Top 10 Task Management Platforms for Eastern Europe

2026. Asana is moving to team and process AI agents



Asana developers say that traditional AI agents, even if they speed up the work of individual employees, do not automatically speed up business workflows or lead to increased profitability. Therefore, they have created AI Teammates - agents created by managers that operate within specific teams and processes and utilize their full context. For example, such an agent can act as a navigator for project launch, monitoring dependencies, flagging risks, and generating summary reports for management. An agent can be linked to process template and initiate every time a repeating process is created. AI Teammates follow existing corporate rules regarding data access and sharing. Managers control what data their AI teammates can access, as well as who can create, edit, and collaborate with AI Teammates.


2026. Remote.Team implements end-to-end encryption for tasks and confidential chats



Collaboration platform Remote.Team has implemented end-to-end encryption for tasks and private discussions. This is a significant step in strengthening data security for companies and teams using the service. The new feature ensures that confidential information, discussions and business correspondence within tasks are protected to the highest level. Data is encrypted on the sender's device and can only be decrypted on the recipient's device, preventing access by third parties, including platform operators. Private discussions with employees, partners, or clients will now remain confidential.


2025. Trello redesign causes outrage among users



Atlassian has introduced an update to its project management service Trello and it was immediately met by users in a sharply negative way. The update introduced a variety of changes to the service interface, for example, it changed the arrangement of all the main interface elements on the page. The fonts and functions of the buttons have also changed - especially in the task card. Many users are sure that the new Trello interface was implemented specially to make it as inconvenient as possible and it's a secret attempt by Atlassian to force them to switch to Jira, which provides similar functionality, but is more expensive. Both services have free plans, but if you consider the paid plans, Jira costs at least $7.53 per user, while Trello costs $5. As a reminder, Atlassian acquired Trello back in 2017.

2019. Asana now features automated tasks



Following in Slack's footsteps, the project management service Asana has also decided to add some automation to routine operations and processes. The new Automation tool lets you create simple "If...Then..." rules. For example, when a task is assigned a high priority, you can automatically add the director to it. Integrations with Gmail, Outlook, and Slack allow you to use tasks added from them as triggers. You can also create lists of sequential tasks to automate processes, such as hiring a new employee. Each completed task in the list activates the next one. Automation is only available in Asana's paid plans, which start at $11/month per user.


2015. Worksection unveiled mobile app



Worksection, a popular collaboration and project management service, has released free mobile apps for iOS and Android. Now users can access their projects, tasks, files, notes, and contacts (colleagues) from their smartphones or tablets. Users can create new tasks, add comments, upload files, receive push notifications, and track their time using the time tracker. The app conveniently tracks the latest project changes using the activity feed. Key features can be used offline: project, task, and bookmark lists, people and contact lists, a notepad, and recent events.


2014. ToDoist arrives on Android Wear smartwatches


ToDoist is shrinking down its popular to-do app to fit on a smaller screen on Android Wear watches. ToDoist for Android Wear support is now included in the free app. Once installed on an Android Wear watch and wirelessly sync with a phone or tablet, ToDoist can be used to create tasks through voice commands by saying  “OK Google, start Todoist. Add task.” These tasks will sync over to your connected Android phone and be added to your task list. Since ToDoist also synchs data through the cloud, any tasks added from the watch will be available through ToDoist on the web, other Android devices, Apple iOS, Microsoft Windows, Mac, Chrome and other supported platforms. ToDoist also includes location-based notifications for tasks. Your watch might vibrate, for example, if you have a task to pick up milk and you’re nearing the supermarket.
