I am finding https://trello.com/ to be very easy to use for project
management with my student workers. It uses the idea of cards and
custom states to define your project workflow, (I use the concept of a
plane trip: at the gate, on the runway, in the air, holding pattern,
at the terminal, grounded and crash and burn). The usage is simple
enough, that I don't find it cumbersome. You can attach files, pics,
checklists, comments, etc to each card and drag-n-drop, (or use
keyboard shortcuts), to move the card from state to state.
Additionally, you can add and remove assigned staff to each card, and
filter cards.
Finally, it's free.
Check it out!
