This article was well written and surprisingly did give a plausible reason why Trello grew and was later acquired.
- ProAm 10y agoTrello grew because it was very KISS. The features were so-so but everyone could use it easily. Atlassian just purchased the bottom segment of the project market, the segment that would never use JIRA in a million years because of it's complexity.
- omouse 10y agoYep, they're consolidating the market and becoming a bigger monopoly. At almost every company, and especially the large ones, JIRA is the "tool" that is used. I keep wondering whatever happened to all the other tools out there because everyone in corporate life has consolidated on this big complex tool. Maybe all other project and task management tools were too open/open source? Didn't feel enterprise-y enough for managers?

- xiaoma 10y agoThe basic breakdown of disruption was okay for someone unfamiliar with the idea, but the writing was horrible. It was littered with 1-3 sentence "paragraphs", bold text and exclamation points. And sentence fragments. And often a combination of multiple irritants! To be honest it felt like it was written for people who aren't really comfortable with reading anything longer than a few sentences at a time.
