Trello Project Management: Shared Online Trello To-Do Lists (Udemy.com)

A colleague of mine has been very enthused about Trello. Taking this course helped me become familiar with the program, and saved me a lot of time because my conclusion was that Trello isn't the right choice for me. I did try out the free version of Trello, but found several of the features that I was really hoping to find were only available with the paid subscription---and many of the "PowerUps" in the paid version require a separate paid subscription to yet another platform. The format is somehow less intuitive for me, so I'm going back to the free version of Asana to keep track of projects and to-do's; where that's lacking I find the capabilities in G-Suite add the extra features I need for collaboration. I did hope that the instructor would walk through some of the sample templates that Trello provides free of charge, which cover a wider range of project types and planning scenarios.

Very clear explanations, not too fast, not too slow, just perfect! There's also the fact that the content of the course itself is very engaging and complete. I can feel I am going to be able to do pretty much anything I want on Trello after this course. This one course is enough for making any person not only proficient, but also advanced with this amazing tool! Great job, sir!

The instructor is winging it. Not actually an expert on Trello. It seems that he is making stuff up on the fly. You end up learning a few things but it would be better if the instructor new the material.

For me, the course was worthwhile, although it was a little out-of-date. It mostly just goes over Trello features without adding anything I hadn't already figured out in a few minutes of playing around with Trello, but it does make some forays into thoughts about how to use those features too. I have mixed feelings about the "experiment" with outlining a book using Trello. On the one hand, it was a good example of thinking outside the box when applying Trello. On the other hand, there are better tools available which are specifically for that purpose.

Brian Jackson speaks perfectly clear and well making it very easy to understand him and a joy to listen to. This is important to me because I've bought a few classes where the facilitator's accent was so heavy that even the closed caption couldn't figure out what they were saying. He is knowledgeable with Trello and he is right. I much rather sit through his engaging class and learn everything I need to get going with Trello than to surf for instructions to read and/or view it and try to piecemeal it together myself. Brian gave me exactly what I needed to start using Trello and I've already gotten three boards started and a very happy Trello user so far.

Another great course from this instructor. As a project manager looking for new online PM tools, I found this course to be very useful. Trello uses different terms than the common project management terms you may be used to. The instructor explains these in the first few lectures, which is very helpful. board = project, list = phases of a project, card = task, checklist = a lower level hierarchy for a given card, labels = visual categorization with colors (and optional text)

Great pace (I watch most things at 1.5-2x anyway) and level of detail. Trello is easy to use and fairly intuitive anyway, but Brian makes it easy to get started if you don't feel like experimenting on your own at first. Once you get going, it'll be easier to learn more on your own without a course. My only criticism is that the instructor hasn't always explored all of the options before recording which results in some "I don't know what that feature is for" moments, but this typically doesn't detract from the quality of the info he does present.

Brian steps through using Trello in an organised manner. The course is ideal if you prefer to see how something is done rather than read help pages. His voice and the visuals are clear and well paced. At times I was temped to click buttons and explore facets of the program which hadn't yet been discussed. I think this experimental approach is valid but by going back and watching Brian's discussion of these topics I learned even more.

I happen to stumble upon Trello and decided to give it a try. I am a visual person so I do like the look and feel of Trello. All tho I am relatively new to using tools of this type so far I am liking it. With Brian's course it has given a good overview of what and how to use Trello and then some. I am going to have to go back and rewatch some of the lectures as I learn more about Trello. Somone had mentioned that the course was way to detailed - I strongly disagree - it is detailed but that's the point - at least for me - I need those details to know how to use the Trello tool. Especially loved lecture 30 - if you want to know what that valuable lecture has to offer you'll have to sign up and take his course to find out.

This course offers a "discover as you go" approach to the online Trello project manager. The instructor is unassuming and knowledgeable, and gives specific examples on how to maximize your use of Trello. I've purchased multiple courses from this instructor and have never been disappointed. Sure there are a couple of glitches with an add-on left running during one of the early courses, but he made an immediate effort to give us a "heads up." The best thing the instructor said was basically, that we shouldn't spend too much time fiddling around in Trello instead of actually doing the work it's supposed to help us manage! Because of this course I have switched over completely from Todoist to Trello and the Reminders app, since Trello doesn't currently support the Calendar on Macs and iOS.
