Trello
Visual kanban-based work management platform for teams of any size
Trello is a kanban-style project management tool that organizes work into boards, lists, and cards to help teams collaborate and track progress visually. Owned by Atlassian, it combines intuitive drag-and-drop functionality with workflow automation and integrations. In 2026, it includes AI-powered features like quick capture and content generation across paid tiers.
How we scored it
A weighted average of the 4 dimensions below, each judged 0–10 from published pricing, vendor documentation and independent user feedback. We do not run hands-on tests, and no vendor has any say in a score.
2 further dimensions are not scored for this product yet, so they are left out of the average rather than counted as zero. How the score works.
What it actually costs
Intro pricing shown — see the renewal note for what you'll pay after the introductory term. We don't hide the second-act price.
Free
Free for up to 10 collaborators per Workspace; up to 10 boards per Workspace; 250 Workspace command runs per month; 10 MB max file size.
Standard
Per user/month pricing (vendor shows $5 per user/month if billed annually; $6 billed monthly).
Premium
Per user/month pricing (vendor shows $10 per user/month if billed annually; $12.50 billed monthly).
Enterprise
Vendor displays Enterprise as $17.50 per user/month billed annually ($210.00 annual price per user); Enterprise is for businesses with 50 seats or more and vendor shows annual billing.
What to check before you move a team onto Trello
An app a team lives in all day is the hardest kind of software to leave. These are the questions that matter more than the feature list.
What it costs per seat, in a year
At $6 per user per month, a team of ten is $720 a year before a single add-on. Price the team you will have in a year, not the one you have today.
Which roles have to pay
Many plans charge full price for people who only need to read or approve. If light users need a seat, the real cost is the headline price times everyone, not times the core team.
Whether you can get your data out
Ask what a full export contains and in what format. An export that drops attachments, comments or history is not an export — it is a reason you will not leave.
What the move itself costs
Migration, retraining and the weeks of lower output are the real switching cost. Count them once when you adopt, because you pay them again if you change your mind.
These are the checks we apply across saas, in the same order, so two pages can be compared line for line.
How much does Trello really cost?
Our calculation from the vendor's published prices — not a figure the vendor advertises.
The headline price is for one person. Adding people multiplies it, so a team of ten pays ten times the advertised figure. Per-user (per-seat) pricing for paid plans; cost scales linearly with number of users. Free plan limits collaborators per Workspace.
| Team size | Per month | Per year | Over 3 years | How it is charged |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 person | $6 | $72 | $216 | $6 per seat per month |
| 5 people | $30 | $360 | $1,080 | $6 per seat per month |
| 10 people | $60 | $720 | $2,160 | $6 per seat per month |
| 50 people | $300 | $3,600 | $10,800 | $6 per seat per month |
Based on the Standard plan at $6 a month. Three years at the published annual price. No renewal increase is published.
- The vendor does not publish a renewal price, so three-year totals assume today's price holds.
Work out your own cost
- $6 per seat per month.
- Billed annually at $5 per month equivalent.

| Biggest strength | Intuitive drag-and-drop interface with minimal learning curve, making adoption fast across non-technical teams | Slackbot's contextual awareness of your team's conversations and files eliminates constant app-switching — it actually knows what you've been working on | Real-time collaboration is genuinely excellent — multiple designers can work simultaneously without conflicts or lag |
| Biggest drawback | Limited task dependencies and no native Gantt charts; complex projects require workarounds or third-party Power-Ups | AI features like Slackbot and summarisation require paid plans, pricing out smaller teams who'd benefit most from automation | Performance degrades noticeably on complex files with hundreds of artboards or heavy plugins |
