Task management: the French alternative to Trello
Which project management software should you choose from the growing range on offer? At the heart of the matter: task management, to better organize your schedule and track the progress of your projects in real time. The collaborative tools in your management software should enable you to plan a list of tasks, delegate some and assign others, while maintaining fluid contact and cultivating a collaborative spirit with your team. Already thinking about integrated messaging? Bravo, excellent answer: your view of task management software reflects your desire to work flexibly. You're ready to take on the todo list of professional fulfillment: let's go!
Task 1: breathe joy into the intuitive interface
To mark its difference from Trello, one of the best-known project management software packages, Taskworld offers a number of natively integrated features that use their charms. Taskworld's version is the inspiration for this fun-filled to-do list... which begins with an easy-to-use, intuitive project management interface.
Getting started has never been easier. Taskworld's interface takes you step by step through animated tutorials, once you've created your account and workspace. Task management is intuitive because it's highly visual. You choose the color code of your choice and each icon guides you: the Taskworld task manager offers intuitive reference points. In fact, visual task management is based on well-established web user practices, notably to facilitate note-taking and planning.
The interactive dashboard lets you manage your workflow by assigning interactive tasks . Of course, you can also set your own deadlines, as well as a Gantt chart.
Your project management relies in part on good time management. Unlike Trello, you save time on repetitive work. You don't have to start from scratch for every recurring task: you just do as you please and define the repetition, copying projects and classifying them as you see fit. No more redundant data entry.
More and more project managers are applying the GTD (Getting Things Done) approach, a method for organizing your tasks and making sure you can react at any time according to your priorities. Clarifying teamwork has never been easier: with Taskworld, you keep a constant eye on all your activities thanks to the overview available in the interactive dashboard.
Task 2: share your well-being via messaging
Where Trello offers chat with a paid Slack extension, Taskworld offers integrated chat. You and your team have access to a corporate messaging system that encourages exchange and discussion via a public channel, or via a private group if, for example, you assign certain members to a specific project.
You can put an end to endless meetings, and free your mailbox from a clutter of attachments that are often difficult to find, thanks to chat. This collaborative tool makes it easy to exchange project information as a team. You can exchange files and attachments in real time by simply dragging and dropping them into your message: the files tab lets you find all your task-related attachments at a glance. For even greater convenience, Taskworld automatically integrates your Dropbox, Google Drive or box, whatever your web browser.
The "seen by" function (another Taskworld exclusive not present in Trello) shows you who has seen what and when... Example: you are the team manager and you assign a task to one or more collaborators. You know in real time whether each person has been informed. When you have Taskworld in your hands, there's no excuse, certainly not the famous "sorry, I didn't have access to my email box...".
Prefer to reply by email, using your own messaging system? Taskworld's management software will make you a happy user: integrate with your mailbox (gmail, outlook, ...) to reply, send messages and manage your notifications from your mailbox. It's up to you to choose the most pleasant way to achieve the productivity you want - Taskworld adapts to your every need.
Task 3: fall under the spell of analytics
If Trello's ponderous lack of analytics leaves you feeling dubious about this management tool, Taskwolrd's analytics will delight you. After all, you like to see, and visualize in real time, the progress of your projects and associated tasks, don't you?
We've already talked about the interactive dashboard: you always have a global overview at your fingertips. You can also change the overview by configuring filters, depending on the precise information you wish to view in your workspace. The application is designed to synchronize information at will.
Mr. Project, say "33". Instantly visualize your project's state of health: Taskworld's analysis of your project sheds light on critical elements, alerting you and enabling you to react quickly.
Automatic synchronization allows you to see which tasks have been completed, which are overdue, which are scheduled or which have no due date. Take advantage of visual task management:
- Your Burn Down Chart provides an instant visualization of your project's unfinished tasks. It assesses the possibility of completion: this is useful and vital for estimating your project's final completion date.
- Another chart, the Burn Up Chart, associates the scope of your project with your completed tasks. When the two curves meet, your project is complete.
Task 4: mobile application for euphoria
The mobile application dedicated to task management will delight smartphone addicts and mobile project managers alike. Indeed, there's just one argument that should be enough to win over the most ardent Trello users: Taskworld offers the exclusivity of integrated chat. No other task management software offers this decisive advantage for people on the move on a regular basis.
Indeed, mobile collaboration makes perfect sense, because all the features of the Web App are available on the mobile app:
- you stay connected with your colleagues; intelligent real-time notifications assist you,
- you can talk to your team even when you're on the move, and you have access to all shared files,
- you benefit from the same functionalities as on the TasKworld Web App: you create tasks, you can even assign them to team members, you leave comments, and so on.
- the transfer from the Web App platform to the mobile App is fast and seamlessly synchronized,
- In short, you take your office with you, and find all your projects and workspace as if you were on the Web App.
Summary of collaborative tools missing from Trello

Taskworld offers unlimited storage: indeed, what's the point of using a collaborative tool if you can't put anything in it?
Another feature missing from Trello: project groups. The big difference lies in one word: fluid. Within a project group, you can merge related projects, keeping your workspace functional, tidy and organized. Managing 100 projects is no longer a gas factory...
