Researcher

One of the most amazing characteristics though is that any data can be relational - pretty much like in a RDB - and you can create your own data structures to organize yourself as you prefer.

Office Manager 

This program does not only work great for business it doubles as an amazing personal organizational tool for the home.

Principal Consultant

The flexibility is superb and the UI is highly usable. The feature set is still growing, but it is great that new features do not introduce a burdensome complexity.

I like the individual backgrounds (for fun). I highly appreciate the wtwo-way Google Calendar integration that gives me an overview of my day and week.

Graduate Research Assistant

Customer support is outstanding. There are also a lot of nice features, such as cross-referencing and formulas that are very handy.

Founder

Flexible customization, functional,  inventive design, friendly and helpful support and a affordable pricing.

Senior Consultant

Free version fully equiped, super customer care, really nice brand identity.

Sr. Software Engineer

The Only thing I miss in zenkit is the lack of native mobile apps.

Editorial Content Strategist

I also use it to track business expenses, save receipts and other documents, and control my work calendar. I love that I can access is on both my desktop and phone.

Chief Innovator and Marketing Strategist

A very clean and clearly outlined project management software, that has many great features, integrations with a lot of other systems and offline access as well as apps.

Assistant Project Manager

Inexpensive: I'm currently using the free option which comes with a lot of features. Format options: Love the ability to switch back and forth between different formats (Kanban, List, Schedule, etc.).

This is the best collaborative tool I've ever used for task management with a remote team. The interface is very clean and intuitive.

Operations and Compliance

The best thing about Zenkit is how many different options are available for you to use to store information. I really like the mind map option.

IT Coordinator

The simplicity of the software and its user friendly interface.

Architect

After awhile you get in the habit of clearing the end date. I do miss from Trello how a checklist item can be made into a Kanban Card by a click.

Sales

There is no option to add additional photos or icons to Kanban cards until you pay.

owner

I am also converting some Evernote projects because I like the visual representation with Zenkit.

Developer

Most of my "leasts" have been addressed. I was frustrated initially with the lack of an API, but they were just prioritising development and this is now released.

 After reading several helpful articles on how to use it, as well as some theories about organizing tasks (Getting Things Done, among others), I started using it to organize by daily workflow and keep track what what I had to do. It's really been a huge catalyst in changing how prioritize task and keep track of what I need to do at home, work, and on the go. 

Really love Zenkit and use it on daily basis to organize by tasks

Quick Statement 

I've tried a lot of productivity systems.  List makers, calendar integrations, total package GTD-type apps, pen and paper, homegrown, etc.  Zenkit is the only one that has had the flexibility to handle all the various hats I need to wear.  I can have one list for my business development, one for my creative work, a complete system for CRM and all in different formats, Kanban, Lists, Mindmapping, etc.  I've been using it for about 6 months and have really tweaked it to work exactly for my needs.

I've tried them all and Zenkit is the only one I've stuck with.

Trello new plans have made me hunt for a new software I found zenkit to be the perfect alternative for that. I like the simple UI of zenkit. They have apps for every platform which is really good. I have shifted from trello to zenkit and I'm really happy 

Best alternative to Trello

Powerful project management and productivity system

The main use I have for Zenkit is to manage software changes in a validated environment. Each change request hs it's own card which is then tracked through the development and validation process and into production. The cards contain references to cards representing requirements, design and test documents that need to be updated as part of the change. Individual tasks for the change are presented in check lists and the review and approval cycles are managed in seperate check lists. 

A fantastic tool

Hi David!
Thank you very much for your review. :) We thoroughly appreciate your feedback.

For someone who is serious about keeping track of tasks, this app works better than any other. The learning curve can be steep, but that's only because of the unique level of customizability that this app offers.

More features than any other

Indispensable!

Thank you Roberto! We're so glad to hear that Zenkit supports your GTD efforts, and that you've had such a great experience with our team :)

Currently using this for my personal life and work life to keep my projects on track. Works great forth both!

Excellent, Inexpensive: PM & Tracking Tool 

I use Zenkit to keep track of my tasks at work. It has replaced all of my sticky notes that I used to use to keep track of my to do list. I can now easily prioritize items, take a quick glance at everything I need to do, and check things off. I also use one of the columns to track talking points with my one on one with my boss. I absolutely love it! 

Love this software! 

Hi Nicole!
Thank you so much for your kind review. :) There will soon be an update of the mindmap view, stay tuned! Grouping items inside the mindmap view rigorously sound very interesting. If you don't mind, please feel free to go into detail regarding your great suggestion in an email to service@zenkit.com. :)

Awesome support team.  Had a question about downloading archived data into a flat file, got a response within minutes and had a good conversation about the desired feature.  Team built it into their revision the next day and sought feedback.  Absolutely fantastic response time and personal interaction.

Excellent product and support

Thank you so much for your kind review! We're so glad to hear that your experience with our support team has been so positive. 

Amazing highly flexible tool for customized task organization

Thank you for your review, Vanessa! We're glad you are able to use Zenkit to organize and structure your tasks so easily.

In the startup that we are creating we use zenkit to organize our tasks according to the objectives set and the times available to each person. This also makes it easier for us to work remotely without having to organize regular meetings. Everyone knows what to do in each 2-week sprint and can see the progress of the project. It also helps us to detect where there are problems, attending to cards that are abandoned for a while, and allows us to react and modify the strategy when necessary.



zenkit is the perfect tool to work in a transparent and organized way

Thank you so much for your review, and for sharing your use case! We're so pleased to hear that you find Zenkit so intuitive and helpful.

I have used it for Opportunity management (sales), Scrum (delivery of system) and various smaller business and personal projects.

The most flexible, lean and easy to use solution for Project managers

Hi Søren,
Thank you so much for your kind review! We're glad to hear you're enjoying the flexibility of the Kanban view. I've noted your request regarding a list of labels to pop up after entering the # and sent it to our dev team. 

It has allowed me to deliver my work quickly, using different tools in one without losing any kind of information in the compilation process. I do not forget any activity

Great tool for Kanban-like project management and to collect other data for a team

Hi Iris,
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We really appreciate you sharing your ideas. Your requests for improvements to My Team have been sent to our dev team. 

Flexible views give me everything I need to organize my tasks, projects, goals, and teams. Having one central location for all this information and being able to quickly adapt it to meet my current needs puts Zenkit in a class of its own.

Zenkit is my go to task and project management app, and for good reason!

Thank you so much for your lovely review! Please feel free to get in touch if you have any ideas or feature requests!

It's a time saver. Actually, it's a real life saver for me!

Cannot live without it anymore!

Hi Tania,

Thank you so much for your lovely review! I'm glad the learning curve was worth it for you.

Streamlined the workflow of an agile dev team. A lot of friends are also using them to manage their personal lives

Flexible and Customizable Agile Tool

Hi Rizwaan,
