In an interview with Tech Crunch, Michael Pryor, the CEO and co-founder of Trello, stated,
“The desktop app has been on our roadmap and something we’ve wanted to do, but as a scrappy startup we couldn’t do everything at once so we decided to focus on making our mobile and web experiences great for our users. Now under Atlassian, we have the resources to bring things to market faster and can deliver some of our most exciting features yet, like the desktop app.”
Well, it seems that the company has worked hard to make the tool more productive and handy for users. Since the application is free, we believe it will soon become a must-have application for many of us.
