Bring your team on board and assign them to tasks so everyone knows what needs to be done, and when.
With your people aligned around the same goals, your project has more chance to be completed on time and to a high standard. It provides clarity, accountability, and collaboration.
Keeping all project-related files in one place can help you increase productivity, improve collaboration and ensure version control.
With all files in one place, team members can easily access what they need without searching through multiple folders. This can save your team a lot of time.
In Plaky you have the option to choose from three different types of view (Table, Kanban & Gantt view) and to customize the board view, to fit your particular needs. This can help you stay organized and focus on the most critical tasks.
This way it’s much easier to track progress, prioritize tasks, manage workflow, collaborate effectively, and complete projects on time and within budget.
By monitoring team activity through logs and notifications, project managers can hold team members accountable for their work. They can see who is working on what, how long each task takes, and whether or not deadlines are being met.
Controlling edit permissions for board members in Plaky can help ensure that sensitive information is protected, and that only authorized team members can make changes to the project.
In Plaky you can either create a board from scratch or choose one of the many pre-configured templates suited for different teams & industries.
Navigate to the Space menu at the top left corner and:
1. Choose new board from the drop down.
2. Choose create from scratch or create from template
3. If creating from scratch just enter the board name.
With Plaky, you can manage your Team Members within your Board. Invite any Team Member, or the entire Team to the Board, or share the Board with them.
Board Owner can set access permissions to other Members. They can either Edit everything, Edit content or Write updates only.
The next step is to add tasks to the board. Item represents any type of task, assignment or responsibility that is part of the project and should be completed.
To add item:
1. Click +Add placed below Item Group on Board.
2. Enter Item name in field that appears (e.g. Content Editing)
3. Press Enter on keyboard.
Fields represent any type of data that can be added to your Items and help you organize and complete the Items on your Board in the most efficient way (e.g. text, link, status, person…).
To add field:
1. Click the + button located at the top right of the Item Group.
2. Choose field type from the dropdown
3. Add field types one by one.
Person Field allows you to assign tasks to your Team Members, or check who in your team is responsible for which task.
You only need to create the Field from the dropdown and select the person. That can be the Member of your Board, or your Team Member.
