 111 other project management tools grade higher. It costs $160.88 a year. - You could make: Kanban boards, Gantt & timelines and tasks: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. - You could not: Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services. - You could not: Apps for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other. - You could not: It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
