KanBo flexible hierarchy and customization set it apart from other project management solutions. KanBo also features native time tracking as well as two-way email synchronization and a variety of unique views for your work. When it comes to integrations into the Microsoft Ecosystem KanBo provides an unmatched level of integration depth due to its internal architecture that was designed for that purpose.

While there are many considerations when choosing the right software, two most important requirements are: 1) that you and your team are willing and able to learn how to implement and use it, and 2) that it includes the features and integrations you need to organize and execute work (in our case that is the strategic alignment with Microsoft) 

While experimentation and trial and error are great ways to build and improve workflows, many users prefer to start with templates that can then be customized for their specific needs. KanBo provides over 50 of free templates for virtually every experience level and use case.

Because you will likely need to store proprietary information on any solution you choose, it should meet the requirements as stipulated by your IT or operations teams. KanBo goes even further as it is installed on your private cloud (your infrastructure like Azure) or your servers behind a firewall. The data never leaves your environment and is as safe as your infrastructure. Read more on our Security page.

Many platforms offer free trial periods that allow you to test out a product’s features and interface before deciding whether you want to pay for it. KanBo goes one step further by offering a 30–60-day trial of the highest plan at no cost. You have plenty of time to experiment and decide what features will benefit you the most. 

The answer depends on a number of factors, including team size, features required, integration requirements, governance features and more. Most project management tools cost from €10 per user per month for basic plans, up to €60+ per user per month for highly specialized enterprise-level solutions. Learn about KanBo’s pricing here. 

Before canceling your current subscription, ensure you know what tool you want to switch to (if any). Then, make sure that the new solution meets the needs of your organization and that you can import your work from your current tool to the new project management tool. 

In most cases, yes. However, before signing up for a particular platform, make sure it has the import and export capabilities you’ll need. Learn about KanBo data portability here.
