CanTicket vs. Trello: We're Not a Board - We're a Business Tool

Let’s be upfront:

If you love card shuffling, you’ll love Trello.

But if your business needs more than digital sticky notes and drag-and-drop dopamine hits — then we need to talk.

Why You’ll Eventually Outgrow Trello

Trello is a fantastic starting point. Simple, visual and easy to adapt:

But as your business scales, your once-organized board turns into a digital graveyard of forgotten tasks.

“Just another place things go to die.”

Deadlines get missed. Cards get buried. Accountability disappears. Before you know it, you’re juggling spreadsheets, digging through emails, and chasing updates in Slack — again.

It's time for a system that grows with you.

We’re Not for Everyone – And That’s the Point

We didn’t build CanTicket to replace Trello for the hobbyist or startup with three tasks a week.

**Trello = A Board.

CanTicket = A Tool.**

We didn’t build CanTicket to replace Trello for the hobbyist or startup with three tasks a week.

We built it for:

Agencies, consultants, tradies, and service-based teamsWho’ve outgrown basic boardsAnd want one system to manage the real work of business

If you like plugins, third-party add-ons, and switching between 5 tools to get one job done, keep using Trello.

If you’d rather open one platform and get full visibility on who’s doing what, when it’s due, and what’s billable…

Welcome to CanTicket.

Trello is a great tool. It’s just not built for business.

Trello’s beauty is in its simplicity.

Boards, lists, and cards make it easy to visualise your to-dos — especially if you're a solo operator or managing a basic project.

But what happens when your business needs grow?

Here’s the thing Trello won’t do:

Schedule your team’s workload.

Track time or calculate job profitability.

Convert tasks into invoices.

Let you manage clients, roles, or departments.

Keep your operations accountable across people and priorities.

That’s where CanTicket comes in.

CanTicket Is Built for Doing. Not Dragging.

We didn’t just remove the bloat.

We reimagined how service businesses run:

✅ Job Templates
✅ Smart calendar-based task assignment
✅ AI-powered rescheduling
✅ Department + role-based permissions
✅ Invoicing tied to tracked time

We’re not just prettier. We’re smarter.

Final Thought: A Board Won’t Scale Your Business — A System Will

If you’re happy running your day with a whiteboard on a screen, Trello works.

But if you need an operations tool that saves time, eliminates tool-switching, and helps your team get actual work done...

CanTicket is for you.
