I am an SEO/ASO manager that runs a team of 9 people, all remote. This is a great way to get organized in whatever which way you need to be organized.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I love the flexibility of the boards. You can create any board you or your team may need, making it super flexible. I also love that it is 100% Kanban and only kanban, vs other software that tries to be everything to everybody.

#### Cons

There are some bugs here and there, but the team is always quick to respond and they get fixed very quickly.

#### Reasons for choosing Kanban Zone

Because KanbanZone is actually Kanban, and again it offers more flexibility than anything out there I came across.

#### Reasons for switching to Kanban Zone

Because Jira is for developers and it is very stiff. It can only do limited things. Plus they are a huge company that doesn't listen to the complaints of everyday people. They also make the dumbest updates (like, you spent time on that?!?) and the UI is confusing. Nobody in my company seems to like it except some developers.

#### Vendor response

Thank you, Hilary, for sharing your experience. We are glad Kanban Zone’s flexibility and focus on Kanban support your remote team without unnecessary complexity. Staying true to Kanban while remaining adaptable is a deliberate choice for us. We also appreciate your note on responsiveness. Addressing issues quickly and listening closely to users is something we take seriously.

How I felt after getting all of our work onto our board and realizing how overcommitted we are. Great visibility to our workload, which has allowed us to get a better handle on our caseload.

#### Reasons for choosing Kanban Zone

Kanbanzone was a much better fit for law firm needs than these other products.

#### Reasons for switching to Kanban Zone

Better metrics, wip limits, service expectations. Just a better kanban product.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. We are glad to hear that Kanban Zone has helped make your firm’s workflows visible and uncover bottlenecks. That moment of realizing overcommitment is often uncomfortable, but it is also where real improvement begins. Visibility is the first step toward better decisions.

### Kanban Zone surprisingly feature rich and easy to use

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Stacey L.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Management Consulting
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: May 2024
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

Kanban Zone has improved our productivity and has created new, deeper understanding of our planning and delivery. We've been working Trello for so long - we hadn't realized how much we'd had outgrown it. More importantly, how little value Trello gave us. We assessed a number of other tools like Monday, Jira, Asana, Business Map, and others and they all were underwhelming and expensive. In comparison, Kanban Zone has given us so many insights on how we work and how we can improve. What we didn't realize was that the app is so feature rich... each department in my company is able to customize their own board while still rolling up to our portfolio. We can now use 1 single tool for our work backlog, our portfolio, and our OKRs. Whether you're a Fortune 50 or a small startup, this tool helps accelerate planning and delivery as well as metrics to foster improvement.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Easy to understand hierarchy structure, flexible configuration, workflow, notifications, versatility - able to create custom boards yet still have these roll up to a portfolio. Metrics are easy to capture as well.

#### Cons

Customizing the boards can be tricky. It will take some training but it's well worth while. And if you're not intending to improve your process - that is OK. But once you see your process on a board, you'll start seeing where it needs to be fixed! Also, there are so many features, we've been slowing discovering more that we are enjoying. My recommendation is to have their team help customize the first boards until you totally understand how it all works.

#### Reasons for switching to Kanban Zone

Trello was not able to support our company. Any project that has a very least complexity cannot use Trello out of the box. Or it will take a very long time to customize.

#### Vendor response

We are glad Kanban Zone is helping your teams gain deeper insight into how work flows across boards, portfolios, and planning. You are right that customization takes some guidance at first, and we agree that working with our team early on helps teams unlock value faster. It is especially rewarding to hear that Kanban Zone is now supporting everything from team backlogs to portfolio visibility and OKRs in a single system.

It's the only tool I've ever found or used that is as flexible as a physical Kanban board but not filled with too much features. It's simple to take into use and it has all the essential tools we need to evolve boards as our workflows evolve.

#### Cons

Originally there were some issues with e.g. card descriptions getting overwritten if edited by multiple users, but their team has been fast and active resolving issues

#### Reasons for choosing Kanban Zone

Kanban Zone was the closest thing to physical boards

I could easily change the board to fulfill the needs of the team as we kept finding blockers in our workflow. Changing the boards is easy and useful.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 4/5

#### Pros

The feature to configure the board exactly was I would do a physical board is tremendous. I don´t have to adapt to a different way of working because of the software. I can create a board as I like and visualize between teams without changing the way we think.

#### Cons

The lack of color and fluid design was a shock at first, but after getting used it actually helps to keep your focus on what matters.

#### Reasons for switching to Kanban Zone

Kanban Zone allow me to create the boards any way I like too, plus the metrics are extremely powerful. Visualizing the boards in the way they are built and the way I learned is fantastic.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for sharing this experience. We are glad Kanban Zone lets you work the same way you would with a physical board, without forcing a different way of thinking. That ability to evolve boards as blockers appear is exactly what we aim to support. We also appreciate your note on design and focus. Staying intentional about clarity over decoration helps teams concentrate on the work that matters. Dimitri CEO, Kanban Zone

### Kanban Zone

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Anita D.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Insurance
- Company size: 1001-5000 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years

- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I definitely would like to mention the Customer Support. They have to be the best I have ever worked with. Any time I send an email with questions or issues, they reply within 5 minutes, sometimes within a minute. And if there is a problem, they are on it right away, and fix it within a few hours if not faster. I am always amazed by their positive attitude toward us. We also realized that we can use Kanban Zone as part of our documentation. We went through an internal audit and we had a difficult time of finding corresponding emails or files to our projects, so after the audit we started using the Kanban Zone card numbers on all of our files, emails, and promotion descriptions. Now if we have to go back and find the documentations related to a task or project, we can easily find everything. We also use the description area in the card to include a short description of the problem, and after the issue is resolved, then we add a note of how the issue was resolved, or the location of the files that were created as part of the project.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The Kanban board is very flexible. We can modify it in any way it helps us to manage our projects. I like the reports, the search capabilities and that we can download the cards into Excel. All these help us to quickly and easily create reports of our projects and productivity. I also like the look of the board and the cards. While it might not be important to some people, for me it is very important that everything is organized and pleasant looking. It is very easy to set up a card, keep them in the right work process, and then it feels good when I move a card to the Done column. Conversations with my manager became so much better regarding my projects since we started using Kanban Zone.

#### Cons

There is really nothing I can point out that I don't like about the software. It is so easy to use. There is nothing that bugs me over and over again.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We are glad Kanban Zone is helping improve both project visibility and conversations around work, from reporting and documentation to day-to-day flow. It is also very rewarding to hear that our support team has been responsive and helpful when you needed them. Using cards as a reference point for documentation and audits is a great example of how teams extend the system beyond task tracking. We truly appreciate you sharing this.

#### Pros

How easy it is for me to help my clients get up and running in Kanban Zone. We have made it avaiable, via some educators we have worked with, to 5th - 11th grade students and they required no special training to use the platform to manage their learning.

#### Cons

Mostly the name, Kanban Zone, is not a true representation of the platform's capabilities. Yes, it has everything any agile team, SCRUM or Kanban, could need to manage their work, visualize their process and measure the effectives as a team, over time. But you can also you it to create many other visual tools beyond that of workflow management. We have designed brainstorming and prioritization tools, for example.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for sharing this perspective. We are glad to hear how easily your clients and students were able to get started, especially across such a wide age range. Making the platform intuitive without heavy training is a core goal for us. We also appreciate the feedback on the name. You are right that Kanban Zone is used for much more than workflow management, and insights like this help inform how we communicate the broader capabilities of the platform.

#### Pros

it's a very friendly web tool, that is light to load on the Internet browser, with no lags, or frozen sessions. Works like a web application should work, quick load, great design that makes the interface very easy to use. The card design is amazing, visually tells you everything on what the card is about just with a quick look and it present a lot of features that helps to manage every internal task that a mini project (card) could have. It's easy to use, no training to use is needed once you understand the Kanban principles.

#### Cons

Maybe add visual references that shows in the Board what Cards have a linked, today you can indentify cards with link, but not what are those particular cards linked with.

#### Reasons for switching to Kanban Zone

Tasks, to do list: doesn't have the flexibility that Kanban Zone has. It doesn't shows in a visual manner the flow of the activities you are doing.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for the thoughtful review. We are glad Kanban Zone’s performance, visual clarity, and card design support focused work without added complexity. Keeping the system fast and intuitive is a priority for us. We also appreciate the suggestion around making linked cards more visible on the board. Feedback like this helps us continue improving how relationships between work items are shown.

### Makes Work Fun! :)

Overall, I love that Kanban Zone makes it possible to know exactly what everyone on the team should be doing. It promotes accountability and reduces the team friction caused by vaguely assigned tasks. Moreover, each task is so broken down into smaller tasks that it makes work fun :)

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Finally a software incorporates everything lean and agile! The very popular ones seemed to fancy for me and didn't fully embrace the principles of Kanban. I love that they've kept the UI simple and very easy to use. The design and process also incorporates the core principles of the lean methodology. The Kanban Zone design allows me and other team members to prioritize tasks. It has also drastically reduced 'blame games' in my team because everyone knows exactly who is responsible for a task and can hold them accountable! I'm somewhat of a procrastinator and terrible at planning. Kanban Zone has helped me become organised without even trying hard :) The to-do lists in the Kanban Zone Cards further breaks down each task into very small and easily achievable activities. The best thing about using this tool is that I don't 'forget' important tasks.

#### Cons

I've used Kanban Zone for about five months and really can't find anything bad to say about it. My team members who are new to Kanban methodology say it would be great if they had more in-app guides though.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for such thoughtful feedback. We are glad Kanban Zone is helping your team apply Lean and Kanban principles in a simple, practical way, while improving clarity and accountability. Reducing friction and making responsibilities visible is exactly what the system is designed to support. We also appreciate the suggestion around additional in-app guidance for teams new to Kanban. Input like this helps us continue improving the learning experience.

Recently, I working with a colleague and were planning on an approach on how to bring ideas to a client for evaluation and selection. My colleague asked if I use Trello, and I said “I use Kanban Zone now because it provides greater flexibility in designing boards that fit my personal process. In addition, Kanban Zone has many standard templates that others use that give me the flexibility in getting to work right away”. Within a matter of minutes of the conversation, I created a board, let my colleague name it and schedule a working session to add Kanban cards. After setting the board up and walking through it, my colleague says “Wow, If I could make Trello do cooler stuff, that’s what Kanban Zone can do” already. If you haven’t demoed or played around with KanbanZone.io, what are you waiting for? Head over and take any of the numerous videos, check out a few blogs, and see how “cool” Kanban Zone is at helping you get stuff done.

Being on the sales side it has allowed me direct real-time access to know exactly where in the process a job is at, who is responsible for the current process and any notes to be passed on. Talking with the actual users, they are pleased with the ease of use and takes very limited time to update. It gives them more productive time instead of stopping to answer simple basic questions from my sales team.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

This lets me track where the jobs are in the Engineering process. This allows me to relay this information to my clients without having to interrupt the process and slow down progress.

#### Cons

It ends prior to shipping. This maybe a limit my organization has deemed of limited value, currently.

#### Vendor response

Thank you, Cole. We are glad Kanban Zone is providing real-time visibility into engineering work and helping reduce interruptions between sales and delivery. Giving teams access to accurate status without slowing execution is exactly the intent. We also appreciate the note on where your process currently ends. Understanding how organizations scope their workflows helps inform how the system is used and extended.

Thank you Thomas for this great review. You will be the first to know when we start rolling out public APIs. The goal is to have our fist public API (create a card) in our July release. Based on customer feedback, we will continue to push additional APIs.
