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.
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.

Has it been confirmed that this isn't a joke?
Add a couple basic reports and I would pay $20/mo without question.
Yeah, drives me nuts there's zero reporting/analytics. Considering leaving Trello altogether because of this.

Mind elaborating on specific details/workflow that you find superior in Asana compared to Trello?
I also think the keyboard shortcuts on Asana are faster and more intuitive. Don't get me wrong - I love Trello's layout and Kanban - but it feels very light in comparison to Asana (which some probably consider a positive).

Jira has a kanban feature now (Greenhopper, I think?). I have seriously considered it, although I am fearful of the ability for PMs and clients to use Jira's bazillion other features to make my workflow process hell. I do enjoy Trello's forced fluidity, and cannot wait to port my last few clients off redmine (love the project, kanban fits my flow 1000x better).
Oh man, my coworkers are gonna go nuts with this. We already have the thing that makes cards "age" if you don't do anything to them for a while. (I admit it's a cool idea, it just looks like hell.)
... Which is why it's awesome and incredibly useful. It gives you a rough estimate of how long you've neglected a card.
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…
I upgraded the instant I saw it for 2 reasons: 1) I've been wanting a way to PAY for this service for a long time now so I know it's there year after year. I'm super happy to give them $5 per month. 2) I wanted pretty backgrounds. I am what I am.
What is the reasoning as to why one would voluntarily give money when not absolutely necessary? It just seems odd that one would be happy simply because of that. (In commerce, that is. Charity is a different animal.)
Then again, I might be the weird one.

I've never understood the pure desire to give away one's money. In my book, parting with money is a significant thing that only comes after careful consideration and knowledge of clear benefits. Even then, I'm never happy to get rid of my money. The unpleasantness of giving up my money is simply outweighed by the utility of the thing I'm buying. What is the reasoning as to why one would voluntarily give money when no…
Simple: something you value may go away if not funded.

Besides the fact that some of these stickers are in fact useful for "serious work" (like "big red exclamation sign"), "serious work" isn't Trello's only target audience. And it's not like they took away the labels.
It's not a fact, I happen to find that exclamation sign too silly. I used Trello for keeping track of chores around the house, and I think more than 5 or 6 labels (what's so hard about adding more fields?) would be far more useful than these tacky emoji. I'm just not into Trello Gold, I hate gaudy things.
