One board \u2014 4 angles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Having just one way to track your workflows is far from ideal \u2014 you feel restricted, and your creativity is confined to just one way of organization. You can even miss important information or overlook urgent tasks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Plaky, you can view data in 4 different ways \u2014 as a Table, Kanban, Gantt, and Chart. And, more importantly, there\u2019s no limit to how many views you can create. For example, this means you can create a Kanban view that\u2019s based on status, and another one that puts priority in focus for the same project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each view has its own perks, and depending on the role, different team members need different views for their daily work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, check out all the options you have in Plaky. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All-round view of projects in Plaky<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re used to Excel sheets, Plaky\u2019s Table view is a natural upgrade \u2014 it feels like a collaborative spreadsheet. You can view your data on a grid of tasks and fields, but also leave Comments<\/a> to your team members and receive Notifications<\/a> for any change.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Moreover, unlike Excel, where a single change can cause chaos and any more advanced functionality requires a formula, Plaky is adaptable and easy to navigate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In the Table view, you can oversee all tasks neatly organized into colorful fields that help you easily spot important information such as task status or priority. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This makes Table view perfect for project overviews, raid logs<\/a>, and client management<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Still, Table view is not perfect \u2014 that\u2019s why we created additional options for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Table view makes it difficult to see the timeline clearly, but that’s why Gantt charts exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Plus, if you track your project only in the Table view, you might miss potential bottlenecks. For this, you need a Kanban board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Tracking project progress is not easy when you need to keep an eye on your tasks\u2019 progress individually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With Plaky\u2019s Kanban board you can visualize progress of all your projects and see how tasks move through the stages. At a glance, you can see how many of your tasks are in progress, or done, and how many are waiting to be started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you get your board in Kanban view, you see tasks piling up in one column, such as Backlog or In progress. This way, you can rearrange tasks right away, instead of suddenly getting swamped with work. Alternatively, you can allocate more people to the busiest part of the project to prevent bottlenecks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Kanban\u2019s sticky notes design makes it easy to reorganize tasks \u2014 simply drag and drop tasks across the board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s see how Plaky Kanban view works with an example of a sales team that needs to organize their sales pipeline.<\/p>\n\n\n First, the sales manager has to fill the Table view with all the information, including a label field for prospects\u2019 status. Then, they can create a Kanban view and set it up to classify prospects according to their status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This way you can track which stage a prospect is in, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n With a clear distinction between stages, you can clearly see if there are too many tasks lingering in the negotiation stage and never seem to reach the \u201cWon\u201d category. Plus, it\u2019s easy to shift the prospects through stages, naturally going from left to right as they progress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Track progress in Kanban<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re struggling with overlapping tasks you clearly need a good Gantt chart to help you manage tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Plaky\u2019s Gantt Chart is the view intended for tracking project timelines<\/a> and managing project schedules. You can see your project on a custom timeline \u2014 simply decide on the time span you want to look at \u2014 days, months, weeks, quarters, or years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, you can track day-to-day tasks on the level of a week or month. But, you can also have a yearly overview of your goals or long-term plans and tasks. <\/p>\n\n\n The best thing about the Gantt view is that it lets you see tasks overlapping with a single glance and adjust timelines without having to go back to the date fields in Table view. You can shorten and expend tasks or drag them across the timeline to improve your schedule right away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, Plaky\u2019s Gantt chart view is excellent for construction projects. In construction, tasks are very dependent on each other \u2014 you can\u2019t, after all, start working on the roof, before you\u2019ve built walls. So, simply listing tasks in a table isn\u2019t enough. But, in a Gantt chart, you can see if all the tasks are in the right sequence, and spot any resource overruns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Try Plaky\u2019s Gantt chart<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83d\udca1 Dica profissional do Plaky<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want a jumpstart to tracking project timelines, try one of our 11 free templates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Chart view helps you visualize data and measure efficiency.
