A Kanban board tied to the plan

A standalone task board quickly loses its connection to the project's objectives. The Kanban board in Projektiassistent shows the tasks that are in the plan and the schedule — move a card to done and progress, reporting and the Gantt view update with it.

01 / Day-to-day work

A clear picture of what is happening now

Kanban answers the question "what is in progress and who is on it". The answer comes from the same data that planning and reporting run on.

🔀

Columns and flow

To do → In progress → In review → Done. Columns can be renamed and added to fit the project.

👤

Owners and deadlines

Every card carries an owner and a due date — delays surface before they turn into problems.

🏷️

Labels and priorities

Filter cards by phase, owner or priority once the board grows.

🔗

Linked to the plan

Each card is an activity in the project plan — not a separate list somebody has to sync by hand.

02 / Why it is different

Tasks that know which project they belong to

The weakness of a classic task board is lost context: a card has a title but no objective, no budget and no effect on deadlines. Here that context travels with it.

  • 🎯 Every task ties back to an objective. You can see which project deliverable a card serves — even a year into the project.
  • 📊 Progress comes from the work. Reporting is not a separate chore: card movement is the project's progress data.
  • 🧭 Portfolio view. Several projects at once — see where people are overloaded and which project needs attention.

03 / Methodology

Kanban or something else — your call

Kanban suits continuous flow, Gantt suits deadline-driven projects and Scrum suits a team working in sprints. You can switch views without rebuilding the project.

Frequently asked questions about Kanban

What is a Kanban board?

A Kanban board is a visual view of tasks where work moves left to right through columns (e.g. To do → In progress → Done). The point is to see at a glance what is in flight and where work is piling up.

How is Kanban different from Scrum?

Kanban is a continuous-flow method with no fixed time box. Scrum works in sprints of a set length and scope. Kanban suits ongoing work; Scrum suits a development team.

What languages are supported?

The whole environment is available in Estonian, English and Russian.

Do I have to choose between Kanban and Gantt?

No. The same project can be seen in both — Kanban for daily work, Gantt for the schedule and deadlines.

Does the board work across several projects?

Yes. The portfolio view brings tasks from several projects together and shows where resources are overloaded.
