A whiteboard and a big pack of colored sticky notes works for this. It might sound simplistic, but it's surprising effective. It's difficult to ignore the big board if you hang it in a public area of the office. Pretty shallow learning curve also helps.
I actually think if you're trying to get people to buy in to a methodology such as this, it's easier to start with a physical board and progress to something like Trello. One step at a time.

If I have more than one up-vote to give... this would get it. I find people really underestimate the value of a physical board setup. I agree that it's a vastly better starting point than online tools for most teams if they're in the same location.
