There are four primary types of project tools available:
1) Light project management - Ideal for users that do not have deep project management experience but need a simple yet solid work management tool to track tasks
2) Agile project management - Users predominantly use an Agile project methodology and/or a Kanban approach
3) Standard project management - the primary users have enough experience to leverage a more robust Project Management tool set and Project Managers need more robust functionality than simple task-based tools provide
4) Project and Portfolio Management Tools - software that provides enough project and portfolio management functionality in a single solution
