I'm trying to get our QC Lab to start using Trello. They get anywhere from 10 to 50 chemicals per day that they need to sample, test, and release. And 3 different departments send them these samples, some on schedule, some as need be. I've thought of putting put a big screen with their Trello todos and showing everyone in the company how they're backlogged or performing on schedule. Anyone have experience with a public read-only Trello board in their offices? What has the reaction been?
How is Trello different from a task list with multiple status values?
e.g.
A shared task list can correspond to a Trello board.
Each task has a status field that can have multiple values (Pending, In Development, Done, In Test, In Beta, In Prod etc). If the list can be grouped by this status field, we have Trello "lists"
I agree that it is similar to a basic task list. For us, the differences are that Trello makes things like values and task assignments easy and clean. It is also a very visual tool, glancing at it can tell you a lot!

Cards are the tasks themselves.
Even Outlook + Sharepoint task list can do this.
