+1 for MS Teams (we're begun using it for certain "teams" & projects here at the ROM). In addition to the Slack-like capability, MS is converging a lot of other features into it, including Skype, OneDrive, Sharepoint, Calendar and a whole bunch of 3rd party integrations (JIRA, Trello etc). To extend the project management functionality of Teams, I'd recommend hooking in MS Planner.
If your org is already on O365 then you already have Teams, for free, and is definitely worth evaluating.

We're exploring project management software options at our agency as well! I've used Basecamp and Asana in a previous life, but wasn't madly in love with either of them. Recently, our museum has transitioned over to Office 365 which comes with Microsoft Teams. While it seems like its strong suit is the chat feature, I've been poking around and it has a level of project management (task assignment, staging, etc.) features that integrate with the rest of the Office suite we're already using. I'm wondering if this would be worth trying since we already own it and it interfaces with all of the Microsoft programs we currently use. Has anyone tried using Microsoft Teams in a museum context? Successfully or painfully? Our Exhibits Curator is investigating Curia to see if it might be a good fit as well!

I see there was some input last year on the question of Project Management Software/
I have used Asana, and currently use Monday.com. The big issue I have is that I don't find that it is not keeping me informed. I have to keep going to it and going through long lists.
I tried Clickup, but I find the pricing very high. I could not get a deal for a small staff if I also wanted to add some board members.
What are you all using? at AAM someone talked about Wrike, but they were not 100% happy.
Thanks
