I really had a good, longstanding relationship with this product. I've been paying for many years. It has become a part of me. You guys really messed it up. I don't know what customer base you're chasing, but nobody would like this interface better. I know you're not going back - maybe I'll get over it. I'm too old to transfer my 50 boards and 1,000+ cards somewhere else.
Yeah. After dealing with it a few days...Trello use to be nice to use, mind to board. Now it's just frustration while I try to get to the right place -- before I didn't even have to think as I knew positionally. Scrolling a little box down at the bottom, searching, and etc is such a step backwards. Before was one click I didn't need to think about.
Each workspace was also...a workspace. Not an attribute in a list.
And Atlassian, this is mostly using for personal use. It's individual people using Trello too that need this, and makes zero sense even with your noted pivot to be more a personal system.
Please allow to reverse this 'update' for all of us who it is not useful and slows down our work as a team and individuals 🙏 Please read the comments of the other people who think the same way; they have explained the reasons why, so no need for me to repeat them. Thank you.
I want to switch back to having a list of my boards all visible in a panel on the left side at all times, but I have been unable to revert to the original version following the directions provided here. ("click the ... icon" but there is no ... icon, and no option to select to revert to all boards pinned as a list in a left-side panel. How do I get my old view back? Thank you.
@Wendela Whitcomb Marsh Atlassian says they are working on an option to let us return to the pinned boards list on the left, but the rest will remain the same, it seems.
@Eva I hope I'm tagging the correct 'Eva' here - they won't revert, but they'll provide options to let some of the views return to what they were.
Just give us the option to switch back to the classic view and navigation! The new view is completely unusable for teams and managers.
The left hand navigation is absolutely necessary when managing 100+ boards.
The right hand side action panel within the Cards was also necessary. Actions that used to be 1 click are now 3+, not to mention the extra time to find where it's located and then load.
Don't make users wait for more "improvements", just rollback the UI changes.
@Alexandros Mathopoulos Instead of making users wait for "improvements" which still don't actually resolve the issues, just rollback the UI change! We can all go back to actually being efficient and productive with the tool and you all wouldn't have to operate in emergency mode trying to fix everything you broke. Win-win.
@Alexandros Mathopoulos Let the Product team know that the feature to give feedback on the cardback is broken. Once you select "Share your thoughts on Cards" the pop-up modal just starts flashing and everything breaks.
> Please consider FULL SCREEN especially for users on the go working on laptops and small screens, who are meeting with clients and so forth. The small screen is taking away the ability to see the workflow at a glance while in a collaborative environment when we have several other things happening at once.
Is this what you mean? You can make a board occupy your entire screen by toggling other panels in the navigation bar.
Wow, this new card layout is terrible. It's even worse that we can't seem to roll back to the previous card view, and now we have a floating eye-sore mini dialogue at the bottom center of the screen that we're now forced to look at. Please roll back and allow users to opt in if they choose to do so. You've successfully designed a worse user experience and forced paying customers to accept it and with this roll out thrashed our team's (and countless others) productivity. Whoever designed and approved this release should not be allowed to stay in a product and leadership role.
At this point I can only assume the Trello leadership are trying to destroy the company as part of a complicated tax write-off strategy. No one can be this bad and this resistant to user feedback intentionally.
The amount of vertical space on the card visible on a laptop is a complete joke, and clearly shows no testing whatsoever.
Alexandros, I commented and continue to get emails with everyone else's activity, all pretty upset about the changes. Can Trello explain the motivation for these changes? If Trello had a good reason (and it's not clear you did), that might help folks accept the change. If the only reason for changing the code was "the marketplace expects us to 'freshen' up our interface periodically", please re-enable the old interface, at least as an alternative. Yes, you'd have to support old and new going forward. I assume SOMEONE is happy with the new interface, yes? Please - we need to know your motivation.
@Sue Newshutz elsewhere they said or implied the sidebar removal was to make way for the inbox. And the inbox and overall redesign was part of an attempt to make Trello more appealing for expanded use as a "personal" service. (And they would push more complex business use towards JIRA.)
Both are laughable, as it's much worse for personal use now...pretty much every change makes it worse to use. The inbox is a good option to have, but for many of us is exactly the opposite of the "no junk pile" type of methodology we use. And many personal users have a lot of boards, the order in the sidebar is part of the flow, and we use multiple workspaces too.
JIRA is not a "migration" path for businesses using Trello either, unless that's some kind of cruel joke...the reason Trello is used is because it (was) so frictionless and visual. Perfect for those that explicitly don't want to get mired in a ticketed and metric'd workflow that gets in the way of smaller/faster teams. Note that the pricing of trello/jira per user is pretty close, so it doesn't seem like a money grab.
Particularmente não gostei das últimas atualizações envolvendo o layout. Preferia da forma como estava há alguns meses atrás. Seria interessante deixar o layout de forma opcional.
