Bloated Project Software
Small teams and startups lack an affordable, simple project management tool that everyone will adopt, forcing them into spreadsheets, email, or bloated enterprise software they barely use.
In their words
my previous organisation had a plethora of project management tools, charts, templates and resources... They do not
it feels like we could build exactly what our team needs, leave out the features we never use, and own the entire system
glorified spreadsheet that runs poorly once you put more than a couple hundred rows on it
we currently use Confluence, Jira, and GitHub, but find that the back and forth switching is a lot
Using a second tool is creating confusion between the team where to look and where to put things.
The only thing missing is the "cards" that don't work, the automations that sometimes do not work and the rigid "everything is a task" hierarchy.
I can’t seem to track action items well. I can have maybe 30 actions items pop up in a given day.

Where they talk

- r/projectmanagers
- r/clickup
- r/Software_Finder

Tools they use today
- monday.com
- Asana
- ClickUp
- Jira
- Excel
- Trello
- Notion
- Claude
Why those fall short
- action items live in four places, none trusted as complete
- free versions not viable; no money for subscriptions
- organisation has no PM department or toolset; colleagues shrug it off
- no adoption or use from people outside the PM team
- dashboards and calculated views slow as workspace grows; support only says clear cache
