TaskBlast

Having worked as a project manager for a software company, i struggled to find a solution that was both powerful and simple. I found Trello, Basecamp and similar solutions were too simplistic for the needs of a software team.

However, when I looked at the more feature rich solutions like Atlassian’s Jira, they were way too complex. The less technical people on the team struggled figuring out how to use it and the setup took hours and hours. I just wanted something simple, agile and powerful.

Since I couldn’t find that solution I decided to build my own platform, TaskBlast. An Irish company, we currently operate out of the Portershed, Eyre Square, Galway and The Spool Factory in Boyle, Co.Roscommon.

I also felt that along with the lack of simplicity, other solutions didn’t do enough to help me do my job quicker so we also began looking at ways to automate tedious, repetitive and time consuming tasks that project managers and developers have to do on a daily basis.
