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
Anyone understands it in under a minute. Adoption is effectively free.
Cons
There is no meaningful cross project reporting.

Everyone understood it in thirty seconds
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
Butler automation is more capable than it first appears.
Cons
It will not scale with a growing team, and you will have to move.

Simple by design, so it stops where you would expect
Once a board passes about 200 cards, finding anything is a chore and the board becomes a wall. That is the moment to move to something else rather than fight it.
Pros
The free tier has unlimited cards and is genuinely usable.
Cons
There is no meaningful cross project reporting.

Simple by design, so it stops where you would expect
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.
Pros
Perfect for a defined flow: hiring, a content calendar, a punch list.
Cons
Dependencies are not native.
