Leantime is worth evaluating with a real project, not an empty workspace. Create a small initiative with goals, milestones, tasks, and a blocked item. Ask a teammate to update it and check whether everyone can tell what is due, who owns it, and why a deadline moved.
Before migrating, try the views your team will actually use, notification noise, permission boundaries, and an export of project data. If the pilot makes weekly planning clearer without duplicating work in another tool, you have a reason to switch; if not, document the friction before committing.
