1
Project Management in SharePoint Online

Visualize your SharePoint tasks in colorful and convenient Scrum boards with Kanban Board by Virto. Each SharePoint list item is displayed as a highly customizable kanban card and grouped horizontally and vertically according to the status and type of the task.

With the Kanban Board app for Microsoft 365, you can quickly create and adjust boards in a couple of clicks.

2
Project Management in Microsoft Teams

Add a customized Kanban Board to your Microsoft Teams as a separate tab. This helps to minimize context switching between SharePoint and Microsoft Teams. The kanban boards in Microsoft Teams inherit user permissions from SharePoint and are invisible to external users in Teams.

 

3
Quick Boards for an Immediate Start

Quick boards are the easiest way to start working with boards and tasks: the app will create a default SharePoint list with all the required fields and preferences. Just start and go!

Kanban Board Pro supports saving board templates. Once you’ve saved any board as a template file, you can use it later to create new boards in a minute.

4
Swimlanes for Grouping Tasks

Use any “choice” type field as swimlanes for your kanban board. Quickly move tasks between swimlanes or change a swimlane field directly on the board for convenient task grouping.

5
Color-Coding and Tags for Kanban Cards

Select fields to display on cards, attach or display images, and add file attachments on this agile kanban board solution. Color-code kanban cards according to custom conditions (users, projects, urgency, and more). You can specify body color and even add labels (tags) to cards.

6
Subtasks for Efficient Planning

Use subtasks to split large tasks and work on them step by step. Managing complex tasks is easier with this feature. Speed up task management by making an existing task a subtask instead of creating a new one from scratch.

7
Feature-Rich Notification System with Alerts and Reminders app

It’s so convenient to have one space for your teamwork with Kanban Board Pro’s flexible notifications system! Thanks to Alerts and Reminders app, that comes together with Kanban Board Pro, you and your team can track most of the changes made to the board, for example, if a task is moved to the next stage, a due date is changed, or if you were assigned a new task. With the app, you can also set up reminders and get notified on upcoming deadlines.

8
Visual Board Reports with Charts

Controlling performance and efficiency just got easier with a statistical chart view of a Kanban board. Use charts to analyze the work of your team—see task status and assignee charts, completion charts, and burndown charts. You can quickly see whether tasks are completed on time or overdue, which helps to improve planning.

9
Permission System and Roles

Configure permissions related to SharePoint task management with Kanban Board Pro. A SharePoint administrator can assign permission to edit all the project tasks to certain users or user groups. By assigning users read-only permission, you ensure they can manage only their assigned tasks.

Manage Tasks and Projects Using Kanban Board

Kanban Board Pro for Microsoft 365 is a convenient and agile tool for managing, visualizing, and filtering tasks in SharePoint Online and Microsoft Teams. Display any SharePoint tasklist or library in a Kanban board view, drag & drop cards (i.e., tasks) between custom columns and swimlanes, or color-code them by type. The additional filters and statistic charts of Kanban Board help you analyze and adapt the work process and optimize resources.

Start your free 30-day trial of Kanban Board Pro by Virto and continue to use it for up to three users without any payments. It works perfectly with Microsoft Teams and can be added as a separate tab.

Our Kanban Board App for SharePoint Online and Microsoft Teams is also a part of the Virto ONE Cloud plan.

An excellent Kanban tool for MS Teams - extremely customizable and adaptable! Since I conduct most of my work within Teams, for me the ability to have a board within the app is crucial. I also appreciate its user-friendly time tracking for various projects and the ability to generate reports for clients.

For me personally quick boards are time savers.. my team uses them in their daily activities and they're enough, thanks Virto.
April 25, 2023
The swimlanes feature is my favourite, why I haven't seen it in other boards? To avoid creating too many boards, thanks to swimlanes we run several projects within the marketing team on the same board.
May 12, 2022
Really agile kanban view with an ability to adjust a board notification message as you wish. Good functionality for a reasonable price. Support responds very quickly.
April 8, 2022
Great ms teams Kanban tool for managing projects – highly adjustable and personalizable. As my primary work process proceeds in the MS Teams, I was so delighted when Virto released the ability to add a kanban board into channels! In addition, I like that this is easy to track time spent on different projects and produce reports for client billing. My rate is 5/5!
August 22, 2021
It works very stable and covers my needs in monitoring the status workload, analyzing and correcting the work process, and optimizing resources. Moreover, this kanban tool configures really straightforwardly, not much technical kmowledge is needed to set it up. I'd like to draw your attention to the feature of visualizing boards report with charts! It's worth implementing in every work process.
January 23, 2021
It definitely exceeded my expectations! I am a newbie to agile task management and tools, so I asked the Virto team for a demo with a detailed walk-through for my case. It made setting the board up super easy, even though for my different projects I use “quick board” feature! And there is an ability to create it from templates.
April 8, 2020
This Office 365 Kanban tool has tons of wanted features! It's flexible and intuitive. In general, that is a great all-around product. So many options are available to adjust the board exactly as I needed for our project! Like!
