MeisterTask vs Trello
Priced at four team sizes, the features checked against both pricing pages.
Take MeisterTask if you want the least to learn and a free plan a small team can run on. Take Trello if you want boards as the interface, a free plan a small team can run on and the least to learn. MeisterTask is cheaper at every size we price.
What each one actually costs

No verdict from me yet
I have not used MeisterTask or Trello on camera, so everything on this page comes from their own pricing pages, re-read weekly, and nothing from my own experience. When I review either, it will be here.
