Abstrak

Di era digital yang menuntut kolaborasi cepat dan transparansi kerja, metodologi Agile menjadi pendekatan populer dalam pengembangan perangkat lunak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas penggunaan Trello sebagai alat bantu manajemen tugas dalam konteks Agile. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif melalui observasi langsung terhadap penggunaan Trello dalam simulasi proyek tim kecil, serta studi pustaka terhadap literatur relevan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Trello mampu mendukung proses kerja Agile seperti sprint planning, pelacakan backlog, dan daily task secara visual dan kolaboratif. Fitur seperti board, list, card, label, dan checklist mempermudah koordinasi dan meminimalisasi miskomunikasi dalam tim. Meski memiliki keterbatasan pada aspek pelaporan dan analitik, Trello tetap dinilai efektif dan fleksibel, khususnya untuk proyek berskala kecil hingga menengah. Temuan ini memperkuat pandangan bahwa tools digital visual seperti Trello mampu mengintegrasikan prinsip-prinsip Agile dalam praktik kerja harian tim.

In the digital era that demands fast-paced collaboration and work transparency, the Agile methodology has become a widely adopted approach in software development. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of using Trello as a task management tool within the Agile framework. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method through direct observation of Trello usage in a simulated small-team project, combined with a literature review of relevant sources.The findings indicate that Trello effectively supports Agile processes such as sprint planning, backlog tracking, and daily task monitoring in a visual and collaborative manner. Key features like boards, lists, cards, labels, and checklists facilitate coordination and help minimize miscommunication within teams. Although Trello has limitations in terms of built-in reporting and analytics, it is still considered an effective and flexible tool, particularly for small to medium-scale projects. These findings reinforce the perspective that visual-based digital tools like Trello can successfully integrate Agile principles into daily team workflows.
