#213Not bad, but I still have to say that zenhub does it better Used that at an old job and it was the only project management software I didn't grow to hate. Fast, "built into" GitHub, and adds other value across the site, I miss it now at my current jira gig
Big +1, I used zenhub at one of my first jobs and I miss it to this day.
I've tried most other project management software. They all stink in one way or another. JIRA is a known problem, ClickUp, Monday, and friends aren't much better. I never liked pivotal, and its dead now, so doesn't really matter. And Github's projects feature is just too spartan to be useful
