Re: [MCN-L] Project management systems

2015-12-16 Thread Perian Sully
Seconding what Ari said. What're your priorities? Trello is quite popular
for agile project management and supports everything you mentioned, but not
sure to what degree you need these things. I'm not up to speed on Slack but
I know lots of people use it. Currently using Igloo as an intranet and it
can, kinda, support workflow management, but has a lot of
information-sharing and document sharing tools.

do you want something for a small team or for an institution? Trello and
Slack would be great for just picking up and going (assuming you don't need
waterfall PM features), while Jira or Igloo or BaseCamp are better for
institution-wide project management.

Re: [MCN-L] Project management systems

2015-12-11 Thread Ari Davidow
There are a host of systems that do all of that and more in a Project
Management context, from Trello or BaseCamp (both can be free), on up to MS
TFS (part of Microsoft's Visual Studio) or Jira Agile. Can you tell us what
you're doing know and where you want to get to next? Is there a specific
Project Management methodology (e.g., waterfall with a PMP, Agile), or is
the focus on the obvious project management wins of having a central place
to store/find project documents and some basic messaging/commenting tools?
What does "better communication" mean in this context?

We have just started using Assembla (http://www.assembla.com/) for our web
upgrade project. It helps because many of the people working on the project
are off-site (and part of a separate company).
It features a secure document repository (Subversion), a ticketing system
(supporting agile process) and even a wiki. I'm probably only using a
fraction of its capabilities myself, but from what I've seen so far, it
works quite well.

We mange project teams that are a mix of on-site staff and contractors who are 
often off-site.  We use Trac (http://trac.edgewall.org/), which combines a 
wiki, an issue ticketing system, and a subversion code repository.  You can use 
the subversion repo to manage project documents as well.

I have also used Basecamp, and can recommend it as a collaborative tool.  Trac 
is great for projects that focus on programming tasks.  Basecamp is better for 
collaborative document-based projects.

Hello,

We at the Bloomfield Science Museum in Jerusalem are taking part in a
number of international projects.

Managing and participating in these projects using Email is becoming
hard.

We are considering two solutions - Google Groups (with other Google
tools) and http://huddle.net 

Both have pros and cons.

If any of you is using those tools for this purpose or use other tools,
we would love to hear your opinions.

2009-11-16 Thread Ari Davidow
Several people have mentioned Huddle to me - would love to hear from
people using it. It does sound good.

I have personally found Google Groups to be an even klunkier (who'da
thunk?) Yahoo groups - not my idea of group project management.

Our last couple of projects used Redmine (www.redmine.org) which
includes some decent project management tools, a wiki, files area, and
hooks to subversion.

We have also looked hard at www.zoho.com for all sorts of
collaborative work. Those parts we have tested (docs, spreadsheet)
have been more comfortable and less buggy than Google Docs. I'm
looking for an excuse to try out the MS Project hosted analog, too.
Very promising.

Hope this helps,
