   Easy agile, made for teams

   The UI is so clean, it makes it desirable to use. Reporting is very easy to understand - without any of the complexity that comes with creating reports (like in Jira). I like that it has an opinion - it’s built around agile’s best practices. Easy to reprioritize in between sprints, and the sprint board is easy to understand so it’s great for first time agile teams.

   🏁 Competitors: Jira, Asana, Trello, Wrike, monday.com

   👍 Pros:    Sprint focused|Easy to use|Information is easily accessible|Easy integration|Unlimited users|No sign up cost|Great customer support|Automation and custom functions|Slack integration

   👎 Cons:    No mobile app atm|Occasional bugs

   More time doing stuff that actually matters

   My team has always worked adhoc on everything without properly using a project management tool. Once we adapted our workflow to Tara, it worked wonders for our organization. Tasks are easily grouped under umbrellas (Requirements, i.e. Epics in Jira) and everything is so visual that it's never painful to actually manage your tasks. Sprints make it easy to see what you need to get done this week, and we run daily standups using that view.

   Highly recommend Tara to smaller teams that just need to focus on getting stuff done.

   👍 Pros:    User friendly interface|Great set of functions

   Pros, Cons

   I love DocFetcher! I discovered this gem of a program when Windows stopped supporting string searches in word processors other than Word.

   🏁 Competitors: the generic string search available in Windows, Agent Ransack, Locate32, Everything by Voidtools

   👍 Pros:    Beautiful intuitive interface. easy to use, once you set up the index.

   👎 Cons:    If you have a large collection of files to index, you will eventually be unable to search all your documents at the same time. you have to set up separate indexes and search each one separately. available in a variety of versions, up to 64 bit.|The help files are good. however, learning how to set up an index can be frustrating.

• I was going to quit and my coworker just put in her two weeks

  Great advice overall, but I would centralize this list in an app dashboard, e.g., Tara.ai, Azure DevOps, Jira, etc., and automate the outbound updates to the C-suite douche patrol. Source: about 2 years ago

• Tool to parse, index, and search local documents? - Windows

  I use https://docfetcher.sourceforge.net/en/index.html to index and search large repos of docs. I use Papermerge for my digital file cabinet though. DocFetcher is good for searching an existing repository of files. Source: about 1 year ago

• Docfetcher is a cross-platform free and open source desktop search application

  As they state, it is crap-free, free forever, cross-platform, portable, private (local only), and indexes only what you need. You can also set minimum and maximum file sizes to index. See https://docfetcher.sourceforge.net/en/index.html. Source: over 1 year ago

• Career Advice for a fresh graduate who wants to enter Structural Engineering field

  What I'd recommend is setting up a digital and/or physical technical library. Download any useful documents, books, standards etc. and store them in a clear, concise folder structure. Then create an index of the library with a tool like DocFetcher. (Think of it as Google for your technical library) This should make it fast and easy to find the relevant information when you need it. Source: over 1 year ago

• How do you organize yourself?

  I use Outlook for e-mail and calendars. I use Evernote to store my notes. I also have a folder in Dropbox called "docs" where I store TXT (and others like DOCX and PDF etc) files for tasks/projects like the cisco firmware update example. I use DocFetcher (https://docfetcher.sourceforge.net/en/index.html) to perform search on the stored notes in TXT / DOCX / PDF / etc. Source: over 1 year ago
