I am going to stick to the ecosystem (Apple, Google or Microsoft) from now-onwards. Too many email apps tried - Sparrow, Mailbox, Newton, Inbox and now this. I have come to realize that the Mail app on Mac or Gmail just works. I can do without all those fancy features that were built into these apps.

Agreed. It seems there's no business model for third party email clients to ensure its continued development.

Brightpod :) Everything that needs to be tasked goes in there.

Looks neat. Don't think we'll switch from Brightpod.com

You should check out Brightpod.com - might be what you are looking for. It's got the best of Basecamp and Trello.

We are a remote team and this is our setup: - we use hipchat for real-time chatting with the team. We prefer it not be integrated into our pm tool. - we use Brightpod as our pm tool of choice. Not only does it have kanban boards but also lets use message (not real time) our team members.

Good luck!

Yes, there is a lot to manage! I try to use a lot of web tools to automates tasks for Brightpod.com. I wrote a post on it early 2013. Might be helpful - http://sahilparikh.com/post/45667459164/how-we-use-saas-apps...

I have realized that exercise is a great stress-buster! Do it daily.

Use the kanban view in Brightpod to store all of this. You can move things around and start conversations. See www.brightpod.com

Good luck!

This looks like a great tool -- thank you!

Have you asked your team why they don't stick with the tools? Is it too difficult to use?

I invite you and your team to use Brightpod.com.

We built it :)

You mean like brightpod.com :)
