Kanbanchi for G Suite vs. Shiftboard

• If you need transparency around your workloads the product is great as it is easy to use and visually tells a story.
• It is ideal for SCRUM management as it plays into the ideas of Sprint

It's a great intro into a workforce management tool, but our use of it is basically as a calendar without it being linked to our actual calendars. It's just another tab that we have to keep open throughout our workday. It's great that we're able to see everyone who is working at what time and what channel of support, but I believe that there are visual aids that can be added to it to make everything much easier to read and more user-friendly.

• Great for supporting SCRUM as part of Agile deliveries. We use the ToDo, Doing and Done and build GANNT charts to facilitate resource planning.
• We use it at a department level to manage workloads and help staff know what work is waiting for them and the relative priority.
• We have deployed it across the organisation and also work with suppliers and offshore development teams to coordinate activities.

Incentivized

• Mobile accessibility
• Cloud-based software
• Compliant with all necessary information security standards

• Occasionally hangs at login but this may be to do with our authentication service.
• It would be nice when grouping cards together if there was an option to lay them over each other in a fan arrangement.

Incentivized

• The ability to print a month view of the schedule would be a great benefit.
• The signup list is a great feature, but there are too many steps to make it easy to use.
• The bulk add and delete process works well, but tends to be confusing for users.
