Trello grew because it was very KISS. The features were so-so but everyone could use it easily. Atlassian just purchased the bottom segment of the project market, the segment that would never use JIRA in a million years because of it's complexity.

Yep, they're consolidating the market and becoming a bigger monopoly. At almost every company, and especially the large ones, JIRA is the "tool" that is used.

I keep wondering whatever happened to all the other tools out there because everyone in corporate life has consolidated on this big complex tool. Maybe all other project and task management tools were too open/open source? Didn't feel enterprise-y enough for managers?
