    Asana only let me to choose between a task list OR a board. but a lot of times, I need both views to track my projects. Quire can use two kinds of view for one project. I can list out all my ideas first, then use the board view to track my project. it's really helpful, and they have a post about moving from Asana to Quire, that's helpful too! https://quire.io/free-asana-alternative-migration

    We organize our dynamic tasks easily with Quire's nested task list, while the Kanban Board provides a visual and focuses on selected tasks within the same project.

    Absolutely fantastic project management tool; however, does not have the CRM features that Asana has.
