Our team has used Favro for 6.5 years and has tracked the completion of just over 8,000 tasks through our Favro system. The way we chose Favro was we presented three online task tracking systems to our team that provided the functions we needed. They were all different, but could get the job done. We publish a paper, not games. So, we track lots of stories in different stages assigned to different people. We have added tracking photography prep tracking, layout planning, and file management tracking. The system simplifies our work by using one card that shows up on many boards to track all of the different elements of publishing the story. While other systems could do the same thing, our team chose Favro because of its superior visual interface and ease of use. It is easy to onboard new team members to the system. It fosters collaboration and evaluation of our processes. It keeps all of our stories in play until we publish or kill them. Because we track from idea generation to final file archiving, we can plan several issues in advance with Favro and still stay on focus for what needs doing today. We recommend the system highly for teams working together on an ever-replenishing set of tasks that need to continually move toward completion. Favro makes juggling all the pieces for multiple active projects much easier. We have incorporated new types of boards and automations as Favro has implemented improvements and enhancements. Because of the system's flexibility, we can adapt our process for special events and try new things without losing the core system we've developed. The platform is highly reliable and the Favro team provides superior and responsive support. Our team loves Favro. We don't know what we'd do without it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The phone app. Favro is best used from a desktop with either a browser window or the desktop app. We have large screen iMacs and attached monitors. The phone android app leaves much to be desired. The strength of Favro is seeing everything at once, visually, and being able to quickly move tasks, adjust loads, plan, and make decisions. The phone app shows only a few cards of a single column. That's not very useful. I only use it to add cards to a column when I'm away. I try to stay away from it because of the frustration - especially moving a card between columns. It's just not as good as a large desktop browser or app window. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Here are in my mind the strongest featuers of Favro:

- Intuitive and easy to ready UI and UX: This makes using Favro very natural and easy to learn for both users and project managers

- Customization: As a project manager, it is very easy for me to customize Favro for my project's needs

- Automation: Setting up automations in Favro is incredibly easy and requires just a few clicks per automation

- Customer support: Favro has top tier customer support with a response to a question within 15 minutes usually

- Constant development: During the 1+ year I've been using Favro, I've seen constant new features (even big ones) being implemented Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Here are in my mind the main weaknesses of Favro:

- Reporting data: While it is possible to have data on your tasks, sprints and milestones, the way this data is collected is a bit clunky and makes it hard to collate data

- Long term planning: Long term planning tools are quite basic (e.g. looking at an individual user's workload is not simple) and make this process a bit cumbersome Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Favro is an excellent tool for Game Projects Planning and Management. Favro has a great Kanban view from where we can add/update or delete cards(Tasks). We can assign tasks to our team members and track the project's progress. We can filter out jobs by Tags. I love the user interface of the Favro. The best tool in the market.

There is nothing to dislike about Favro. It has excellent features and powerful tools. The only thing that needs to be improved is its pricing structure. They charge more cost than other tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Favro is very flexible and can be used in many ways.

All boards can be viewed as sheets/kanban/timeline views interchangeably.

I use Favro for game development and have found I can action almost all requests from the team in terms of workflow and format. Cards/tasks can exist in multiple places and viewed in different ways, allowing us to create a view for the team and a view to show to management/investors.

We like being able to assign more than one person to a task, rather than having to create separate tasks for a multi-disciplinary feature.

Favro's customer support has been really good, they respond quickly and clearly and have jumped on a call with me several times to resolve issues and teach me how to use it. There are some features I am missing, but Favro's feature request & bug process is far more active and transparent than other platforms I have used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Favro's lack of structure can be a drawback if thats not how you are used to working. We have been able to set up some workflows and automations but it is not water tight and requires some manual attention, if you are used to working with lots of automations this would be an adjustment.

Favro's plugins are predominantly one way and lack customisation. For example Slack, Favro will ping a message to Slack but you cannot customise what information is displayed or perform anything in Slack which updates Favro. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Favro is an excellent tool for planning and managing your games with collaborative editing with your team. Team members can share ideas and collaborate on the project. We can keep track with the pipelines. We can divide tasks between groups and can have different stages for functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing specific to dislike about Favro, But their pricing is a bit high. If they reduce the price, all small and medium size companies can use this excellent tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Favro has a visually appealing and intuitive interface that makes it easy to use. Favro allows users to create custom dashboards to fit their specific needs. Favro integrates with various other tools, making it a flexible and scalable solution. The platform offers robust collaboration features that make it easy to share information and work together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Favro integrates with various other tools, some users have reported problems with the reliability and functionality of these integrations. The mobile app for Favro is limited in terms of features and functionality, which can be an issue for users who need to manage projects on the go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When my early-stage startup moved to Favro, we could immediately migrate many of our collaboration tools to the platform, eliminating several silos from our tech stack. Our team is spread across three continents, so our working hours only overlap for a small portion of the day - this has always been a challenge, but Favro has made it much more manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Favro's feature set is robust yet does not ever feel overcrowded. This has made onboarding easy because we can interact with the platform using many of the same shortcuts and hotkeys that other tools use. However, sometimes we will encounter a limitation that was possible on our old platform - this could be as simple as the ability to underline text within a card or change the background color of a table's top row. However, these minor inconveniences are far outweighed by all the things Favro does well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to work with, flexible, adapting to requests, helpful support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Reporting could be better... today, we need to export everything to Excel and then make reports from there Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We could make our tasks into cards and manage them in the kanban-style. I love it because it's so intuitive for me and fun to move cards to "Complete" when corresponding tasks are finished. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Structures between boards were not clear. It seemed that we could create aliases of cards across boards, then we see the same card on different boards. I agree that there are some people who loves it, for example, who would like to manage tasks shared across multiple teams. But it made me so confused. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had a problem organizing my tasks and sometimes forgetting some of them, so having them in one place is a great solution

also, I get notified if the bug is reponed, also seeing my performance and compare it to other teammates Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If someone updates the description on a card, I do not receive a notification, and I get a message when any card to back to recommend column, not just my assigned cards
