Immediately made me think of Jira.

That's funny, I was thinking of all of the things people pay even more for to replace Jira.

Jira's awful except for all the other options :3

It's a lowest common denominator product. Which is fine. I use it for anything I need to share on and Trello for organizing, "in my own head."

I won't even look at sharepoint.

Depends on the context, I guess. I'm generally more comfortable with lightweight things - like GitHub projects for software and Trello for everything else.

i'm sure there's like a bazillion lower cost alternatives.
