A tool needs an exit.
A new app makes it easy to picture a cleaner workflow. Before moving your real work, check the job it will do and the way you can get out.
A web edition, available free. These are practical decision guides, not reviews of named products or measured customer results.
The inventory
Give each current tool a specific job. Mark an overlap or an unknown instead of guessing what the team needs.
Before you buy another tool, list what you use. ↗The trial
Choose one task, a copy of the material and a stopping point. Keep the current method available while you test.
Test a new tool on one task. ↗The exit
Export a sample with notes, links and attachments. Open it outside the app and compare what survived.
Make an exit plan before moving your work into a new app. ↗One thing to try.
Try this: export one fictional project before you import any important work.
