The free workspace caps at 10 collaborators and we grew past it mid project. Suddenly a tool we had built a process around needed a real budget line. The limit is documented, it just arrives at the worst moment. Plan for it rather than discovering it.
Pros
Perfect for a defined flow: hiring, a content calendar, a punch list.
Cons
Dependencies are not native.

The right amount of tool
I introduced it on a Tuesday and the warehouse team was using it correctly by Thursday. No training session, no manual. For a team that had rejected every previous tool, that is the entire review.
Pros
Nothing to configure and nothing to maintain.
Cons
There is no meaningful cross project reporting.

Free tier runs our whole hiring pipeline
We track our hiring pipeline on the free tier. Candidates move across the board, everyone sees where things stand, and it costs nothing. A dedicated recruiting tool would cost hundreds a month to do the same job worse.
Pros
Power-Ups extend it without complicating the core.
Cons
It will not scale with a growing team, and you will have to move.

Perfect small, useless large
It does not do reporting across projects and it does not do dependencies. Those are not oversights, they are the product's position. If you need them, this is the wrong tool and no Power-Up will really fix it.
