Hello-
We have a small team of developers (3 right now) who support a few hundred customers with banking related applications.
Right now we are challenged with collecting and managing user requirements for projects as well as having a record of the project structure itself. We have a bunch of loose emails, Word documents and that is not efficient.
We are currently evaluating Jira, Wrike and Liquid planner.
We are looking for PM software recommendations that can:
1) Manage projects
a) Provide an easy to use visual hierarchy of Projects/Tasks/Sub-tasks and version control
2) Communication with customers to collect and manage project requirement documents
a) Ability for multiple people to work on a single requirements document.
a) Ability for projects/tasks/sub-tasks to link to requirement or status documentation
3) Provides views of project status, roadblocks
4) Supports MS file types, links within documents, Wiki, Blogs
Any incite to a software package would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

You may use MS Project to develop a hierarchy of Projects/Tasks/Sub-tasks and export this to Visio, obtaining WBS Structure. To visualize all in a panel, complement with Trello. that allows to share the information with any member of the team and clients. Saving Changes...
I've used Jira, Trello, CA Rally, Smartsheet, Podio, Cherwell, Planview and a few others.
Jira will confuse non-technical people, so if you expect customers to use it, good luck.
If you are Agile, CA Rally was very easy to use. Podio is collaboration tool, not really a PM tool, but it could do some of these tasks. Saving Changes...
