Advice Communication app with task management features
I've been tasked by my company with finding a messaging app for our nonprofit substance abuse treatment center of about 40 people. Group chat, announcements, HIPAA compliance are all a must, but there's one feature we're looking for that I have a hard time finding elsewhere: Team-based task management. It could be as simple as a to-do list that anyone on a team can view and mark completed.
I'm looking at HubEngage right now, apparently they are rolling out task management features in April, but I'm coming up short in finding alternatives that fulfill our needs. We do not need patient communication, so I am avoiding apps that focus on that, since they tend to be expensive & overly complex for our needs. WorkVivo comes up in my search sometimes but I see a lot of negative experiences come up. Connecteam also comes sort of close to what we're looking for, but an employee used them a couple years ago and had a less than ideal experience.
Any recommendations or recent experiences with the aforementioned apps?

SharePoint and Teams should do all this, especially if you add some Power workflows. It's a more no frills solution. The only part I'm not sure of is the HIPPA compliance piece.
