Depends on who you are collaborating with.

Asana internally, Basecamp when dealing with external clients and Phabricator is cool within dev teams.

Trello needs a UI designer and Atlassian is pretty horrendous for anything other than the largest enterprises.

I've been evaluating both tools as well, and have Basecamp in the mix because my designer likes it. So far, my team and I haven't formed a consensus.

Personally, I always have my inbox open and have a management system of tags, stars, and other things to make my Gmail & Google Calendar a useful to-do list. But now that Mark mentions it, I ought to try out Streak and Baydin too. Anyone here have any experience with either one?

Why are there so many of these tools but none of them truly nail it? Asana, Sprintly, Pivotal, Trello, Basecamp, the list goes on. Plus there's Google Docs.

I wonder why there isn't a general consensus about one must-have tool.

Are they all watered down and so general that no one can really fall in love with any of the products?

True regarding Atlassian, though Greenhopper is awesome. https://www.atlassian.com/software/greenhopper/overview
