I know there are many here that are looking for a good task/project management and collaborative workspace.

Once common space to plan out projects, set deadlines and schedules, communicate with outsourced workers, share files, calendar, etc.

I've been using groupcamp.com and it's been the best for my needs so far but I just started testing out Podio and holy shit, it's what I've been waiting for.

You can setup workspaces for individual projects and add your freelancers to the individual workspaces only allowing them access to what they absolutely need. I know many of you have multiple projects you're working on at once with multiple people working on different things.

The big thing for me is the ability to attach files from a number of sources. One of the best for me is Evernote integration. Use Dropbox, Skydrive or Box.com? You're good to go too.

The Scansnap scanner and Evernote marriage has been heaven when it comes to not only clearing out paper clutter in the office but making digital document storage easy, secure and searchable. One button push and it's done. Rarely fucks up a scan. Works like it should.

Now I can scan anything directly into Evernote and then just attach it to any task I need to directly from Podio.

There is also a Gmail widget that allows to you to take any email and turn it into a task directly from Gmail.

I'm not convinced?

Are you using it yourself? How does it triump over basecamp and similar softwares?

BTW, someone posted a project management which updated in real time ... anyone remember what it was?

I just started but a quick run through tells me it's exactly what I've been looking for. For me it's being able to control user access and intuitiveness. So many task start with an email so to be able to create a new task and assign responsibility, due date, project right from the email puts it ahead of most contenders.

I've tried Basecamp 10 times and hate it every time.
