They're here! Kanban boards are now in Quickbase. Kanban is a way of visualizing the progression of work through a system. Visual systems draw focus on what's important, help drive action, and increase engagement. If you've found Kanban cards useful in tools like Trello or Jira, get ready to take them to the next level with the power and flexibility of Quickbase!

Are you tracking any of these processes with your Quickbase?

  • Programs or projects from Not Started to Completed
  • Sales leads from Inquiry to Conversion

  • The list goes on...
