Kanbanchi Reviews & Product Details

Kanbanchi is a powerful project management tool that seamlessly integrates with Google Workspace or Microsoft, including Google Drive or OneDrive, Gmail or Outlook, Calendar, Forms, SharePoint, and more. It features an intuitive Kanban board, Gantt Chart, Time Tracker, and more built-in tools designed specifically for Google and Microsoft users. The Google Kanban board visualizes workflows for your tasks and activities, letting teams collaborate in real-time and manage projects visually within the Google environment! The Microsoft Kanban board works similarly for Microsoft users. As the only project management tool natively integrated with Google Workspace, Kanbanchi offers unmatched convenience. Sign up with your Google account and work with project boards stored directly in your Google Drive, sharing them effortlessly with colleagues. Kanbanchi provides flexible access permissions and a familiar interface with no learning curve - simply deploy Kanbanchi to all your organization's users from the Google Admin Console. The Microsoft version can also be accessed with a Microsoft account, and it works similarly in the Microsoft environment. Kanbanchi has high security standards. Your files remain on YOUR Google Drive with authentication managed by Google. This Google task management system is SOC2 Type II, ISO 27001, and CASA certified, GDPR and PCI DSS compliant, and follows HIPAA rules. Kanbanchi needs some permission to access certain parts of your Google Drive because Kanbanchi doesn’t store data on its side. All your files and sensitive information are stored in your Google Drive. However, the app should be able to operate within your Google Drive.

What do you dislike about Kanbanchi?

Gantt chart is only available for the paid version but since the core features are available for free, I am okay with that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Kanbanchi:

Make use of the free trial for the pro version. But the free version is already great in itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kanbanchi solving and how is that benefiting you?

Kanbanchii helped me manage an event and collaborate with teammates online through a web app. It is very helpful that it is fully integrated with G Suite because we mainly use Google applications in our work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very easy to use tool"

5/5

What do you like best about Kanbanchi?

I can organize an agile board for free using Kanbanchi. It allows customizing columns, the names and the number of them as well.

It is possible to label the items with colors to differentiate the nature of each one.

The items can be fragmented in subtasks (other related items), and when the related items are marked as completed, the item to which they are related to will be also marked as completed.

Items can be marked as complete so you don't have to see the details to find out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kanbanchi?

In the unpaid version, it doesn't allow the user to test the items.

Kanbanchi allows the user to create the board to assign the items to its user, but it doesn't let that user assign the items to other users even if the board was shared with editing rights (at least the unpaid version). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple and Clean"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Kanbanchi?

Kanbanchi has a clean and simple interface; I think that's immediately obvious to anyone who uses it. Its integration with G Suite is a huge bonus for a lot of organizations and surely saves a lot of people plenty of headaches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kanbanchi?

The fact they chose a subscription model bothers me. I don't feel like it's necessary. The personal package totals to $96 dollars a year, the professional adds up to $240 annually. It's a fairly simple scheduling program with a fancy name from familiar business practice. However, if it saves your IT guys (or other project members) hours trying to configure other software with G Suite, I certainly think it's worth it. The interface and the boards don't seem as pretty as they could be, but maybe that's just my lack of artistic talent shining through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Kanbanchi:

If your organization is heavily dependent on G Suite then this is a pretty good option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kanbanchi solving and how is that benefiting you?

I initially installed Kanbanchi while researching Kanban methods for a Six Sigma course and then revisited it later when I was hired to work on a Kanban-style scheduler for a healthcare company. For this project we used...Kanbanchi. We didn't have a lot of docs (about 3 spreadsheets and 4 company papers of varying lengths), it helped out. I imagine it could help a lot more with a larger project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredibly useful!"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Kanbanchi?

Extensibility and customizability! The Drive integration and other tie-ins to the gSuite are very helpful for managing complex projects simultaneously. Other features that allow users to customize their boards really set Kanbanchi apart from other options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kanbanchi?

Really wish the UI had clearer distinctions between the features that come with the free version and those that require the upgrade. This would be particularly helpful when sharing boards with colleagues/collaborators who just need to be consulted or informed on projects, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good and easy to use software"

5/5

What do you like best about Kanbanchi?

It is simple, straight to the point and very flexible which is why it can be applied to any project. It is an interesting version of original Kanban methodology and it works bug free, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kanbanchi?

It is a bit open to all users and I think they will need to work on their user access levels. Admin should be able to lock things, even tasks otherwise a simple mistake can change or remove a task that can be critical for a project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you are after a Card based Scrum PM software that is light and easy. go for it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best of the Best"

5/5

What do you like best about Kanbanchi?

I love the visualization that this product provides. I have tried a lot of different project management tools and this by far surpasses them all.

Everything else just gives me lists where I have to view all projects or filter projects. Here, I can see every project and all the stages that it’s in.

Plus, it’s easy to see who is assigned a card, add subtasks and sub-cards, etc. plus, I can color coordinate so all my projects that belong to a particular client are all the same color! And you can even link different cards/projects together! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kanbanchi?

It’s not so much a dislike, but more of a wishing I had better control over other users’ access.

While I want everyone to be able to access the board, I wish there was a way that people could only see the cards they were assigned to.

That being said, the privacy of Google Drive allows me to make sure only those who should have access to sensitive documents are the only ones who can see it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kanbanchi solving and how is that benefiting you?

Kanbanchi is acting as our project management solution for a publishing company. I was able to make a list for upcoming, editing, marketing, and design within our dashboard.

Now we can easily see, all in one spot without having to go through multiple screens, where our books stand. I hadn’t even thought about how it would save time waiting for new windows or pages to load! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The right tools for the right job"

5/5

What do you like best about Kanbanchi?

I enjoy the way everything is visual, colours, Icons, completion status. It makes it easy to get an overview very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kanbanchi?

I don't dislike anything as such. However, it would be great to have an option to have a view that merges all boards to enable you to capture all cards assigned to you Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
