Best project management software for startups in India
Project management software organises work into tasks, owners and deadlines with visibility across the team. The main risk in this category is buying something more elaborate than your team will maintain. For startups specifically, every rupee of software spend competes with runway.
What startups need from project management software
- Every rupee of software spend competes with runway
- Compliance (GST, PF, ESI, TDS) starts on day one whether or not there is a finance team
- Tools must scale from a founding team to a hundred people without migration
- Investor reporting needs clean books and metrics
- Hiring and onboarding remote talent is continuous
