I love Clubhouse.io. Best description I think can be a nicer looking Trello on steroids. It has a focus on software development management, but nothing stopping you from using it for any project management. Pricing is also reasonable.

Using Asana as well for a different project.

For non software dev, stopped using/didn’t go back to a type of app I’ve always had a soft spot for because of pricing. App being Basecamp and apps heavily influenced by it like Teamwork.com. It’s just myself, my partner, and a freelancer right now. So Basecamp only price of $100/mo and Teamwork having 5 user minimum at $9/mo (so $45/mo), ends up not being worth it. I’d love to find an app like these for a more fair price.

Jira, Confluence, email, WhatsApp groups.

So much email. So, so much. Some Rocketchat usage but not huge.

I've been using Slack and Trello most recently but I've found it difficult to keep track of communication between several tools.

So I've been building Seat (https://www.useseat.com) to bring the best of Slack and Trello together in addition to document management.

Slack and Asana or Trello.

I've been using Discord quite a lot outside of work and it seems like it would work well as a Slack replacement. Has anyone used Discord for work?

Tuleap https://tuleap.org for Scrum, Kanban and Source code management (git)

Mattermost https://mattermost.com for instance messaging (way superior to slack, esp. for thread management).

I haven't yet used Discord for an actual company, but I've used it to manage and organize several projects now, some quite large. IMO, it beats Slack in every way. I really can't imagine using Slack for any new project/organization at this point.

Notion.so for project management and documenting stuff. Highly recommended.

Trello.

We aren't a tech company (though I subscribe to the every company is a tech company, some just make things) and I'm the only programmer.

Trello is by far the most intuitive tool for none-trivial I've seen, if anyone knows of a better one I'd be interested.

Since Trello had an API I just integrated against that the bits I didn't already have.
