Ask HN: What project management tool does your team use?

I'm evaluating project management tools (asana, airtable, clickup, monday, etc.) for a startup of 10 people, across engineering and business teams. Would like to know what teams are using.

* What tool and what kind of team? Pros and cons of the tool?

* Is it easy to learn for non tech-savvy users?

* Does the tool let you see dependencies between tasks? Something like a gantt chart.

All the above tools pretty much do the same, I'd suggest you not to spend time over-analysing the tools and just pick what you are comfortable in using.

In fact I've found spreadsheets to offer better productivity when I was running a startup of 5 people.

I agree. We were using a shared Google Sheet in a 5 people team (3 devs, 1 manager and 1 product owner).

Worked great. However, not sure if it is "scalable" when more people join.

Teamwork Projects Used across various teams in the company, from support, marketing, HR and developers. Also has Gantt chart but I've never used that much
