Re: [MCN-L] Project management systems
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. ___ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l@mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://mcn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/mcn-l@mcn.edu/
Re: [MCN-L] Project management systems
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? ari On Fri, Dec 11, 2015 at 5:07 PM, Tatum Walker wrote: > Hello, > Anyone out there know of a great project management system that can manage > workflows, file sharing, increase collaboration, and allows for better > communication? > > Bests, > Tatum Walker > > ___ > You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer > Network (http://www.mcn.edu) > > To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l@mcn.edu > > To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: > http://mcn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l > > The MCN-L archives can be found at: > http://www.mail-archive.com/mcn-l@mcn.edu/ > ___ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l@mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://mcn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/mcn-l@mcn.edu/

We've been using Teamwork Projects (https://www.teamwork.com/projects/) for some time here to manage web and digital projects. It's not perfect but I like it a lot and the support, in the few instances when needed, is very responsive and helpful.

We at Maine Memory Network, just like LOC, also use TRAC by Edgewall software and it works out well. I manage 2 offsite programmers and up to 3 designers at anytime.

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.

[MCN-L] Project management systems for inter-organizational cooperation
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.
