I find Trello very tough to use with a team but great for keeping track of individual process. Asana (while very different) seems to work better with our team of 5.

I was hoping Trello Gold would have offered the things that keep us from using Trello in the first place because I really do like the the Kanban method.

Is this some analytics project of an intern or something. So strange, almost looks like a parody. Oh well Trello is awesome that cannot be stressed enough :)

A lot of the features for Trello are worked on by interns actually, if you read the blog. Pretty good work so far!

“What does Trello Gold mean for Business Class?” Nothing. They work totally independently. Trello Gold is for individuals and Business Class is for organizations

Getting upset that your Kanban board will get cluttered by stickers is missing the point.

(I think stickers are awesome. You might not think so, but I think so, and I'm generally inclined to give Trello my money. This, if nothing else, gives me a venue to do so.)

After finally being convinced that this isn't a joke, I had a horrible revelation: If Trello came with all of that by default, I would pay just as much to make it go away.

That's Trello Platinum, coming soon. Somebody pays $5 to add stickers to your board, then you pay $5 more to take them away.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Like MySpace? I think people should let their tools look the way the want it to, but it always goes downhill from there. It's one of those things where it's better to just keep it simple and standard looking.

If you want to keep it simple and standard looking, go ahead. I don't see that changing in any way. A classic use case of the new feature for business users, would be using different board colors to easily differentiate between boards. Just this would be a nice usability win.

You'd think so, but from when they said 'Trello Gold is for individuals' it sounds like it won't even be available to business accounts.

Meanwhile, I'm completely on board with this. Trello is used by a lot of people who make lots of money and want to throw some of it at Fog Creek because they're awesome, but it's also used by a lot of people who make not lots of money (in some cases zero money) and are organizing things like school projects and community service. (For example, I use Trello to organize all my homework, and a club I'm part of at school…

Can see it as a nice way to give them some money and sure, if you upload big files, useful. However, would really liked to have seen data encryption rather than stickers. Everything you do in Trello is stored in plan text. Not a huge fan of that.
