Zenkit Reviews

“I like the visual capabilities”

Pros

I converted from Trello because of the views. However, Trello is better when showing images. With Trello, the image displays nicely in the cards, but with Zenkit, you have to click on the card to see the full image. I like the fields options, especially the reference fields. I am also converting some Evernote projects because I like the visual representation with Zenkit.

Cons

After using Zenkit for an hour or so, my computer (MacBook Air) gets bogged down. I have to restart the computer. When I use the program on my iPad, I don't have the memory problem.

“Great app”

Pros

Very versatile application, allows me to get things done. Good support.

Cons

It takes some time to get into. Some downtimes or slowness occur sometimes.

“Great task manager!”

Pros

The simplicity of the software and its user-friendly interface.

Cons

I was a little confused starting off, but I have it sorted out now.

“Zenkit's different views on my tasks help me get stuff done”

Pros

Very flexible. The different views over the same data really sold it for me. I can brainstorm with a mind map, work on individual tasks on a Kanban board, use a grid for mass maintenance, all over the same data with much less setup overhead than something like Notion. I even use it to plan my holidays.

Cons

Most of my initial frustrations have been addressed. I was frustrated initially with the lack of an API, but they were just prioritizing development, and this is now released. The mind-mapping took a bit of getting used to compared to, say, FreeMind, but not having to re-key anything going from Brainstorm to Kanban made it worthwhile.

“Nothing's perfect but for what I need Zenkit comes close”

Pros

I like that Zenkit treats my list of issues as a database and provides me many ways to look at it and manipulate it. This was the initial hook for me and it's kept me hooked. I can view my issues as a list, a kanban board, a table, a hierarchy, and a mind map. These are just the views I use.

Cons

The user interface took a bit of getting used to. My issues can become cluttered as I add more custom fields. I am still getting used to how the filters work as well.

“Great Tool for our business”

Pros

Zenkit is easy and fast and offers great features.

Cons

Actually, there is nothing. But we are looking forward to further functions.

“Beautifully tracks my business processes and assets”

Pros

it is very affordable with a sleek interface that is very intuitive. There is excellent documentation for its many uses as well as video tutorials and blogs that are invaluable to new users.

Cons

The data storage limits are relatively low. Free users can store up to 1GB of file attachments, but "Plus" users ($9/mo) only receive 6GB.

“Not Very Intuitive”

Pros

this software seemed to have quite a lot of features. There seemed to be a lot of different capabilities. The different options available seemed a little bit overwhelming.

Cons

I did not like how the software was not very intuitive. I needed a simple to-do list, but everything seemed like it was too complicated.

“Relax and let zen kit do it”

Pros

I love how easy it is to use and how much stress it takes off of me. I could not ask for a better way to organize.

Cons

I do not care for the website's first appearance, but that is just my opinion. I think it does not do the app justice.

“A great Trello alternative”

Pros

It is simple, easy to use, and very user-friendly. I love the Zenkit views which are data views of things like Kanban boards, List, Calendar, Table, and Mindmap. These views help me visualize my tasks in ways that suit me, and in just one click too.

Cons

Nothing. There is not much to dislike about this software at all, and this is a solid project management application.

“Simple & Organized”

Pros

The best thing about Zenkit is how many different options are available for me to use to store information. I really like the mind map option. Zenkit makes it easy to organize my work life. It is very beneficial to have one place where I can track my goals and projects. It is also not too complicated for users.

Cons

No cons to report here. Even the price of the upgraded version is not too bad, unlike some other services on the market.

“Helpful task management”

Pros

It makes it simple to communicate and collaborate on work. Great tool for teams.

Cons

Some of the features are a little advanced for me...

“Agile Project Management Made Easy”

Pros

Zenkit stood out with its super user-friendly interface, abundant templates, and comprehensive documentation to kickstart your journey. I am genuinely excited to unleash the full potential of this fantastic piece of software.

Cons

When I use Zenkit, I've had nothing but an excellent experience; I have not encountered any drawbacks.

“kinda like it”

Pros

The visuals are captivating, especially the mind map functionality.

Cons

I can not add extra photos or icons to Kanban cards unless I pay for it.

“Best tool for Project Management”

Pros

It is a simple and user-friendly project management application that I can easily navigate. Whether it is team projects or individual tasks related to academia or industry, Zenkit makes it effortless to handle. Its plethora of features like team Inbox, bulk actions, and drag-and-drop task and project management, along with mind mapping functions, caters to various operating systems.

Cons

Sometimes it gets distracting. If our group exceeds 5 members, upgrading to a premium plan becomes necessary, which poses a significant challenge.

“Hustle free software”

Pros

I appreciate the ease of use this software offers. My project managers are delighted with its features, such as customizable templates, which were previously unknown to our software development team.

Cons

I found it difficult initially due to the lack of proper documentation.

“The perfect project management tool to keep you organized”

Pros

Transitioning from using Trello for everything to discovering Zenkit was a game-changer. The additional features not available in Trello, coupled with its high level of customization, have revolutionized how our entire startup team and I organize both work and personal life.

Cons

There is quite a bit of movement since Zenkit is still a startup. The layout changes frequently, occasional bugs pop up, and features are constantly evolving. However, this can be a plus if you want a system that's continuously improving.

“Zenkit Makes My Workflow 1000% Easier”

Pros

it is completely customizable and provides all the features I need to manage a large and rapidly updating pool of law school applicants. It allows me to stay on top of each potential student in a way that makes sense for me, unlike the standardized software solutions selected by the larger organization.

Cons

I do not have any complaints or feel the need for additional features for my specific needs.

“Zenkit analysis”

Pros

I find the Mind Map feature incredibly easy to use and functional. I love how it helps in organizing columns and clustering tasks.

Cons

I can not easily view Gantt Charts for project management.

“Amazing Project Management Tool”

Pros

Zenkit has been a lifesaver for the projects I manage. The ability to work offline is crucial for me, and Zenkit delivers on that front. Its efficient task organization, good functionality, and simple navigation make learning the software a breeze.

Cons

The only downside I found is some minor bugs, but they usually get fixed after updates.
