Super Flexible, 100% Kanban
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.
PROSI 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.
CONSThere are some bugs here and there, but the team is always quick to respond and they get fixed very quickly.
Reason 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.

Easily configure your Kanban board however you want
I was searching for a kanban tool that allows me to configure my kanban boards however I want them to be: multiple swimlanes, multiple workflows, multiple columns, multiple sub-columns, all configured with their own WIP limits if needed. Kanbanzone is the only tool that allows me to do all this in a super easy way !
CONSThe ability to visually locate a card on the Kanban board from search
Reason for choosing Kanban Zone
None of the products allowed me to configure kanban boards as flexible as Kanban Zone in a super easy and affordable way

Good tool for development team
While I'm not the administrator, it seems to be very configurable.
CONSThere are times the board is very cluttered. This can be due to how the administrators configured it.
Vendor Response
Yes, Kanban Zone is designed for the administrator role to configure the Kanban boards. If you feel that the board is cluttered or could be improved, then do contact your board administrator. Since your organization is on an Enterprise plan, we include coaching services to help your administrators continuously improve their Kanban expertise. Thank you for your valuable feedback and let's improve your board together.

Visualizing Kanban Boards as if it would be on a physical paper or whiteboard
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.
PROSThe 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.
CONSThe 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.

Kanban Zone
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.
PROSThe 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.
CONSThere 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.
